Popular Post snoop1130 Posted August 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2021 This handout from the Royal Thai Government taken and released on September 1, 2020 shows Thailand’s Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha speaking at a briefing on the Red Bull heir’s hit-and-run case at the Government House in Bangkok. Seri Ruam Thai party leader Pol Gen Seripisut Temiyavet has accused Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha of being the biggest borrower and spender of all Thailand’s prime ministers and of being incompetent and corrupt. During the censure debate today (Tuesday), the former police chief said that, throughout the past seven years of his premiership, the prime minister has amassed borrowings totaling about 5.3 trillion baht, but a huge portion of that amount has been used to appease the military, to prop up his regime, by funding their arms procurement program. He said that, while the Defence Ministry has been allotted a substantial budget without any tangible achievements, the Ministry of Public Health, which is tasked with looking after the safety of the people in the wake of the pandemic, has been allocated less money.

The top 2, Prayut and Prawit have been exempted for the annual disclosures. Ever since the friends watches debacle the bank accounts have swelled. Prayut last was known to have over 2 billion in assets and funds, when just 7 years before when he started as the head of the Junta he only had 6 Million, of course all records of such have disappeared from the web where that info had been found. 8 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
