Popular Post webfact Posted April 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 14, 2021 By Thai PBS World’s General Desk The release of Transport Minister Saksayam Chidchob’s timeline has failed to dampen public curiosity about his movements before he tested positive for COVID-19. Even after he launched legal action against two social-media users for suggesting he may have caught the virus at a nightspot in Bangkok’s upscale Thong Lor area, rumours about his nightlife habits are still raging. Thai PBS World takes a closer look at the details in a bid to shed light on this controversial case. Saksayam, 58, is the highest-ranking official to have contracted COVID-19 in Thailand. Latest reports suggest he is still receiving treatment at Buri Ram Hospital in Buri Ram province, the political stronghold of the Chidchob clan. His late father, Chai Chidchob, was first elected as a Buri Ram MP in 1969 and held onto the seat for decades, also serving as House speaker for three years. Saksayam’s elder brother, veteran former politician Newin, also remains hugely influential in the Northeast province, where he has been dubbed the “Baron of Buri Ram”.

Popular Post mtls2005 Posted April 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 14, 2021 There is nothing too large which cannot be swept under the rug. Just need a bigger broom and a bigger rug. I mean if you can have a convicted drug dealer in your cabinet, then having a partier is obviously not going bring down this government. A moderate wind will blow the stench of this minor event away in no time. 6 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first came to Bangkok some 30 odd years ago I assumed the stench was from the klongs, perhaps I was mistaken. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

internationalism Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 that's the second day the government media are publishing against him. Somebody doesn't like him and he will be chopped from the government. probably on health grounds - post-covid complications. once dust settles he will spring back to the PM office as and adviser and later to the ministry of interior for an independent office, Big Joke style. he did lie not only his whereabouts, but also about his vax - he got only 1 jab, suppose to get a booster on the day he became sick. I do hope he french kissed many of his fellow party members at the anniversary party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rookiescot Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 In the wake of the outbreak at Thong Lor pubs, Thonglor Police Station superintendent Pol Colonel Duangchote Suwancharas was transferred to an inactive post. Duangchote is married to the daughter of former national police chief Pol General Patcharawat Wongsuwon. A court also sentenced the managers of Krystal Club and the Emerald Thonglor to two months in jail for violating disease-control regulations. At last! Someone has been held accountable for high ranking politicians swapping spit with the pretties. If this is not stamped out then who knows where it will end. It could be the thin edge of prostitution creeping into Thai society. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
