Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted September 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2020 Hopefully they can pay the fine allocated to each, if they can not then I think at reducing it by 300 baht a day it can be erased by a stay of equal time in the Remand Prison until its worked off, and of course all of there properties seized and sold off to pay back the ill-gotten gains, much like they have done to other prior government officials like Yingluck and her fellow ministers. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Misterwhisper Posted September 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2020 Meanwhile, the (convicted and sentenced in-absentia) mastermind of the entire scheme, former deputy interior minister Vatana Asavahame, continues to comfortably sit out his remaining days just across the Thai-Cambodian border in Poipet, where he is a majority shareholder in a luxurious casino. Not that he seems too happy, though. Now in his late 70s and with a 20-year jail sentence (or was it 25?) waiting for him, he's terribly suffering from home sickness. As they all do once they've fled abroad. I've recently come across booklets laid out in various retail shops and supermarkets across Bangkok, in which Vatana directly addresses Prime Minister Prayuth, pleading with him to "let an old man finally come home". He also insists in long-winded and whiny words spreading across 50 pages or so how completely, totally, wholesomely innocent he is of any wrongdoing -- and that it was all "a terrible misunderstanding" and how his prison sentence was a vicious miscarriage of justice and should be annulled. I picked up a copy of this vile pamphlet, adding it to my archive as a historical document to illustrate how absolutely incapable this gentlemen and other "leaders" of his ilk are of feeling any guilt or remorse for their corrupt actions. 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Finally a ruling that attacks corruption. But like so many said getting the money is a whole other thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
