AI5AASIA Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 1 hour ago, robblok said: Yes it could have been explained far better by the government as there are still people who think its about he rice program while it was not. It was all about the fraud inside the program and the top ministers being involved in it. Now its being touted as an unfair ruling about the rice program while it was not about the price guarantee (one that I think was bad too I don't believe in them not in these or in those of the current government) Having just read an article on a MTIC VAT fraud case in the UK and seen the chart that Wikipedia use to explain it's basic workings, the attachment by Dutch State give a good simple explanation. So easy to replicate this to reflect the Rice Fraud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they let her go and go quick as they didn't want any riots or an uprising, this would have suited their cause and give her freedom, if it is as I believe, she made the right decision, just saying.

I dont understand that. Maybe if you read all post you would have understood it. Guess you have not. (what was done was mentioned before) This is not about the rice subsidy but about fake G2G deals that cost 20 billion baht. Basically they said they sold rice to China (that was allowed at a lower price). But the trades were fake and the rice was sold back into the system at the higher price a 20 billion fraud. Maybe now you understand and next time read better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unblocktheplanet Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I have never before heard of any govt, including third-world despots, jailing a civil servant for the performance of his duty. Yes, maybe the rice-pledge idea was cracked but I believe it was conceived and implemented remarkably honestly. Govts & their employees, both elected & appointed, make mistakes, more frequently than not. So what?!? Imagine a Thai govt programme without corruption. The rice-pledge is possibly unique in that regard. How long will it be before the swindlers behind the submarine & fighter jet purchases, high-speed rail, environmentally disastrous major hydropower dams, the Kra Canal, and many, many other ill-conceived projects are banged up in the hoosegow? They'll be wearing quite different uniforms soon, we can hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand is the only country I've ever heard of that creates new laws and then applies them retroactively, especially against political opponents. Corruption on steroids.
