Popular Post newnative Posted October 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2022 Ridiculous sentence. Nobody died. Kids got a skimpy school meal. Should he be punished? Certainly, and with some jail time. But, 192 years for skimming some money? Makes no sense to me when other far more serious crimes are given much lighter sentences. 25 people dead in that club fire and the owners walking around free. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His fellow teachers all told him now he was eligible for a cut of the school finances. He quit in disgust. He had no trouble in finding another position in a reputable school. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamnutsak Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Of course a police general gets reassigned for his alleged involvement in drug cartels. And Chop Doc Wisut gets released after just under 11 years, and could well be back to practicing medicine for all we know. The Ministry of Education is a cesspool of corruption. For the amount of money allocated to the MoE, per student, they should be churning out another Einstein every year or so. I get making an example of one administrator - it makes it look like something is being done, but this problem is a lot bigger, and tossing out an outrageous sentence is just a mockery of the already flawed Thai "judicial" system. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool Lou Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 21 minutes ago, Purdey said: . On a prison visit a few years ago I was allowed to chat with prisoners unsupervised. An old lady informed that while the government paid for meat in their food they were given only rice and vegetables. The "old lady" was lying, anyone who's actually been in a Thai prison will refute that. How did you get to visit a group of prisoners, or a lone female prisoner, unsupervised, when all prison visiting in Thailand is done through a screen via a phone handset, unless you're the prisoner's lawyer?

Sounds like he will literally be getting a taste of his own medicine. He could always just go to the prison shop and buy the food he wants, or get a visitor to buy it from the visitors shop or order something specific from an available list the night before, all above board options in Thai prisons. Coffee and doughnuts for breakfast, fast food sent in, fresh fruit given out during the day, all daily occurrences. Sorry to burst the bubble.

Let's hope the kids had money to buy all the junk sold around school, and I have a feeling this wasn't the only thing this guy did and the length of bad deeds is long. 50 years seems harsh, but not when we are talking about children (77 counts, maybe 77 kids? probably hundreds) Why bother responding? Surely you have something better to do ... although you've done this over 2,000 times. "Why bother responding? Surely you have something better to do..." How about because it's a forum with one sole purpose...to get members to respond to articles? But, ironically, to quote your own words, "surely you have something better to do"?

Yes, fraud, with the school meal program. Not murder. They chose to count it as 77 cases. It could just as easily have been seen as 1 case of fraud in the misuse of school funds in regard to the meal program. As I said, he should receive jail time for his fraud but 192 years is far too harsh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Due to his confession, however, the sentence was commuted to 192 years and six months. Nonetheless, according to the Criminal Code, the maximum imprisonment permissible by law is 50 years." So why hand down a totally unattainable sentence - it might as well be 10,000 years! (P.S. I like the "and 6 months" bit - and yes, I know it's a matter of mathematics!)

She is in charge of managing the budget for the school, so she has first-hand knowledge of the problems. A major Thai bank gives the school 400K per year to supplement the school lunch program, and the director steals half of it. This is only one of many ways that these crooked directors game the system. Well if she knows this, and continues to say nothing then she is compliant also. anonymously report it !

Sydebolle Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Well, on that note I just hope that the defrocked school director has a very, very long life then, otherwise he will not be able to enjoy the governmentally paid vacation. Correct is to reprimand the slime but compared to other crooks roaming the land I wonder where and when common sense flew out of a very big, permanently open window .......... just saying!
