TallGuyJohninBKK Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) Honestly, I don't think there really is any kind of NEW corruption in Thailand. Whatever it is, almost certainly, it's all been done before by someone here. And they likely got away with it.

darksidedog Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 It would certainly do wonders for the balance of payments, if Thailand could somehow export corruption. World class product, massive depth of experience to support it, a product for every eventuality, with possibly the only glitch being to convince the customers, that they weren't going to end up being cheated.

Each package would come with guaranteed bail in the case an investigation needs to find a scapegoat to keep the (Thai-style) books balanced. No money back guarantee, however, as the mia noi needs a new Benz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humqdpf Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 For a moment I thought we had a real news story about Thailand on TV - a new form of corruption. Instead, it was the same old story about embezzlement of funds donated to Buddhist organization. Same old story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
