lewy67 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 The NACC should charge the general for not acting earlier and preventing the losses of the rice scheme. Surely he has some responsibility here if he was able to envisage the problems that were to arise. He did not act in time and is therefore culpable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the dreamers here will take note. Add in a couple of other groups maybe but this is the situation.loosely allied political monster who all combined give no thought to the average Somchai on the street. If u are cynical about western politics, Thai politics is even worse. NO ONE cares for the so called middle class and down. Not one iota. The so called middle class who probably only make up 5% of the population anyway are just as shafted as the poor, and yet apparentlt they are supported by yellows and the poor the reds. This is tosh, since neither group normally gets given anything by their chosen politicians.the only people who benefit traditionally from thai politics are the elite indistrialists, and land owners and the enobled. The rest just get to work and be happy for a 2 baht a day increase in the minimum wage or govt salariew going up. And to think idiots on here were claiming 25k per month is middle class. That is barely above a waitress with tips.the middle and lower classes should be united by in typical stupid Thai politics the politicians managed to turn them on each other and those at the top continue to divvy up the country with impunuty . Thailand, where hi so apparently starts at 50k per month in the eyes of stupid farangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lite Beer Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 Yingluck ignored Prayut's concernsThe Nation BANGKOK: -- PM reveals he raised problems caused by ricepledging scheme long before the coupPRIME MINISTER General Prayut Chan-o-cha yesterday said he had voiced his concerns to his deposed predecessor Yingluck Shinawatra about the mounting problems from her government's controversial rice-pledging scheme but she had insisted that she would be responsible for the consequences.Prayut said he had personally raised the issue with Yingluck long before the May 22 coup, when he was serving as the Army commander-in-chief."I asked her what she would do in response to the problems that were affecting people. She said that she would deal with the issue herself because her administration was in charge. She said she had measures to solve the problems and explain them to the public," Prayut told reporters yesterday."She said it would be fine, as she intended to do her duty to the best of her ability. She said that she had all the evidence needed to fight any legal case stemming from the project. And I said it's up to her," he said.Prayut, who led the coup following months of political violence, noted that at the time there had been increasing criticism of the rice-pledging scheme.Meanwhile, the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) has sent a written request to the Finance Ministry to consider filing a civil case against Yingluck, her former commerce minister Boonsong Teriyapirom and other officials for compensation in connection with the claimed government-to-government deal to sell rice to China.NACC president Panthep Klanarongran said yesterday that he had sent the request now that the anti-graft agency had already indicted those allegedly involved in the wrongdoing.Panthep said the NACC had not suggested any figure for the damages, as the Finance Ministry should already have details of the compensation to be sought.In late January, the NACC had filed corruption charges against Boonsong and former deputy commerce minister Poom Sarapol with the Supreme Court's Criminal Division for Political Office Holders in connection with the fake G2G rice deal.Compensation soughtThe two had claimed that Yingluck's government had won a deal to sell rice bought from farmers under the rice-pledging scheme to the Chinese government. But the NACC found that the companies commissioned to undertake the G2G deal actually sold the rice locally, instead of exporting it.Panthep said the NACC would also suggest that the Finance Ministry seek compensation from Yingluck in a separate case regarding her government's rice-pledging scheme.He said the NACC commissioners would discuss the matter next Tuesday and a written request would be sent to the Finance Ministry later that day.Yingluck's lawyer Norawich Lalaeng yesterday said all parties involved agreed that the former prime minister did not have to be present in the Supreme Court next Thursday when public prosecutors file a corruption case against her in connection with the rice-subsidy scheme.He also told The Nation that Yingluck's legal team had not received any response from the Office of the Attorney-General about their request to review the case.Yingluck, who is living in her home city of Chiang Mai, is expected to return to Bangkok in a day or two, according to a source close to her.Yesterday she went with her son Supasek Amornchat and her sister Yaowapa Wongsawat to a department store in Chiang Mai, accompanied by bodyguards in two vehicles.The ex-PM was greeted by many admirers, who wanted to have photos taken with them. Yingluck, however, declined to talk to reporters who were following her entourage.A Government House source said authorities needed to provide increased security to Yingluck by having security officials follow her because she was considered a "possibly vulnerable target"."She is among the first persons the government and the National Council for Peace and Order need to provide special care to," the source said yesterday. "If something happens to her, there will be impacts on the government and the NCPO."

