ukrules Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 A quick audit of his tax records over the last 10 to 20 years should show if everything is all ok, it's not an unusually large amount of wealth. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all fairness he and or his wife could have inherited land and other wealth from parents or other relatives which would be included in their declared assets. Also his wife may have some well paid position in industry or government. The facts as laid out really are not much use at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money brokers raise the cash - at a significant cost! That's right. There are always rich businessmen around the assistant commissioner I know. They land the money for zero interest and get paid back in 'boom koon'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithkarmann Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 He is probably thinking he is worth a lot more after he heard David Cameron got paid over 300 million baht working 2 and a half years part time for an investment bank. Nothing will stick to David Cameron so why pick on this honest Police Chief. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropposurfer Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 5,000.000 mil AUD + as a police officer, national police boss or not, is rotten to the core.

Xonax Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) 104 Million Baht is definitely a nice amount to be able to save out of a 1.5 Million Baht annual salary. I wonder if we can rest assured, that all of it has been declared and taxed in his annual tax returns? Edited August 12, 2021 by Xonax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BestB Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 2 hours ago, Neeranam said: Yes, it was more than 100 million baht. So the salary is peanuts , a drop in the ocean to what he really gets “ unofficially” just what he charges for promotions and to get stationed at certain places made all the money back in the first year. What he declared is just a fraction of what he is really worth. If I had to guess I would say he is worth around half a billion and will be worth close to a billion by the time re retired or moved to another position 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted August 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2021 1 hour ago, aussienam said: 104 Million THB at today's spot rate is $3,152,470.00 USD, $4,282,519.00 AUD, £2,273,645 Pound Sterling, €2,686,167 Euros Not a bad accumulation for someone. The salary of the police Chief is obviously not able to accumulate that worth on its own in a normal human career span. I am not sure when he commenced that position, but assume it's not been decades long. Previous to that would have been lower ranked, lower salary. Then there is government income tax applied and cost of living. Both he and his wife seem to have quite expensive materialistic tastes as revealed in this report. But there are the wealthy show ponies who like to advertise how fantastic they are (something to do with vanity and narcissism?) A nice bank deposit for the missus and kids. With so much successful accumulation of wealth, one may ask why they would have such large sums of cash sitting in his wife's named account that is basically half their total worth? Other sources of claimed legitimate wealth perhaps are: inheritance, he's a very savvy and smart investor, owner of other successful businesses and/or companies, winner of significant Lottery prizes, winner of a significant Casino gamble prize abroad, gifts from generous friends and family, donations. I wonder how the audit will go ... We could say the same to many expats here too and how they came into possession of their wealth (Thailand the mecca for money laundering in the past. We can thank the legacy of banks like HSBC for that). Audit? You seriously think they will look into this? Prayuth is there to protect them, not investigate them. Prayuth and this administration are the do nothing people. Their sole purpose is to protect the elite, the super rich, corporations, the police, immigration, customs, and those currently in power. Nothing else matters to these dinosaurs. And Thailand will pay the price for this failed regime for years to come. Woe are the people of Thailand. They justly deserve all the criticism, humiliation and shame that can be heaped upon them. Out with the dinosaurs. In with the youth! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
