webfact Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Top cop defies order to clarify salary from brewery By Sasiwan Mokkhasen, Staff Reporter Bangkok police chief Sanit Mahatavorn warns motorists not to catch Pikachu or other Pokemon while driving on Aug. 21 in Bangkok. BANGKOK — Both the chief of Bangkok police and the nation’s largest beverage company failed to respond to a state watchdog’s demand they clarify their financial relationship. Sanit Mahatavorn and ThaiBev were given a week to explain whether Sanit was still a paid adviser to the company, which produces alcohol under the Chang and SangSom brands. The deadline expired Thursday.

BigBadGeordie Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 (edited) "The secretary-general of the state ombudsman’s office, Raksagecha Chaechai, said Thursday that his organization would have to discuss its response, saying it could choose to renew its request to both parties." Seems reasonable to me, just ask again, after all they are busy people. “If it’s necessary for them to gather documents, they could ask to extend the deadline,” he said Thursday. “But if they neglected to respond, they might not know that’s a criminal offense.” Possible they did not know it is a criminal offence, may'be the Thaibev team of lawyers missed this. As for the other party involved, how could they expect him to know he is only the Bangkok Pollice Chief. "His total annual remuneration is 1,425,600 baht per month," Nice work if you can get it!

Seligne2 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Crappy reporting as is the norm. I think it's 1,425,600 per year. Still a shocking sum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAG Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Let us be fair, I should imagine he is very busy, if not fully committed, to combating the dread threat of the craft brewers.You may scoff, but the damage caused to society by these wicked evil gangsters could be immense. Not only can buildings disintegrate spectacularly under the pressure of the teeming crowds of rabid drunkards, but the very foundations of the nations commercial, economic and social fabric are threatened by this filthy deviant activity.I'm sure that when a final victory over these nefarious criminals can be declared (and it may take time - these things do), he will lean back, pour himself a glass of beer, and turn his mind to these minor questions...

yellowboat Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Wonder who else in government has a side gig with Thai Bev ? Love their Ginger Ale, not their beer. London Police Commissioner : £270,648 New York City Police Chief's Salary : $189,700 What happens if Thai Bev has other highly placed officials doing consulting ? The good general's remarks regarding brewing beer in toilets was colorful and sadly revealing as to how much of an imbecile and a elitist tool he actually is.

jayboy Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Interesting in this case that the money for this senior policeman comes from Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi's Thai Bev company.That by an astonishing coincidence is the group to whom Prayuth's father sold land for Bt 600 million in 2011.A special offshore company was set up in the British Virgin Islands for this purpose.

Sadly those in high places seem to treat the Ombudsman as someone they can stall or simply ignore. Several years ago the then Ombudsman asked Yingluck and her number 1 cousin to explain the illegal issuing under special circumstances of new passports to their criminal relation. Yingluck asked for 3 months to answer, then another 3, then said the person working on the answer had changed and she'd need more time. Still no answer and they've given up asking. No fine, no threat of imprisonment. just fades away. Expect deja vu. Must be frustration being the Ombudsman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder promotions are up for sale. Its like buying a guaranteed lottery ticket once you hit the top. Then if you use the 1000's of generals multiplication factor it truly gets astounding and unbelievable.
