Thanathorn richest MP, while Bhumjaithai had 3 MPs in top 4 richest: NACC

By The Nation

 

 

The National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) on Friday (September 20) reported the personal finances of 80 members of the House of Representatives, 79 of whom were signed in after the March election, and one of whom recently resigned from the position.

 

This personal finances report is an addition to the NACC’s previous report of 415 MPs who had earlier submitted their asset lists in July.

 

Notable MPs whose assets and debts were revealed today include Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit, leader of Future Forward Party (FFP); Pannika Wanich, the FFP spokesperson, Piyabutr Saengkanokkul, the FFP secretary-general; Parina Kraikup, an MP of Phalang Pracharat Party from Ratchaburi province, and Mongkolkit Suksintharanon, a party list MP and leader of Thai Civilized Party.

 

The two reports combined found Thanathorn was the wealthiest MP, with Bt5.63 billion in assets and Bt683 million in debts (shared with his spouse.) The second richest was Bhumjaithai party-list MP Nathee Ratchakitprakarn, with a shared Bt4.67 billion in assets and Bt177 million in debts. Third on the wealth list is Deputy Prime Minister and Public Health Minister Anuthin Chanwirakun, another Bhumjaithai party-list MP, who with his spouse claimed Bt4.19 billion in assets and Bt50 million in debts.

 

Satun MP Phibul Ratchakitprakarn, also of Bhumjaithai Party, had Bt2.38 billion in assets shared with his spouse and Bt42 million worth of debt. Industry Minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit, coming in fifth place, was the richest MP in the government coalition-leading Phalang Pracharat Party, claiming with his spouse Bt2.19 billion in assets and Bt0.6 million in debts.

Interesting! In July 2019 Mrs. Nathee Ratchakitprakarn was give a one month suspended jail sentence and banned from politics for 5 years. She lost her status as an MP for making false declarations in 2011 regarding her assets. She was replaced by Dr. Settapong Malisuwan. So why does this buffalo get a mention? 

Her husband is the idiot presently running the Tourism Ministry and making a complete mess of it.

Buried in a Swiss vault and the Mayfair property market most likely ????

FFP leader might be the richest but he's connected to people more than all the others combined. FFP fella walked into my local bar in CM recently with his pal, drank whiskey and spoke with everyone. Good guy.

The paper that cannot be named listed Prawit's assets and showed his bank balance had increased FIVE million for each of the previous SIX years on an annual stipend of under ONE million.  This was several years back.

watch collections not included.

It's a question I have been asking myself for a long time now, how is it possible for individuals who have never done anything in their lives to swim in a sea of money while those who have worked hard for a lifetime have the minimum necessary to survive, others even than this!

A person with this amount of money cannot be a good person.

When I was young doing my apprenticeship a very smart older colleague told me:
idiots work and earn money... smart people never work but make money!
if all else fails

Family ties !

And can they and all the other cronies prove that the wealth the've accumulated is legally obtained  ? 

And what number did the heroin smuggling Deputy Agricultural Minister come in?

Richest? true

Connected better? true

 

But just because he went into a bar, drank and spoke to a few people is not fact of anything. He is just another super rich guy trying to get into Thai politics for some reason. Maybe (sincere question) 5.6 billion is not enough for him?

Well perhaps you could try using Google to see where Thanathorn gets his money from. Possibly, you might also try reading post #3 on this thread.

I'm just about as sceptical as can be, but so far he seems legit. His background sort of suggests he might be in it for the right reason, sorting the <deleted> out.

The Bangkok Post also reported that.  What is the "paper that cannot be named"?

They have to, that's the whole idea of asset declarations when they leave office, suspect amounts are investigated!  Declarations of assets when they take up their positions aren't necessarily subject to investigation as signs of corruption are looked for during their tenure.

He may be a rich dude trying to get into politics and he is obeying all election laws to subject himself and win the approval of the electorate. Thats different from this current one that seize political power by coup and twisting the law to remain in power to become a rich dude.
