Popular Post worldview Posted June 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2021 I have lived in Thailand for twenty years, and I have seen very little, if any, attempt to seriously tackle corruption - I suspect that if I would go away for the next twenty years, that I would be reading the same headline upon my return?? ???? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No benefit whatsoever to Australian expats. We are still at the back of the line. And I am skeptical where that money will end up. Will it all be used as intended by Australian government? yet another Country helping Thailand with its Vaccine program. Why ? Thailand is the 21 st richest Country on the Planet. But they do seem to have some issues with running the Country correctly, so maybe thats the reason why. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Triangle Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 7 hours ago, webfact said: Last week, the President of National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) Police General Watcharapol Prasarnrajkit told the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC) that Thailand remains committed to working to prevent and combat corruption. Did he say that with a straight face or was he wearing on of these suits ???????? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newnative Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Key word: 'reiterates'. So, no success at all. Hint: You need to do more than 'reiterate'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The corruption here is worst at the top, then it slowly trickles down. First thing to do, is rid the country of those at the top, then hopefully the corruption will cease, or at least decrease.

Classic Ray Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Three point plan for starters: 1. Independently witnessed destruction of seized drugs to prevent return to the market. 2. Prohibition of owning/running businesses by police officers, armed forces, and government officials, and independent investigation of their assets. 3. Effective investigation and prosecution of air pollution offenders, especially agricultural conglomerates and large commercial vehicle operators. it’s alright, I know I’m dreaming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
