Popular Post PREM-R Posted December 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2014 We have seen a few, very senior, officials charged with corruption but have they been targeted for their 'corruption' or for their 'allegiance' to people other than the new 'top dog'? If further arrests, over a wide range, continue then maybe, maybe, Prayuth can claim some achievement. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxclever Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Corruption suppression?? Does that mean no more corruption? So the "tea money" my wife paid at the land department last Friday didn't happen? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NongKhaiKid Posted December 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2014 The only result has been that of the ex-CIB chief and his associates which was carefully targeted and may involve more than just corruption. Everyone else appears to have simply married into money. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinger Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Another misleading headline and story. Headline.... 46% of leaders of 629 communities saw corruption suppression was the most tangable ....... Story line ...46% of respondents cited corruption suppression as the most tangable.....

Monkeysee Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Only a few or 54 per cent of leaders of 738 communities saw that corruption was still rampant and to call this an achievement of the Prayut Chan-o-cha government would be a mockery.

Chris Lawrence Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 That sounds right, 104.1% out of 100%? How do they do these surveys? as the method is just as important as the result. It tells if the survey is valid or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aesbangkok Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 The most important thing here are the key words, "46 per cent of leaders" (btw % is one word 'percent'). Leaders obviously in support of said "leader". And corruption suppression? Give me a break...in over 30 years in Thailand every "leader" makes an attempt justifying a cause Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmarlowe Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Ummm. The anti corruption drive seems to be aimed a politicians, of a certain party, and a few high level examples in the police force. It seems unlikely that not one of the very, very wealthy 1500 generals has not found himself in the spotlight. Any insights into this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbthailand Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Corruption suppression most tangible achievement of Prayut govt more like maintaining control and snuffing out any and all resistance no matter how small. Wanna wear black, not allowed. Tell the NHRC that they're not doing their job, then off to attitude adjustment. Corruption? nothing actually being done on that front. Ask the 'PM' about his own family wealth and see what the answer is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have been clearer, I was referring to the less than 50% of the eligible voters that PTP received in the last elections, but then continually claimed they had the majority vote of the people. Technically they had received the "majority" (as a single party) of all votes cast, but that did not equate (as they claimed) that the "majority" of the people voted for them and therefore they had the people's mandate to do as they wished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemac Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Corruption suppression?? Does that mean no more corruption? So the "tea money" my wife paid at the land department last Friday didn't happen? Do you mind me asking why you had to pay tea money at the Land Department ? The reason I ask is my wife and I just went through the business of building a new house at Saraphee, outside of Chiang Mai, and we had to submit copies of our house plans signed by the draftsman, sign lots of documents etc and I don't think we had to pay any extra.
