Mafia-scan: Nationwide probe into local chiefs’ ties progresses in colourful stages

A comprehensive nationwide examination into the possible mafia ties of local chiefs has reached a progression stage of 20-30%. Deputy Interior Minister, Chada Thaiset, disclosed that the gathered data will eventually be organised into zones marked by distinct colours.

 

The impetus for this initiative stemmed from a distressing incident wherein a highway patrol officer was shot during a dinner gathering at the home of Praween Chanklai, who also goes by the name Nok. Nok, a prominent figure in the local community and a construction industry magnate, hosted this event on September 6 in Nakhon Pathom province.

 

Chada, tasked by Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul to oversee the examination, announced yesterday that the committee, under Anutin’s leadership, is formulating a list of potentially powerful mafia-esque politicians. They aim to analyse the extent of influence these individuals have in their respective territories.


Currently, the list remains confidential due to legal constraints, specifically the Personal Data Protection Act. The collected names will guide the stratification of local political influences using a colour scheme, such as red and yellow. Chada revealed the system aims to ensure equitable treatment across all associated departments.

Then what?

 

This appears to be the equivalent of a traditional Khon dance, or a  hun lakhon lek puppet show.

Possibly decide which ones to 'partner' to gather funds?

This has never bothered various police and civil offices around the country who hand out photocopies made on the reverse of copies of other people's personal data including ID photos.????

Saves paper. Why doing you think they need all those photocopies?
