Yes, everything is a mystery. Good explaination.

So, now we take for granted that the people caclulating on this project, mede a huge miscalculation of a minor amount of 2bn baht.

There is absolutely nobody that accidentally have been pocketing a large amount of money on the way.
 

Let´s say there is two options. Fire the people in charge of the cost for the project or find the perp.

Same same
