Suranand asks DSI to probe alleged corruption involving previous govt

The prime minister's secretary-general, Suranand Vejjajiva, has requested the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) to probe alleged irregularities involving the previous government's Thai Khemkhaeng (Strong Thailand) project.

 

DSI director-general Tarit Pengdith said yesterday that his agency had got Suranand’s request for investigation into the project’s second stage regarding Bt5 billion allocated to the Education Ministry’s Vocational Education Commission. The Prime Minister’s Office had received complaints that the spending of the fund “lacked transparency”, according to the DSI chief.
