These arrests were initiated by the Anti-Corruption Division (ACD) who acted on a complaint from a local firm alleging that the officials demanded a bribe of 2.3 million baht for a land excavation and landfill permit. The TAO officials agreed to the amount of 2.3 million baht, as per the firm’s request. The firm later provided evidence to the ACD police, including a video clip showcasing the TAO officials’ monetary demands. Once the ACD police completed their investigation, they sought arrest warrants from the Criminal Court for Corruption and Misconduct Cases, Region 1. The arrest of the TAO chairman and his secretary took place at their office around 11am on November 8, reported Bangkok Post. by Puntid Tantivangphaisal Photo courtesy of San Diego Solid Waste Local Enforcement Agency Full story: The Thaiger 2023-11-10 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

trainman34014 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Every 'Official' in Thailand thinks they are 'Prominent' and therefore have license to rip off whoever they want. Nothing new here; happens every day when such people are 'Legends in their own minds' and nobody ever challenges it for the most part. Indeed; most Thai's seem to applaud such behavior and would like to be 'Prominent' themselves ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
