Abhisit urges courage to rule fishy rice deal case



BANGKOK: -- Democrat party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva today urged the National Anti Corruption Committee (NACC) to rule the fishy rice deal with courage and speed to bring all the corrupted politicians and officials to trials.

The opposition leader’s comment came as the NACC’s inquiry panel is scheduled to propose the full board of the NACC on its finding tomorrow

The panel has completed its investigation with report that it has substantial evidence and ground to propose the full NACC board to proceed with the prosecution of these wrongdoers.

Among the wrongdoers with clear evidence of corruption is the former commerce minister Boonsong Teriyapiromใ

Caketaker Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra was also among the politicians who was named by the Democrat party to be responsible for the rice deal scandal in a petition to the NACC for probe.

Abhisit said today that the NACC must show its courage to identify their guilt and with speed and bring them to trial.

He said that the NACC had earlier warned the Yingluck government of risking irregularities and corruption to implement the rice-pledging scheme but it did not heed the warning.

Therefore it was the time for the NACC to prove itself to its warning and identify their guilt with courage and speed, he added.

At tomorrow’s meeting of the full NACC board, if it approved the finding of its inquiry team for action, politicians who were charged must stop all official work immediately.

Speedy trial in Thailand?? Very interesting concept, indeed. How long has it been since the airport was closed? Interesting a person indicted for murder is still on the job.

Let's hope

[jaidam]

You have to admire Abhisit, only hours after the red ruffians bombed his house in an obvious assassination attempt he is there in the spotlight highlighting the Thaksin governments in-your-face corruption. Showing more determination and a keener sense of smell for corruption than a truffle dog in an autumn woodland. The clan can not recover from their dastardly deeds being under the spotlight for the world to see and be repulsed by.

Khun Abhsist, we salute you!

Wrong "pookiki".

The airport fiasco was carried out by the Democrats and they benefit impunity.

When any Democrat (annex Yellow) does something wrong, the Judiciary system is put in reverse gear forever and ever.

Sorry, forgot about the 'reverse' gear in the judiciary.

Please, open your eyes and ears.

Try to understand the damage they have done to this beautiful country.

Do you really want this to carry on?

Because, if elected, nothing will change, except the chance that her criminal brother will come back to do more damage.

I support the 'rule of law' in Thailand. It is ludicrous and hypocritical for Abhisit to talk about the concept of a 'speedy trial'. IMHO all current and former MPs and PMs still living and under charges should be brought to trail as soon as possible - especially when such charges include murder. If Thailand wants real reform, then reform the judiciary and treat everyone 'equal under the law'. Reform corruption? It all starts with equal enforcement of the law.

Oh dear "Costas",

I, as one of the "Foreigners (with a capital "F") in this beautiful country" forgot completely that Foreigners can vote too in Thailand.

I ask you a thousand fold sorry and may the wrath of the lord Bouddha strike me a hundredfold for forgetting that Foreigners can vote too in Thailand.

Dear Costas, I ask you a hundredfold forgiveness for "supporting" the Yingluck government and I promise to you that I will vote the next elections for the Democrats.

Bwaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

[Costas2008]

To pookiki: I support the 'rule of law' in Thailand

I do the same, but when did Yingluck supported the law for 2.5 years being in charge of the country?

Not many times, I can assure you.

Only when it benefits their own interests and pockets.

Do you really want this to carry on?

Tell that to the Thais who have voting rights , and let them choose who to elect and put your party to the test.

Agreed.

The sooner Abhsit and Surhep are allowed their chance to clear their names of the stupid charges the better.

It will give them the chance to bring out all the evidence their lawyers will have accumulated, the hate speeches from the red stage urging violence, the phone'ins, the videos and photos of the men in black and the money trail back to the instigator and funder of the riots.

PT attempted to deny them that chance by including them in the amnesty bill but it did not work so the truth will come out and it will be the final death nell for Thaksin.

OH and no doubt you would also like to see those charged with terrorism for their part in the riots of 2010 before the courts pronto.

Of all the drawn out cases still in the courts, you chose the airport closure to illustrate the slowness of Thai justice, Agenda much?

Not speedy trial, but speed to bring to trial. The meaning is different.

What happened to the DEM's rice scheme case and the Thai Kem Kaeng irregularities investigation? Fast forward every investigation related to PTP? Criminal cases of PAD postponing endlessly?

Where in the OP from Costas did he/she mention anything about foreigners being able to vote?

In fact it's not really the point of his/her message.

Abihisit is right and why shouldn't it be that that way. Why should the NACC fear the government or particular personalities? As far as Abihsit goes... anyone can be accused of anything at any time and anywhere. You've already condemned him before he's ever had a day in court and that's not very democratic. For example: I could say that (whoever) is a "bed wetting dwarf pygmy with bad breath and acne" but it wouldn't at all be true at all unless I actually knew it for a fact. The problem is that the current government tends to say these things and lay out legal charges with no regret or fact. They are all counter charges designed to distract and distance the opposition and the public from what's actually going on.

Considering Suthep hates foreigners, it is a no brainer for foreigners to oppose him.

Now I really do know that you are stark, staring mad! A ping-pong ball (or a fire-cracker) on the roof of his house when he wasn't even home "an obvious assassination attempt"? As for the rest, it reminds me of the very best of the satire from the 60s and 70s.

Poor old Abhisit, floundering about like a fish out of water, leading a political party too scared to run in an election, watching his party's top dogs fighting each other in public and now reduced to playing second fiddle to a raving lunatic who thinks he's either Mussolini or the Messiah.

Salute him if you must, but do keep taking your medicine!

Did you get this information from your local Som Tam lady?

[bkkgooner]

Funny he wasn't saying much of this stuff when he was the leader of the opposition party, bloke is an opportunist who plays the political game very well for his family and people close to him. I can't believe I used to support this muppet as he has no interesting in moving Thailand forward as a nation.
