Jonathan Fairfield Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Samsenwittayalai director faces disciplinary investigation A committee will be set up to investigate the director of Samsenwittayalai School in Bangkok for a serious breach of discipline for allegedly demanding 400,000 baht in “tea money” from a parent in exchange for enrolling his child to study in Mathayom Sueksa 1, said Office of the Basic Education Commission (Obec) secretary-general Karun Sakulpradit. Mr Karun on July 19 revealed this after a meeting with Education Minister Teerakiat Jareonsettasin to consider a report from a fact-finding committee set up to investigate the allegation against Viroj Samruan, the school director. The fact-finding committee has found there are grounds to believe that the accusation against Mr Viroj is true.

BangkokReady Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 8 hours ago, Jonathan Fairfield said: Mr Karun went on to say that 400,000 baht is almost double the normal amount of tea money involved in acceptance to a Mathayom School of this standing. "It is particularly heinous on this occasion as the director did not pass any of the money up the chain to his superiors" said Mr Koran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graemeaylward Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 So a fact finding committee produced a report, recommending the setting up of another committee to investigate corruption! Why? Surely the police should be the ones to investigate as this is clearly a criminal matter!
