General Udomdej says he is not worried with investigations into Rajabhakdi park project



BANGKOK: -- Deputy Defence Minister Udomdej Seetabutr said Tuesday that he was not worried with the investigations into suspected corruption in the construction of the Rajabhakdi park project by the National Anti-Corruption Centre and the Office of the Auditor-General.

Outcomes of the two separate investigations by the NACC and the OAG are expected by the end of this month, he said, adding that two previous probes carried out by the Defence Ministry and the Army on the same matter did not show any corruption in the implementation of the project.

The former army chief who is also secretary-general of the Rajabhakdi Park Foundation insisted that everyone who was involved in the park project was dedicated to the project to make it a landmark which will keep the public reminded of the dedication to the kingdom by our previous great kings.

He admitted that there were some issues that caused misunderstanding to some people but authorities concerned would try to clarify them.

After all the investigations are over, General Udomdej said the next step that needs to be done is how to make use of the leftover of the donation for the project.

Does he mean by clarify to abduct people by soldiers without a warrant?

Nothing changes except the uniform

He doesn't need to worry of course. In the unlikely event that those 'independent' agencies have the audacity to come up with something, there is always the amnesty arrangement.

Nothing to see here, move along..

Who in any investigative agency would dare to find there was a case to answer unless the nod came from on high and that's not going to happen.

I thought this had been swept under the rug already?

Surprised to see it pop up again.

Udomdej himself has brought this up again by crowing that he's not worried and with good reason but no need to draw attention to the fact the ' investigation ' and forgone conclusion are a farce but Thais in his position just can't be discreet and keep quiet.

You may have got away with it today, but for how much longer.

Why did everybody involved flee to other countries?

Udomjev says it's just a 'misunderstanding', so nothing to see here then! Thailand the hub of misunderstandings, mis-translations and brake failures.

They are just squashing down the bumps under the carpet, i'm sure he has a fresh load of fat envelopes lined up.

General Udomdej is a good officer and good officers don't get caught.

Of course nothing to worry...he's the ARMY...

This is just a shot across the bow of would be critics. A little display of power. Fair warning.

I doubt he is. Assured that, no matter what, he will remain squeaky clean.

Of course he isn't worried. Nothing will ever happen to him over it. He is one of the 'good' people.

I suspect the pro junta brigade will give this thread a wide berth

I have some compassion for the guys who honestly thought this junta was acting for the betterment of Thailand.

I feel we are only at the close of Act 1 in a three act play. The real drama has yet to unfold.

I don't. People should learn from history and they should know the army in Thailand. They have NEVER done anything for the betterment of Thailand.

If I had the PM backing me, I would´nt be worried either!
