@wakeup. Spot on ! Exploitation of the worst kind. Sickening !

@bonzo, Right,'reported'. How much more is being kept hidden ?

I hope NACC keep a close eye on them and investigate sudden inexplicable gains in wealth.

Looks suspiciously like an Amart Cabinet to me, what then is the average net wealth of voting Thais and how about one of those handy polls to see what all the poor Isarn folk think of their leaders being 10,000 times richer than they are, no double standards here eh!

And these are the red shirt heroes. That's why all the red shirts want to get into politics. That's why Thaksin and Arisman can't wait to get back here. But Yingluk and Chalerm have to change the laws first.

So how exactly is PTP not as rich, wealthy and as elitist as the "Amart?" In fact, as hilarious as it is to see these people attempt to pose as "salt of the earth" types, I can think of no crueler joke to play on the less fortunate of society than to pretend to be one of them, to understand their problems and to falsely promise them solutions and false hope. Democrats neglecting problems is terrible, PTP exploiting them is atrocious.

D7 Franklin makes a good point about seeing what these people do. A simple measurement would be their parliamentary attendance record. How about selecting Jatuporn to be the "testing rat" . I do not think he even knows where parliament house is.

But what about the accounts of their maids and drivers? A great place to hide assets and avoid taxes; just ask Potjamarn.

Word to the wise. If you ever meet any of the richer make sure you check you still have your wallet/purse and mobile phone before you leave.
