Seven opposition parties are to demand that the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) investigate Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha for allegedly breaching the law on three issues, namely:

 

1 - The Prime Minister failed to state the sources of the Government’s revenue in the Government’s policy statement presented to parliament last year.

 

2 - The Prime Minister failed to recite the oath fully during the official swearing-in ceremony, an issue which remains unresolved since Constitutional Court has not accepted the matter for consideration.

 

3 - The process for the selection of senators was illegal due to the presence of members of the post-coup junta on the selection committee.

 

Acting chief opposition whip and Prachachart party secretary-general Pol Col Thavee Sodsong said that the Opposition’s move against the Prime Minister is unrelated to the planned censure debate, during which some seven cabinet ministers, as well as the Prime Minister, will be challenged.

Unfortunately, the N.A.C.C. never seem to investigate certain of their own members, or people above them, with more authority. This request, or demand, would seem to be a case of:

 

Never going to happen, Prayuth won't allow it.

The Thai people keep backing  

 

well I was going to go off on a rant but what's the point

 

we all know what it is

 

There are a huge number of people enriching themselves - been going on for decades  and will never change ………………………..unless - I'll keep that to myself

I  know  where  Id  like the probe  stuck

I stopped reading at NACC... 

forget the nacc, people need to standup and take him out. Idiot was just on the news saying hes tough and can deal with pm2.5 and he doesnt want to use laws to fix the problem whichbinnitself is a form of corruption as he is abusing his power. What planet are we living on?

Call me a pessimists, but even if wrong doing is found cha cha will remain like a bad rash.

After months of shoveling manure, the outcome will be that the (NACC) found nothing of substance to charge their beloved Prime Minister, as they also found nothing of substance when they investigated fatso and his friends 28 watches. Welcome to Thailand, same, same, different day ????

I am pretty sure we all know who gave them the all clear to point 1, 2 and 3. 

 

Nothing doing here. 

The opposition asking the NACC to investigate one of Thailand' wealthiest people.....do they even know who he is?

I buy lots of stuff from Thais over facebook and hence friended them. In the past month there has been an explosion of laughable comments about this guy from them. Not one says anything positive - and these guys and gals and not lo-so farmers, but educated Bankgkok workers. I've still yet to meet anyone that 'actually' voted for him

NACC answers Opposition Parties: "Ehm..., nope."

Please use discretion in your references to the government. Phrases which can be considered as anti-coup will be removed. Referring to Thailand or the government as a dictatorship, military dictatorship or other such terms will be removed.

Sodsong sounds about right but sodall will come of it????

The PM owns the NACC and controls the constitutional court so don't expect anything much to happen.

Every single former-junta member and all the appointees to the senate and government by the junta should be investigated for unusual wealth themselves and their families and connections too.

looks/sounds familiar with POTUS actions.... they are above the law

4 - They should ask him to resign as he breached the electoral law. He was not democratically elected by the people

And so should all opposition party members; former MP's; former PM's and Ministers, and their families, connections and staff including gardeners, drivers and maids.

 

But it won't happen. Just has it won't happen in the US, UK, France, Germany or any other First World Western democracy either.

In view of the image that has been emerging since the election I wouldn't admit to having voted for anyone in authority now either. And thinking that a lapdog will bite it's master's hand is not very realistic. Unlikely any "probes' are going to take place.

Considering the National anti corruption committee have just appointed 'corrupt Pareena' as part of their ranks doesn't bode well for this going much further......Love it, a corrupt government official elected to join the anti corruption committee.......you couldn't write it any better....poor Thailand.

I dont think that Prayuth realizes how un popular he is these days with the people he surrounds himself with telling him how great he is but out where the real people live I don't think they rate him anymore and that rate may turn to loath over time and he will find himself out of power come the next election. I also think that the people have had enough of the coups and this last one may well be the last one. The people will decide who governs them and if they don't like the current ones then they will change them for someone who may be better, the last coup may well have been the move that makes a Thai democracy the way forward over time, it wont be like we know but it will be their way and we have to let them get on with it and that includes the military as well, they have to be shown and told that the purpose of the military is to support the Government not be the Government.

But the "noise" is worthwhile anyway for when the doodoo starts to hit the fan. The more who realize what is really going on, the better.

This should be interesting. Now some screws are coming loose, but there is no way they are going to release control for many reasons that can't be publicly said.
