Abhisit praises Apirak for showing accountability

Democrat Party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva on Thursday said Apirak Kosayodhin is a true Democrat after the Bangkok governor announced to suspend his duty in order to show accountability for the fire trucks scandal.

"Apirak has done his best to consult with relevant agencies about the legality of the contract but he was told to comply with it and had no other options," Abhisit said in reference to Apirak's involvement in making downpayments inspite of irregularities which led to the graft ruling against him.

My Take:
It's a good example for all Thai politicians. Even though this can be looked as making his image (or Democrat Party) looks better than PPP's people including Samuk S. the P.M. The bar has been raised.
