re: "THAI reports B10.9bn net loss for Jan-Sept" (BP, November 15, 2019) and "Creative accounting" (PostBag, November 15, 2019)
Dear editor,
I now feel quite the gullible fool for merely being amazed two days ago that THAI, the national disgrace, was predicting a loss of a "mere" 2.2 billion baht this year.
Generously respecting the venerable traditions of Thainess, that earlier claim a full two days ago was presumably one of those amazing "honest mistakes" so valued by conservative Thai tradition that must be rigorously protected by coups, against the threat of transparency, honesty or other good governance.
If the THAI white elephant's loss for January to September is now running at an even more amazing 10.9 billion baht, what might it be next week? And the week after that? And come New Year's Eve?
The mind boggles. The tax payers are presumably all a quiver.
Felix Qui
