2long Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Will be interesting to see if the effort put into finding, catching and prosecuting this guy is equal to the efforts for doing the same to nailing a certain politician who recently 'borrowed' 150 rai of national park land! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardColeman Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Well, I vote the mayor becomes responsible for the debt and sells his house rather than use more public money ! To ensure that the municipality can continue to meet its financial obligations, the mayor says he has sought permission from the provincial governor to draw on a reserve fund. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that the governor will give the "financial transaction challenged" mayor the password for the reserve fund... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andycoops Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 So for their gross incompetence they want more money to cover the losses, in a normal country they would all be sacked and made to pay it back. Amazing Thailand. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Pull my left leg and it will ring "jingle bells"; the mayor "not familiar" and handing over passwords and the works? It's New Year in summer - it seems ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven100 Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 He was certainly keeping a close eye on the finances, he was making sure every transfer was the correct amount and that the transfer went through successfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
