THE NATION June 30
THE Bangkok Post's ex-chief reporter for military and security affairs, Sermsuk Kasitipradit, yesterday proclaimed victory after the Supreme Court ruled that the newspaper had unfairly dismissed him over his report in 2005 about cracks on the new Suvarnabhumi Airport's runway.

Sermsuk had earlier taken Post Publishing Plc, publisher of the Bangkok Post, the paper's former editor David Armstrong and the board of the newspaper's provident fund to the Central Labour Court after claiming his employment was unfairly terminated on August 29 2005, when the paper accused him of negligence in his reporting that caused damage to the company.

Sermsuk had asked the court to order the Bangkok Post to reinstate him at a salary no less than the amount he earned when dismissed. He also wanted the defendants to pay him Bt8 million in lost income and Bt5 million for damaging his honour plus 7.5 per cent annual interest. He had also sought the newspaper's provident fund to pay him an employer contribution of Bt623,700 plus interest.

The court ruled on July 24, 2007 that the company had dismissed him unfairly and ordered it to reinstate him with a salary not less than what he earned when he was dismissed. The court also ordered the company's provident fund to pay the employer's contribution plus interest. The court dropped the other charges and acquitted Armstrong of the charges.

Both the plaintiff and the defendants appealed against the ruling in the higher court.

The Supreme Court ruled that since Sermsuk and his former employee could no longer work together, the defendants must pay compensation to the plaintiff for ending his employment unfairly in accordance with Article 49 of the Labour Courts and Labour Court Procedures and the Establishment of the Labour Court Act.

The court ordered the Central Labour Court to determine the amount of compensation Sermsuk should receive.

The Central Labour Court scheduled July 17 as the date to decide the amount, which would be based on Sermsuk's age when he was dismissed, which was 50 years old, his 22 years of service to the paper and the troubles he went through following his dismissal.

Sermsuk, who is now the editor of Digital News TV, said he was overwhelmed by the court's ruling and was happy that his court struggle had set the norms for the media.

"What happened to me should not happen to others in this field. This is very important. From now on, capitalists must not fire journalists on the order of the political sector,'' he said.

"Thanks to the justice system. I have fought this case for 10 years. The Bangkok Post offered me Bt3 million but I think it was not right,'' he said.

He said he gave the Bangkok Post 22 years of service without a tainted record. "So I was shocked by what happened to me that day,'' he said.

He insisted that he was dismissed because of political interference. "A reporter during the Thaksin government testified in court that politics was behind my dismissal,'' he said.

Nakhon Chompuchat, Sermsuk's lawyer, said that apart from the compensation, the provident fund had to pay the employer contribution to Sermsuk in accordance with the lower court ruling.

Supporters of Sermsuk showed up to provide him and his family with moral support yesterday, including former Army chief adviser General Bunlert Kaewprasit, who testified as a plaintiff witness.
Endlich mal ein durch und durch positives und gerechtes Urteil!

Wer sich noch erinnert 2005, forderte Thaksin persönlich den damaligen Herausgeber
der Post auf diesen Nestbeschmutzer zu feuern!
Denn der hatte es gewagt die Realität auf Thaksins Egomanen Fliegerhorst zu berichten,
noch lange vor dessen Eröffnung!
Es ist selten in Thailand dass ein einfacher Angestellter nicht nur gegen seinen Arbeitgeber
sondern auch gegen das System gewinnt!
Schliesslich waren damals nicht nur Thaksin und der BP Herausgeber gegen Sermsuk
sondern auch Teile des Militärs!
Umso erfreulicher dass in Thailand die Gerechtigkeit manchmal doch noch gewinnt!

FORMER TOURISM Authority of Thailand governor Juthamas Siriwan will be indicted for allegedly accepting Bt60 million in bribes in 2010 in exchange for giving two US film executives movie festival contracts, an anti-graft official said yesterday.
The joint panel of the National Anti-Corruption Commission and the Office of the Auditor-General resolved on July 27 to indict Juthamas for graft, NACC secretary-general Sansern Polajiak said yesterday.

Juthamas will be given 15 days to report herself to the Attorney-General or she an arrest warrant, he said.

Sansern said prosecutors would file the indictment at the Criminal Court. She had the right to seek court approval for a temporarily release on bail, he said.

A source said Juthamas was still in the country.

US prosecutors charged Juthamas in 2009 with violations of the Money Laundering Control Act, alleging that she used the US financial system to promote or conceal violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and Thai law.

A jury convicted Hollywood film executives Gerald and Patricia Green of FCPA violations in 2010 for paying Juthamas US$1.8 million in bribes.

The US court case against Juthamas has been pending nearly six years due to extradition issues.
Auch diese Never Ending Story aus 2010 scheint während der Militärdiktatur
endlich mal zu einem Ende zu kommen.
Das Schlimme in Thailand ist, dass auf jeden Fall von Korruption der vor Gericht kommt
10 bis 100 kommen die niemals zur Anklage kommen.
Auch der Fall Juthamas kam nur wegen der Verfahren in den USA vor Gericht!

Road rage killer "Moo Ham" jailed
Kesinee Taengkhiao
The Nation September 18, 2015 4:53 pm
The Supreme Court has jail a man over a much-publicised fatal road rage incident, overruling the lower court's verdict.
Kanpitak Pachimsawat, widely known as "Moo Ham", crashed his Mercedes Benz into a crowd of people in 2007, killing a bus conductor.

The 27-year-old, who has previously sought mental treatment, appeared calm as the verdict was read out yesterday. He has been jailed for two years and one month.

His parents, businessman Kan-anek and former beauty queen Savinee, were not present for the verdict.

Kanpitak was convicted on all counts for killing and injuring others.

According to witnesses, Kanpitak quarrelled with a bus driver and hit him with a rock on July 4, 2007.
Zu allem Überfluss einer parteiischen, unwilligen,unfähigen Polizei und Staatsanwaltschaft
kommt in Thailand auch noch eine lahme Justiz!

Es ist ja sehr erfreulich dass man die Schweinebacke in der X-ten Instanz verurteilt hat
seine Strafe abzusitzen.
Aber ob dies wirklich geschehen wird?
Wohl eher nicht denn hier ist Thailand!
Abgesehen von dem lächerlichen Strafmass für vorsätzlichen Mord
fehlten die Hauptschuldigen auf der Anklagebank
nämlich die Eltern die ihren damals gerade 18 Jahre alten
angeblich schwer geistig gestörten Jungen allein in der Stadt rumrasen
liessen.
Mal sehen welcher "Darsteller" für Schweinebacke in den Knast geht.
Wenn überhaupt!
