Popular Post snoop1130 Posted June 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2023 The National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) investigation is preparing to take legal action against Suwichak Nakwatcharachai, the former secretary-general of the House of Representatives, over allegations of his involvement in the irregular procurement of overpriced clocks worth 15.4 million baht for the parliament back in 2013. An inside source at the NACC revealed that a recent board meeting provided evidence supporting the accusations against Suwichak. He was reportedly part of a group of parliamentary officials that helped Equipment Co secure the winning bid by manipulating the specifications of the Bodet clock, even though the firm failed to register the clock properly. During the investigation, the NACC discovered that bid documents, such as a performance certification and a contract containing a price offer, had been falsified. Moreover, it was found that the company, rather than importing clocks from a distributor, sourced them from Precious Time Trading, another contender for the bid. Although Suwichak will not face disciplinary action since he has already been removed from his position in the House, the NACC plans to file a lawsuit against him with the Criminal Court for Corruption and Misconduct.

Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted June 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2023 This case is 10 years old. Why does it take so long for an investigation into malfeasance to be conducted.

It starts at the initial contract, long before building starts, then flows down to contractors, suppliers, transporters, sub contractors and anyone they can grift money out of!

Probably someone blew the whistle as the bribe they themselves requested did not arrive or the person protecting them retired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kingstonkid Posted June 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2023 THis and stories like it are why the powers that be are fighting so hard to stop the MFP. The military and the backers of the military have been profiting so much that they are afraid that the skeletons will start showing once a fresh non, committed to them set of eyes starts looking. I think that once MFP officially takes control you are going to see Chuvit have lots of friends and copy cats come out of the woodwork with stories 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you need do is look at the infrastructure, and you will see it is hanging by a thread. They modernised the roads for 30 kilometres near us, and they are flooding and cracking after two months. Every time it rains our power goes off. About 100 metres from my house the bridge collapsed 6 years ago, and there is still a temporary army bridge in its place. The list is endless, and all down to skimming and corruption. However, Thailand is nowhere near the top of the class when compared to other Countries, it is just more obvious here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bare concrete will weaken I'm the sun... Since the original... and only.. Paint has long vanished. What's left is mildewed concrete baking in the sun.
