He made a criminal act to the bank, and the bank is responsible for reimbursement to their cutomers.

This is the part where the heads of the bank will start to distance themselves from the problem. Abandon ship!!

40 claimants = 40 million baht?

Coincidence?

Greed that will ruin his life when he is caught.

One would have thought that he would have been on a decent enough salary, to have a better than average lifestyle.

But with 40 million bath, isn't that enough to buy himself out of trouble?  As I recall, not too long ago, there was a guy who stole a few million dollars, but was fined a few thousand for the crime...so in Thailand at least, crime does pay...

Omsin is a govt bank, so he should be a karachagan with lots of links/ties and therefore traceable, with a wee bit of clever sleuthing. 

Clever sleuthing?    This is Thailand !!!

Approx 17800thb i guess. Manager. In. Bank. In. Thailand. But he gets free air-conditioned office.

This manager is just an ordinary person with the mentality of corruption is common and acceptable in the Thai society. Therefore, he is now trying out for himself. Its nothing special.

Same old story someone in a senior position ripping off people.

Sadly this is a common story in modern living.

People have to get rich quick, no saving slowly for the future anymore.

or working hard !

or maybe these villagers have worked hard all their lives and "favorable terms" made by the bank (manager) convinced them to take out the loan, get it approved and the money simply re-transferred into the wrong account (HIS account) or right account depending how you look at it.

In Thailand it's a rogue manager ripping off the vulnerable; in Australia ( and elsewhere no doubt) it's banks as institutions ripping off the entire population, legally but unethically, a $ here, 5$ there, surcharge on this and that, on everything....way beyond scandalous and all the while paying the executives who orchestrate the rort mega salary packages...beyond obscene.

customers cash.

I guess it's bad reporting again. Can't make out what it is, is it a loan? So if the bank give loan to this people, the money is not theirs and this manager took the money that belongs to the bank. Am I right ? These poor folks cannot be responsible for what the manager did to their loan ( the money)

 

[thai3]

Never heard of the Bank, thank goodness!

[Expat Brad]

No, the villagers give monies each month to the Puiyai or higher Amphor Authority who in turn gives it to the bank as an investment which is supposed to make a return to them. This Manager has simply done a runner with their investment.

Yup, agree, sitting right beside the junta leaders brother, nephew, sister-in-law, all the Hawaii junta junket crowd of forty people for 21 million baht, Suthep, the mad monk, the top cop taking 50 K per month from a booze company, the Rolls Royce jet engine corrupt officials, Blue diamond collective, etc,etc,etc, how's that for a start...
