webfact Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Picture: Sanook Following former Prime Minister and fugitive Thaksin Shinawatra's claims that pork producers are hoarding meat to benefit from its rising price authorities in Songkhla checked on a large refrigeration storage facility yesterday. Led by governor Jessada Jitrat, senior police and vets they checked on more than 200,000 kilos of meat in the freezing conditions at the unit in Ban Na sub-district of the southern Thai province, reported Sanook. The unit rents out space to clients who need storage facilities. The pork in question belongs to Betagro in Phatthalung. Jessada said that investigations are continuing and no charges have yet been made. They would be contacting Betagro, one of Thailand's biggest meat poultry and pork producers. At this stage there is no suggestion that the meat was being hoarded. Thaksin claimed earlier in a briefing from abroad that big producers were hoarding pork as the price of the meat sky-rockets.
