I am not going to talk about cooked results, voting scam or corruption. That never happen in
Thailand. I am not going to mention Qatar buying Thailand vote to win the right to host the 2022
World Cup. How many millions did you make “Worawi Makudi”?
Anyway, its only millions. What about the Billions that these “Generals” will be making. Who’s
going to check and balance the ruling military regime? No One. Such is the nature of absolute
rule. Under military rule, there won’t be any MPs scrutinizing these projects in parliament. There
won’t be any businessmen coming out to discuss if there’s any corruption. State agencies won’t
keep watch. Media can’t criticize Junta. They can’t even ask General “Prayuth” hard questions,
only easy questions allowed.
In Thailand, corruption isn’t just a problem. It’s endemic. The Thai Chamber of Commerce
(TCC) has previously estimated that corruption accounted for about 30% of any given
development project. Some have said it is as high as 50%. Better cut than street Mafia.
A new 18-member of the Board of Investment has been appointed by an order of the National
Council for Peace and Order with General Prayuth Chan-ocha sitting in the board as the
chairman. The other members of the board are ACM Prajin Jantong, air force commander-inchief and advisory board of NCPO; General Chatchai Sarikalya, deputy chief of the advisory
board.
Its good to see Thailand wealth goes to the “Generals”. Anyway General Prayuth, you
were due to retire from the Army in September. Not now, the Sky has opened and billions will be
yours now. Welcome to Thailand Billionaire Club. Where is no questions asked. Its a Free Ride.
