Popular Post overt2016 Posted December 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 3, 2020 Stop it. Stop it now! Don't you people realise you are all tarnishing the reputation ot Thailand. I should know. I am a member of parliament who is helping to free the country of creepy crawlies by running chickens in open country. Just leave us MP's and army appointed admins to serve us {oops] the peasants with our greed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlfHuy Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 And if by chance one of the big ones gets caught having transferred money "to his own private account", it will be treated as an honest, human mistake. 5 was and 500baht and all is forgiven and forgotten.

That is 6 mTHB to each for 1500 hours extra work on top of the regular work +-1700 hours/year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demanding and receiving kickbacks is a fundamental part of their job benefits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Aussiepeter Posted December 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 3, 2020 Umpteen years of systemic and endemic corruption at all levels of Thai society, have now come to roost in what is a totally failed nation. I was posted to LOS for 5 years in the 90's. I could not believe the level of corruption here when I settled in. Even the post office in the remote backwoods of the north-east I was sent to initially was bent. My mail went missing - I paid a 'fee' and it miraculously re-appeared. Electricity problems - same deal. My salary, sent by telex to a Thai bank, went 'MIA', for up to 3 weeks at a time ! When I pursued the matter "oh, it is stuck in the wires between here and BKK" ! (Supposedly, some bank employees at the time were playing the short-term money market with any $ sent to a farang account and, pocketing the profits). Just after I married the missus in 2002, we went to 'Big C' in C Mai, as they had a market-stall day. The missus found a stall stocked with brand new TG stuff, including First Class kit, at very low prices. My "little lady" bought a complete set of TG silver cutlery - I settled for a pack of 50 brand new TG Business Class hand towels. As they used to say in the old BBC show 'Minder' - "it must have fallen off a truck'''. The demise of an airline once rated No 4 in the world, should come as no surprise to anyone in LOS, especially anyone who has had any dealings with TG in recent years. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxonbry Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 As Edwinchester said 10,000 each is entirely in the realm of normal, especially if Thai were short on staff levels in that dept. while fixing their certification problems. The figures in MisterWhister's post beggars belief . Bt 3,402,000,000 surely a typo ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mran66 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Whatever the findings in various reports will be, for sure it will be very entertaining for farang readers... I'm sure someone will either figure out to report, or have figured out to do in thai airline, something very funny and entertaining, should I say innovative in the domain of corruption, squandering, stealing and nepotism. Just waiting the hilarious report. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BM7591 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 9 hours ago, Misterwhisper said: This is unfortunately worded. There was a report a few months ago (it's on TV also, got to search for it) that actually said that EACH of the 567 staff allegedly clocked up 1,500 hour OT per year and EACH of them was allegedly paid Bt6 million OT compensation for that. Puts everything in a quite different perspective, huh? This paints a very different picture, indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
