I'm not quite sure how they carried out the investigation but I would have thought that after 4 months they would have found this out. If the investigators wanted to show complete transparency then why didn't they get the PM's office to invoke article 44 to get the watchmakers to name names. After all, Article 44 has been used for much less serious cases, especially as in this case, transparency and anti-corruption are the main issues. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tigermoth Posted March 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2018 Disgusting display of cronyism. The people at the top from the Junta leader down should be totally ashamed of themselves. They are forcing the common Thai to start having serious thoughts about change. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ronaldo0 Posted March 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2018 When you buy these watches they usually ask you to fill out a few things for warranty and service purposes. I took an omega back to siam paragon to adjust the strap after I bought it there 5 years ago and they knew where I bought it etc from the serial numbers on the watch. I didn't even have the purchase and authentication cards that come with it with me . Not difficult at all to find out where they were bought or who bought them . You could probably find out in a day asking at the shops in siam paragon but hey lets drag it out another few months pretending we are waiting on the makers to reply to our requests !! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang on the money there Chrisinth. There are a couple of explanations to their lack of investigation. Maybe they thought Little Toad would come clean, and reveal all, or other news items would come along and allow this one to slide away with time as in the Red Bull case. The International press has this one in their teeth however. Not sure about the Thai news. Is it just TVForum members that are interested? If I ask the wife she just shrugs her shoulders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is the weird and ridiculous thing about 'Thai face': Thais are so desperate not to lose face that, when in a tight corner, they come out with the most idiotic claims and obvious nonsense, which no one can possibly believe - and so they actually lose face TOTALLY. But they just don't see it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The military are too dumb to see it and dumb enough to think that the Thai people are fooled........when they certainly aren't, but the Thai folk are used to being lied to on a regular basis, so that's what they expect: lies upon lies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anon4637435435 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Nacc dont know what they are doing. I see this idiot style feet dragging everywhere. I used to think people are playing dum here but ive come to realize its not like that at all. They really are that dumb. Arrest the pig please. I want to see this pig shackled asap. Im sure the watches arent expensive compared to what else this pigs got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CGW Posted March 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2018 I have a few decent watches (yes, on loan from a "friend!) as stated, anytime a quality watch is bought it is registered at the point of sale into the main data base, easy to trace who paid etc, seriously - why would they wont the facts to come out? everyone knows who they belong too! You have to wonder what else he has "borrowed" in his time "serving" the people? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil2407 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Why doesn’t the NACC just come out and say Prawit you’re full of shit but we can’t do that as we will get fired (moved to HQ for AA) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookieqw Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 10 hours ago, JonnyF said: Just as predicted. If he was given them, he broke the law by not declaring the gifts. If he bought them, he broke the law not declaring them as assets and explaining where the million dollars came from. This should be the catalyst for a full scale investigation of all his other assets, maids assets, gardeners assets etc. Instead they will just delay another 6 months until something more important comes along to take the attention away. The NACC is a joke. If they can't make this stick they should be disbanded and start again with some honest people, if anyone can find some. if after all this time all they can say is that there are 22 different watches - all i can say is these guys are at the top of their game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
