In the clip, Seksakol also mentioned having spent 100 million baht in an election, including the 15 million baht in question. An election law caps campaign funds for each candidate at 1.5 million Baht.

A tad over budget?

Ring any bells?

Thank goodness he didn't own any "media shares".

 

 

His nickname is "Rambo Isaan". 

 

The stench of corruption is strong with this one, that's why prayut employs him as a henchman.

 

That so much effort goes into controlling the lottery trade here one assumes that that is corrupt from top to bottom and needs to be discarded.

Rambo could shack up with Pareena, a match for sure!

I'm just imagining the looks of their offspring, Pareena's sour face with a hairline that starts at the eyebrows.

Vice Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office, Seksakol Atthawong, officially announced his resignation from the post today (Monday), effective tomorrow, following the leak of an audio clip of him asking to borrow 15 million Baht

 

Clearly unfit for a position in the PM's office. A qualified, capable Vice Minister wouldn’t ask to borrow 15 million Baht…...he would whisper forbidden names and demand a 100 million Baht donation.

Fiddling lottery ticket quotas a more serious offense than drug smuggling, rape and murder......what an odd place Thailand is.

Probably more money to be made from it, more sustainable, less physical risk.

This is the same guy leading the charge to rid Thailand of Amnesty International. 

 

Ultra right wing con man without a clue.

 

"Ultra-royalist figures in Thailand claim that they have secured more than a million signatures expressing support for a plan to expel the international human rights organization Amnesty International from the country."

It seems to me that the rats are deserting the leaking political ship of the PPRP, the government and even the Democrats.

 

The rats are showing more sense than the humans at this point in time.

Not sure he's really ultra-royalist. More like ultra-opportunist or ultra-gravy train follower.

Yhe People’s Lawyers Foundation. Have been quite active against people linked to the government. We can expect them to be in trouble soon.

From Thaksin’s crooner to Prayut’s promoter – the pinball political career of Seksakol Atthawong

 

Once a red-shirt leader dubbed “Isan Rambo”, Seksakol Atthawong has made yet another political pivot, leaving the ruling Palang Pracharath to join a new party aiming to secure Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha’s return to power after the next general election.

 

Currently a vice-minister to the Prime Minister’s Office, Seksakol disclosed on Monday (Jan 7) that his new party —Ruamthai Sarngchart — would support Gen Prayut in his bid for another term regardless of whether Palang Pracharath or another party nominates him as its PM candidate.

 

Seksakol said the party’s name, which means Uniting Thais to Build the Nation, was inspired by a phrase used often by Prayut.

If he was a landmass he could be an "Ultra" hub of Thailand.
