The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) will ask budgetary authorities if the delayed 5.8-billion-baht police stations construction project breached procurement regulations.

Thanin Prempree, the DSI's director for corruption prevention and suppression, said he would ask the Budget Bureau and Comptroller-General's Department (CGD) today about the legality of the project.

Mr Thanin said he will ask if the project was illegitimately altered to award a single contract to one bidder to construct the 396 police station buildings nationwide.

D#3 sorry to correct your English. It's "too" not "to", also its "aligned" not "alined". On the other hand your actual comment is 100% correct.

Didn't PCC say they would explain everything weeks ago? What happened to that? Agree.Disc.1 Why is DSI not interviewing the company involved?

DSI to expand investigation? Its a simple case of a contractor failing to carry out the contract. Having failed in the PT directed witch hunt, the DSI now needs to save its face. The corruption comes from RTPO's inability to project manage the project. Monies paid, monies misappropriated. Try targeting PCC. BP try some investigative reporting. Do some digging.
