And these guys call themselves lawmakers??? "OK then! Prawit is confessing that he conspired with a friend to help him evade taxes". Jesus, how did reach that banal conclusion?

Mattd Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 His claim that another person, who he has now named, owned the watches can be verified for some of the watches, when you purchase an expensive watch then the dealer will register you as owning that watch, assuming it was purchased new. If any of the watches have ever been serviced, again the details are registered and could be easily checked. Personally I don't believe one word of what he has said is true regarding some dead guy owned them and then loaned them to Prawit. Watch collectors are normally very possessive of their watches, especially one that collected up to 300 valuable and rare watches. I own 4 reasonably high end watches and there is no way in hell that I would let anybody borrow them, not a chance. Just putting a scratch on the Richard Mille for example would cost a lot of money to put right. Plus, the deceased must have made a will, which would have included the watch collection in its entirety and the executors of that will have a duty to ensure that all of the assets in the will are accounted for, probate would not clear until such time, I can't see the relatives forgetting about the 'borrowed' watches worth several millions of Baht, not to mention the revenue department, who would be owed additional inheritance tax on this part of the estate, considering the estate would be well over the 100m Baht threshold. The believers say it is over, move on and let him do his job, the question is though, how can he be trusted to do his job? Most educated Thai's I know don't believe him about this, nor do they believe in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i were him, i would let my man pick you up for some attitude adjustment...what you're doing is not allowed in thailand. Why is it not allowed to have an opinion? Are you telling me that the only thing I can think is what the junta tells me I can think? Don't you think that is quite odd for a government to be telling its citizens? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chama Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Oh boy, the Toads lips are moving. Bet his claims will break down under scrutiny. It is always easy to make claims when the others involved are no longer with the living. Wonder if there will be any work done to verify when the wristwatches were purchased. They all have serial numbers and often are registered for warranty purposes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he borrowed them, why didn't he state that months ago? I'm confused...are you against corruption or do you think only some people should be allowed to be corrupt? Perhaps stephen tracy isn't in Thailand. None of us likely have a dog in this fight, but all of us know that this story seems unlikely.
