Warong says PM was aware of the fake G-to-G rice deals with China



BANGKOK: -- Ex-Democrat MP Warong Dejkitwikrom told the probe panel of the National Anti-Corruption Commission that he believed caretaker Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra was fully aware of the fake government-to-government rice deal between Thailand and China but did nothing about it.

Dr Warong, the “whistle-blower” who exposed the suspected massive corruption in the government’s rice pledging scheme, including the fake G-to-G deals with China, told the probe panel that Ms Yingluck, in her capacity as the chair of the National Rice Policy Committee, knew every step about the deals but chose not to do anything or to suspend the deals.

NACC spokesman and head of the probe panel Vicha Mahakhun said, in the next step, the panel would invite representatives from the National Audit Office to testify before formal charges are to be lodged against the prime minister expected by the end of this month.

Earlier, former commerce minister Boonsong Teriyapirom and his deputy as well as over ten other people have been charged with corruption in connection with the fake G-to-G Chinese rice deals.

Confiscate her passport and then have a new one issued immediately.

This bloke is really sharp. The whole world knew it was a bogus deal.

They laughed at him when he brought that up in the censure debate.

Now, as me ancient granny used to say, they are laughing on the other side of their faces.

The only problem with the G 2 G deal was that it was with local Government in China rather than National Government. These deals have been going on for years with no problem. Now they make a big fuss just to put more pressure on YL.

"Ms Yingluck, in her capacity as the chair of the National Rice Policy Committee, knew every step about the deals but chose not to do anything or to suspend the deals."

Ahhh.....bless her......she never knew anything.........she never did anything and she will never do anything in the future.

She hasn't got the brain for things like that.

No normally, a private thai company, supplies to China, and the invoices get swilled around in Hong Kong so no one knows the margin, and what was paid this way and that.

By direct from the government to the government and all of a sudden everyone wants to know what was paid. Not particularly good if you can get s bullet in the head in china for overpaying.

False

Yingluck knew nothing about the scam

she was busy packing the money they gave her to go on a shopping trip

You have also said she chairs the National Rice Policy Committee and we all know YL doesn't do committees.

Which would have made it a G2LG deal and not a G2G deal. Local government lol.

Would not the anti-corruption PM have spoken out, against the degree of certainty her government was claiming for these massive 'deals', if she had been aware of their nebulous nature ?

Perhaps some adviser she really trusts (hint ... living in the Middle-East) assured her that it was all above-board and OK ?

He says, she says. Thai "news" is always he says, she says and he says.

I believe that the main problem was that the "Chinese" company was the wife of the airline tycoon, Arisman.

This bloke is really sharp. The whole world knew it was a bogus deal.

Apparently not the whole world knew. It was kept quite in Thailand for if they knew it was bogus they might not have participated. Hindsight is 20/20 though so im sure the farmers who suspectes this to be too good to be true are kicking themselves in the arse.

.....she never knew anything........ Why would she bother her pretty little head with minor details but like most women she would have known exactly how much her share was going to be.

I think the girl just had no idea what to do. Sees nothing, does nothing, understands nothing. Deer in the headlights syndrome.

Warong says PM Yingluck was aware of the fake G-to-G rice deals with China

She thought it was Gucci to Gucci.

The NACC are gathering evidence quickly.

The protests are being cracked down on as we speak.

If Suthep and a bunch of leaders get arrested today, I can guarantee within 2 days the government will be impeached along with Yingluck and likely arrested and detained.

You all know what will happen after that

This crackdown Chalerm will find will serve to speed up his demise.

The government can't win this fight even if they remove every last protester, they will all get released by the courts and have their cases thrown out.

When you don't have the courts in your pocket, you are stuffed.

And when they do show up to discuss, all they can manage is to spew out a few sentence fragments totally unrelated to the discussion thread.

"Well, um, Suthep is corrupt. Derp, He's corrupt Derp Derp, this is not Democracy, Derrrrp."

Well, Dr Bruce has been chucking in a few desperate lines, give him that.

Can anyone explain just what exactly the allegation is re the "fake" G-to-G rice deals with China, or cite to an explantion?

I remember when YL met with the Chinese Premier last year, and the Thai government at that time claimed the Chinese govt was going to buy something like 1 million tons per year of rice. But as best as I recall, the Chinese government at that time never said anything about such a deal.

So is the allegation that the whole thing was just false and there was no deal. Or, are we talking about the details of some actual deal just being different from what had been publicly reported, such as the sale being to private intermediaries instead of direct to the Chinese govt?

Is this the "fake" deal the NACC is currently looking at? None of the various posts on the supposed investigation ever actually detail the specifics.

I don't beleve she know the deal was fake,she was just repeating what square head told her to say

I supposed that's because it's an ongoing investigation.

Ahh...so that's why folks from the NACC are in the news every other day publicly talking about their case and already have forecast that they plan to charge YL by month's end??? Because, of course, their investigation is ongoing...
