There is a two tiered justice system in the West as well as in Asia. There is one set of rules for those of power and privilege and another set you you and me. But when was the last military Coup in Europe ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odisan Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 "...but they still are baffled by the reason given by the National Anti-Corruption Commission [NACC]...” First day in Thailand then, huh? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet, they were very swift acting on Thanatorng, who never gave the NACC any B/S about his dealing's with his parties actions. Just shows what evil greedy bastards they are' 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of the reasons why Thailand has reached its high economic point and is about to go into reverse economically. Wherever there is money and people there will always be some form of corruption and theft, cannot erradicate it completely. However there is no place in the world for blatant and open corruption that has existed in the past, and in Thailands case still exists today. It is visible in almost every level in society, including the daily activities of the Police force that seem to exist purely as a commercial entity focusing on collecting money rather then enforcing the law. China has started it's journey on smashing corruption, they understand they cannot be a beacon for the world as the largest economy and endure a reputation for being corrupt. It's about time Thailand did so, especially as it is one of the largest economies in SE Asia. If it does not get rid of these "old boys" with their "old, corrupt ways" the country will certainly suffer as it is known and proven that top level corruption stunts economic growth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAZZPA Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 1 hour ago, flexomike said: friend supposedly passed away He basically simply picked someone he knows that passed away and quoted the name, job done. For the ring belonging to his mother that's just utterly ridiculous. As someone has already stated would his Mum own a mans ring in the size to fit a fat mans finger? My mother has rings, they are feminine solitaires and such and in no way could they ever fit my fingers,, how this was accepted as reasonable explanations casts a serious question mark over the legitimacy on the anti-graft agency responsible.

It will one day, or Thailand will have to accept it will lose it's position as number 1 economy in SE Asia and be left well behind by the competition who are cleaning up their acts, investing and growing at a much faster rate.