Popular Post draftvader Posted February 14, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 14, 2015 A number of posts (coincidentally posted VERY late on Friday night/early Saturday morning ) have been removed for quite a large amount of profanity. We do have a filter but it does become slightly difficult and disturbing to read a ream of aggressive posting interspersed with obvious <deleted> (I'm British, my mind automatically knows the words....bit like spot the ball competitions). Personally I love a good swear and make tracks to my inner teenager every time my 3 year old is out of the house. Nonetheless I recognise that it does not add to the debate but merely serves to fuel the fire (I think we call this flaming....hint to the poster) so refrain from using it online (no matter how much my passport eggs me on). I'm going to suggest that instead of <deleted> we replace with random "fluffy" words like "flower" or "marshmallows". It would make it a lot more fun to read. Right, drink your coffee and keep the debate on track please. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it's wonderful for Prayut that he can say anything he wants to the media, but Yingluck is prevented from saying anything. Wonderful Democracy we have going here.

I hope she will sit in jail for a long time for all the grief she caused and the deaths to the farmers too. Not to mention the losses. In a civilized country she would have budgeted for the program and then all was alright. However she never included enough money in the budget. This was because there was a max deficit already and then the other vote buying schemes could not go through.

mikemac Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 In a civilized country, this kind of prejudicial statement made to the public by the leader of the country before a trial would get the case dismissed. The leader of the country makes some truly dumb statements. I don't support YS or the rice scheme. I don't support illegal juntas. The international community doesn't support this junta. I simply can't imagine how the general could make such a statement before a trial. A lot of the announcements made by other countries regarding the coup is just "computer generated", they have to say things like that to support their image. I would like to be a fly on the wall when the foreign leaders discuss the antics of the Shin regime, that would be really interesting. You can't tell me they don't know what was going on before.

rubl Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Of course she and her brother knew there were serious problems with the price pledging scheme but Thaksin (who was behind this like he was behind everything Yingluck did) didn't care. First his push for amnesty was shot down, then his shady, corrupt rice scheme. Follow the money and you will see that this corruption travels from the top to the bottom. Billions of baht has been skimmed off all up and down the program. There was not any provable leakage of billions of baht. There was a loss because they paid a subsidised price. She isn't accused of corruption, she is accused of negligence. They have one deal of not supplying to Iran for which someone is in jail, and faked b to b deals. The bulk of the loss is in structural loss not corruption Structural losses in a self-financing scheme? Sounds like you accuse Ms. Yingluck of deceiving and defrauding the Nation of 700 billion Baht.

For one we have no democracy now, you might have missed that. Furthermore Ms. Yingluck has made statements for 2-1/2 year while being PM, statements which can and most likely will now be used against her. Ms. Yingluck got a chance to say a lot in her defence when the NACC invited her and gave a cupboard full of documents for her legal team to study, in February 2014 three months before the coup. Hardly a month ago Ms. Yingluck was invited to answer questions to the NLA which she declined. Now her legal team doesn't seem to even want to give her a chance to clear her name in the Supreme Court when the charge is made there next week. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if this were not an attractive woman, and a very wealthy one at that, whether those posters would be so sympathetic to her plight. Here's an experiment for you.

Any dirty trick is being dusted off to be used it would seem. you really (REALLY) believe that 700 billion figure? wow... just WOW... just shows the junta brainwashing machine is : Working as Intended Still counting, it would seem it will be a tad higher than 700,000,000,000.00 Baht Let's not forget the interest on the debt to pay the banks to pay the farmers because the Yingluck Thaksin government didn't set enough money aside. Let's also not forget that now, Bt. 700 billion can't be spent on all kinds of good things like education, infrastructure, etc. because it has gone into the pockets of a few large landowners, rice mill owners, warehouse owners, and a few lucky farmers, etc. The poorest rice farmers didn't qualify for the program. The damage from this theft will hurt Thailand for generations. Thaksin got the money and Yingluck got left holding the bag empty rice sack. Do you think for one minute the Narcissist cares? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickymaster Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Thais and the Thai press are obsessed with Yingluck and this rice pledging scheme. The innocent looking lady with the sweet smile was the head of a scam that created 700,000,000,000 thb losses. Taxpayers money that is.Should the press just forget about it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
