Popular Post webfact Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 NACC set to charge PM over rice scheme late Feb BANGKOk, 11 February (NNT) - The National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) is expected to press charges against Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra for her role in alleged irregularities in the rice-pledging scheme late this month.According to Witthaya Arkompitak, an NACC member, the agency has been gathering evidence in order to indict the premier and has summoned rice farmers who have lodged complaints against her to testify.The NACC earlier recommended to the Pheu Thai government that the programme be suspended due to its massive financial losses and large-scale irregularities.Mr Witthaya has also made known that the agency is speeding up its investigation into the impeachment case against 383 senators and MPs for their support of the Senate composition constitutional amendment. The case is set to be concluded early in March.-- NNT 2014-02-11 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bigbamboo Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 Due to the damage this disastrous scheme has caused to the country's reputation and credit worthiness there is no alternative but to pursue those responsible in the courts. As PM and Chairperson of the Rice Committee Khun Yingluck is doubly accountable even if she was merely a pawn in her brother's grand plan. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why ask Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Due to the damage this disastrous scheme has caused to the country's reputation and credit worthiness there is no alternative but to pursue those responsible in the courts. As PM and Chairperson of the Rice Committee Khun Yingluck is doubly accountable even if she was merely a pawn in her brother's grand plan. I bet she's quaking in her Burberries.

Popular Post patjem Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 'Judicial coup' is only a rhetoric of the red shirts, for actually being 'caught in the act and dealt with under the law'..... whilst both sides conveniently forget many home-truths 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post seajae Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) yes, how dare the courts abide by the laws of thew country and not what the ptp/red shirts tell them to. Thaksin should have been found guilty(as stated by the judge) when he was let off because he was the pm, this time they are not going to make the same mistake. The only ones bitching are the red supporters because it means their demise and that of the ptp, it is great that the courts are finally doing the correct thing, not doing as they are being threatened to do.

Popular Post tomross46 Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 She will not be able to answer the questions of NACC, because she will have urgent business overseas. Maybe to check the production of the tablet computers in China, or to negotiate a new rice deal somewhere in Africa or in the UAE. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post siampolee Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) It would seem as if the judicial axe is falling on many here in Thailand irrespective of who and what, long may it continue. However what will be interesting to see will be if those proposed prosecutions are selective or not based upon ones political allegiance or family and crony connections. Those in power would do well to remember that the Thai people have now realised that they can influence matters as the current movement has shown. let us hope that at last corruption is going to be tackled as well as other matters that of course have yet to be proved without a doubt as illegal etc. Justice has to be balanced and not influenced by political propaganda and self serving political families and their cronies.

Popular Post djjamie Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 If you are found guilty corruption you deserve what ever you get. If you were warned by the NACC, World Bank and IMF that the scheme needs to be rethinked due to corruption and you ignore their well intentioned advice and continue the scheme and are found guilty of corruption then you are just plain stupid and deserve what ever you get. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bkkjames Posted February 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2014 Total admission of the fact that the Coup is dead. Long live the weasle Judicial Coup.... 5 rice story of the day is it. Great the media really helping out with the Power grab. Won't get away with it though.... its 2 decades out of date doing this!! In most normal countries with a real judicial system, the members talking about the case in public like this would automatically have the case thrown out... Which is what needs to happen to this dumb case. So using your logic, having CAPO and other assorted agencies talking about charging the Protesters etc in the press on a daily basis is grounds for dismissal? Why not just give amnesty to everyone - oops you tried that and it didn't go so well. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is what needs to happen to this dumb case. There may be a few from within PTP that might attempt to continue to back this collossal scan and its incredible scale of loss and coruption. Don't blame the press - blame the PTP for failing to act when the Dems brought all these issues to the house a long time ago. Blame Tarit for ignoring it. Blame Yingluck for never attending a meeting. Blame the whole PTP for ignoring all the public comments. Blame PTP for kicking out the civil servant that exposed it. Don't blame the NACC for doing its job where Tarit failed, PTP failed, Yingluck failed. But don't call it a judicial coup because that will show how you have failed too. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scamper Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 As the NACC quietly and diligently amasses all this incriminating evidence, the impeachment of the Yingluck administration is all but inevitable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fab4 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Not really, it just means where there's smoke there's fire and they will prosecute. Yet you and many others on this board continue to lambast anybody for suggesting "where there's smoke there's fire and they will prosecute" with respect to abhisit and sutheps murder charges. Double standards, surely not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is that an appropriate word to explain your posts and 'thinking'? Is your bar girl connected to the graft, or just how will you benefit from these clowns? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
