A few weeks ago PAD's official English language mouthpiece TANN had an op-ed as follows:
We must try to purge Thailand of corruption, particularly among politicians so any laws that do that must be supported. It may seem like the politicians are being picked on by these nitty-gritty laws but anything to keep them from dipping into the cookie jar. And enough already with the excuse that they forgot they have these shares. If they can't be responsible for getting their financial affairs in order before assuming office, how can we trust them with our future? Politics is not child's play so politicians have to beware of what they're getting into and get their house in order. That means washing their hands off any shares in private companies. It's simple enough!
The Nation:
The Election Commission received reports alleging that the wife of Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya holds shares in Bangkok Expressway Plc, EC secretary-general Suthiphon Thaveechaiygarn said Thursday.
The EC was due to meet and decide on the case next Thursday, Suthiphon said.
BP: So does his wife hold shares?
