The National Anti-Corruption Organization (NACC) found grounds for possible guilt against former Pattaya Mayor Itthiphol Khunpluem in the controversial Waterfront Suites & Residences condominium scandal.

 

Itthiphol, now serving as a caretaker Minister of Culture, is accused by the NACC for allegedly issuing an improper construction permit to Bali Hai Co., Ltd. for the construction of a 57-storey condominium complex Waterfront Suites & Residences back in 2008, when he still served as a Pattaya mayor.

 

The NACC on Tuesday, July 25th, revealed to the press that they have found enough evidence to believe that Itthiphol allegedly committed offenses under Section 157 of the Criminal Code. As a result, they will forward the case to the Criminal Court for Corruption and Misconduct Region 2 for further prosecution. The former mayor and others will have the chance to defend themselves and give their side of the story in court, added the NACC.

2008-2023 and not over yet...

Minister of Culture in a culture of corruption. Oh, the irony.????

    Somebody, anybody, make a decision already to either finish it in some form or tear it down.  It sits abandoned and unfinished on one of the most prominent sites in Pattaya, not tucked away out of sight on some obscure side street.

Ludicrous.

I think the family already had a bad reputation before this. Like father like son etc.

For context, and for those that don't know, he is the son of Kamnan Po, the famous 'Godfather of Chonburi'.
