Funny how some can be implemented immediately, but some need contingency plans.

30 M Baht per month....not enough

given to BIB.....Busted!

The fact that one of them so readily admitted to being the boss means only one thing. The real boss is sitting comfortably at home (or in his station, barracks, etc.).

Maybe these sharp guys can be hired into the government to help with things?
