Where did all his Million Baht plus houses and cars come from????????? Did he save up?????

Big Joke's wife is  the daughter of the late Bancha Panitchapong, Hat Yai businessman (real estate and transport), her inheritance is over Baht 1 billion - he doesn't need to work.

 

He started his signature campaign last week in Songkhla.

the act alone of what he is doing is in itself a political agenda to retaliate against the NACC for investigating him. So how can he say that is not his purpose? 

Also, was he not part of the NACC before? He is the pot calling the kettle black now? Why isn't he behind bars? Any normal person would have been arrested with the evidence they have and had to bail out of jail to still be walking around as a free man. 

What evidence might that be, care to expand on your findings?

Do some research and it might just become clear, it's not all that difficult and then you won't have to ask such questions.

There are absolutely no inherent obstacles standing in the way of bribing immigration or any other official in Thailand, This jokers "anti corruption" measures were limited to having immigration offices remove their tip boxes from the  prominent counter top positions they used to occupy.  Most tip boxes were simply moved under the counter temporarily,

I have no grudge against him personally, but for any on here  to actually  support him or claim he is some sort of angel displays a child like naivety and a laughter emoji is unfortunately the only appropriate response available at present,  Do these people also believe that politicians exist for the benefit of society ?  "to make a difference" ? judging my some of the gushing comments about "Pita" it would appear so.  I didn't realise such gullible souls still existed these days,  bless them.   

So you say.

As usual, BP, you lay down the law about "anyone on here". You seem to have set yourself up as judge and jury. I'm not a child and I'm not naive. I freely admit to liking this guy. I object to your labelling me as a result. And as for being "gullible" for supporting Pita? Patronising rubbish. Do you have any better candidates than Hakparn and Pita for my support?

World wide, very very few people become wealthy by being whiter than white, In Thailand nobody gets there without being as bent as a boomerang.Only an innocent child with severe learning difficulties would think otherwise.  How easily some people are sucked in by a carefully choreographed media  PR campaign  is actually quite concerning.  Not unlike white lab rats that have had there natural instincts bred out of them and display no fear of predators

As I said an automatic assumption that because someone is wealthy they are corrupt. The wealth is inherited therefore he and his wife have absolutely no history of corruption. I agree their parents may have obtained the wealth by dubious methods but you cannot apply that to the children. Inheritance of wealth is perfectly legal.

What research did you do? Save me a few hours.

 

From The Nation:

 

"The Thai police force has seen officers famous for their enormous wealth, and though Surachate personally may not make it to the list, the man nicknamed "Big Joke" must be included because of the near-billionaire status of his wife."

 

An idiotic comment for a start. His wife's rich so he's a criminal? Nothing in any article about him concerning unusual wealth. If I were him, I'd sue you lot. You know who you are. Stupid gossips. Tittle tattle from the chattering classes.

First up, I wasn't answering you, I was answering another party who wanted to know where his wealth came from - the simple fact is,  his wife is wealthy plus he is being investigated at the moment - both you well know.

Any sources for your claim of the evidence they have? Maybe he knows a thing or two about the NACC we don't.

He will know a lot about a lot of things, to much for some to sleep comfortable

Wrong. He is an independently wealthy straight shooter. 

[Guderian]

He should get together with Pita and Move Forward, they've got similar complaints about the rotten system.

[spidermike007]

Nobody could ever convince me that a former head of immigration and recent deputy head of the RTP is and was straight. It is a near impossibility. He simply had a great PR machine, and like Trump he was a genius at creating a fiction, and misleading the people. Big Joke. The great imposter.

[TroubleandGrumpy]

Seems to me that Big Joke has been attacked a lot in the past (even shot at) and that 'they' are desperate to keep him from getting the top job and cleaning 'them' all out.  If he was as corrupt as they are saying, then why are they trying to stop him getting the top job? Surely if he was as corrupt as the others, they would just let him have his turn at the big cheese, and wait for their own turn.  No - me thinks he is clean(er) and that he will take them all down if he is in the top job, and that is why they are desperate to stop him being promoted.  It is not only the corrupt Junta in this country that knows how to manipulate the system in order to remove their opponents.

TDS much? That bloke is living free of charge in your head mate - you should let it go because he will be POTUS again. After all it is not as if you live in the USA.

Seems the guy can do no right here on this forum. The cynics believe he's just "in it for the money", so to speak. Well, will he make anything out of this? Be cynical about your own police forces. They're just as bad. It's

 

I don't really think he's in it for the money, I do think he's just another hi-so with a huge look at me syndrome! 

 

Another lying, hypocritical, corrupt pos who cares nothing whatsoever for the Thai people 

 

He's the same xenophobic creature that was actively paying off the press to write positive stuff about him whilst pretending to be a good guy 

 

He's clearly an entitled egomaniac produced by the Thai educational system and face first society 

 

In summary I reckon he's just another hi-so Thai that believes he's special. He has risen to the top of the RTP so he's must know it's a corrupt cesspit top to bottom yet chooses to ignore it

 

Absolute scum bag just like the rest of Thailand's higher echelons and some of you on here really need to give your heads a good wobble!

 

Ps. The Thai buffoons in brown are world renowned as corrupt, lazy, neer do well's so the whataboutery is blatant deflection

So basically you "like" him based purely on his media image,  which he doubtless has professional PR people taking care of.  That sounds more than a bit weird to me.  But then again I was never taken in by "celebrity culture"    The fact  is any support you may wish to give is limited to posting on here really,  so as such it doesn't really matter who you side with ,  why even bother?

Your advice to do some research and find enlightenment is typical troll material. You're wrong. No amount of research will come up as evidence for your false assertions. Which makes you a disinformant. He is not being investigated for unusual wealth, but for what look to me like trumped up allegations of links to gambling. Take your own advice and do some research.

Never change your tune eh, spider, despite coming up with nothing except he's a cop therefore he's bent. Great case you've got there. I'm sure any judge would convict on the basis of that nonsense. What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof. Case dismissed!

Quite the opposite. RTP leadership. Definitely highly guilty and totally suspect, until proven innocent. It is the very nature of the institution and humanity. Most people simply do not say no to billions of baht.

Why bother what? Replying to you? Because you spout a lot of patronising rubbish about how anyone who doesn't see it your way is a naive child incapable of rational thought. And about the subject in question. I'm aware my "support" is pretty meaningless to him, but then why do people "support" Pita, the decriminalisation of weed, the imprisoned students etc etc. Or rail against Putin, or Trump, or Biden?

 

If you think taking on the NACC is just a publicity stunt, well, it could land him in big trouble if his allegations are unfounded. So it's not a celebrity thing. Sure, maybe he figures the best form of defense is attack. Well, let's hope he's right.

Gonna have to cut you loose there, spider. You have yet to produce a shred of evidence he's banked billions of THB. And you're not alone. Nobody has! Or that he's guilty of any other misdemeanour. No news on the gambling front?
