Popular Post webfact Posted July 9 Popular Post Share Posted July 9 The government has plans B and C prepared, in case it cannot borrow 172.3 billion baht needed to fund the digital wallet scheme from the Bank of Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives (BACC), Deputy Finance Minister Paopoom Rojanasakul told the media today. He admitted that the Finance Ministry has not yet sought a ruling from the Council of State as to whether the granting the loan by the BAAC goes against the objectives of the bank, because the ministry is yet to compile all the relevant details about the scheme for sending to the Council of State. He said that the controversial scheme is, however, proceeding in accordance with the timeline, adding that the digital wallet subcommittee will meet this Wednesday to sum up all the relevant conditions.

Popular Post ikke1959 Posted July 9 Popular Post Share Posted July 9 Borrow the money means paying interest and pay back and that would harm the economy much more than not giving the 10k.. Besides the Government always has money enough... print a lot money it will raise the inflation but who cares, as long as the 10k goes on 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then roll over to Plan AA, AB etc. that will allow 626 plans in total before needing AAA etc. Even the Thai government shouldn't need 15,600 plans, should they??

Enzian Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 My tgf owes the BAAC a tidy sum for money she borrowed from it to buy a parcel of land back at a time when she was flush. Maybe the Bank could consider forgiving the debts of her and people like her before handing all this money over to a political party to buy votes (which doesn't make sense because the results of any election are decided by the power elite after the fact and not by vote numbers anyway). Or maybe the loan to PT will crash the Bank and all those debts will be washed away in the liquidation; I can dream at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
