The Chinese embassy implores against defaming Chinese firms following the collapse of an unfinished State Audit building during last week’s earthquake in Bangkok.

 

The contractor, ITD-CREC, is a joint venture between Italian-Thai Development Plc and China’s Railway Number 10 Engineering Group, with the latter holding a 49% stake. The embassy highlights the substantial benefits of Sino-Thai infrastructure collaboration.

 

The calamity spurred criticism of Chinese companies involved, especially after the incident claimed lives. The incident prompted a swift investigation by the Thai government to uncover the causes.

 

 

 

The embassy assured the venture adhered to strict legal and engineering standards and is cooperating fully to ensure the investigation’s fairness and accuracy.

 

Chinese companies have significantly bolstered Thailand's economy by generating employment and investing heavily in local industries.

 

While advocating for legal accountability in corporate practices, the embassy opposes the unjust vilification of Chinese firms. The Chinese embassy commits to fostering beneficial relations and cooperation to advance prosperity for Thailand and China.

'investing heavily in local industries' by fraudulent transactions, avoiding taxes, illegal employees and lots of brown envelopes ad infinitum.

 

The Revenue Department has filed a criminal complaint against Xin Ke Yuan Steel Co, which supplied steel for the construction of the State Audit Office (SAO) building before its collapse, for fabricating more than 7,000 invoices worth over 200 million baht.
