NACC Secretary-General confirms continued monitoring of digital wallet project

Secretary-General of the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) confirms that the digital wallet project will continue to be monitored, regardless of whether the project is terminated or not, and to monitor corruption. Mr. Niwatchai Kasem Mongkol, Secretary-General of the NACC, said about the news that the government's 10,000 baht top-up project via digital wallet will have to end after Mr. Settha Thavisin resigns from the position of Prime Minister that he still does not know whether it will end or not. But no matter what the project is, no matter which party it is, it is the duty of the NACC to provide advice, suggestions or opinions according to the law if it is found that there are circumstances that indicate that there will be improper operations that lead to corruption. In this regard, we must provide advice to monitor. In this regard, if the said policy is to be cancelled, can it be done or not? Mr. Niwatchai said that it is a matter for the policy department. The NACC has no authority to decide. It is a matter for the executives and the parliament, which must be asked about the policy of the implementation. The NACC is an agency that inspects. If we do it, we inspect it. That's all. But if we don't do it, there is nothing to inspect. -314. Source: Thai News Agency
