No evidence of wrongdoing has been found in the investigation into alleged transplant in the purchasing of exercising equipment for seven entertainment and sports facilities in the capital.
Bangkok government Chadchart Sittipunt made the announcement on Monday regarding the investigation’s conclusion, which was launched in June of last year. The investigation was launched to determine whether 29 Bangkok Metropolitan Administration ( BMA ) officials had any corroborating evidence in the procurement project, which was worth 77.22 million baht.
The project was created to provide training tools for the people at seven entertainment and sporting facilities across the area, including On Nut Sports Centre, the 72nd Anniversary Stadium, Mitr Maitree Sports Centre, Wachirabenchathat Sports Centre, Waree Phirom Sports Centre, BMA Recreation Center, and Wat Dok Mai Recreation Centre.
The discussion began when the Anti-Corruption Organization of Thailand (ACT) claimed last year that the purchasing words badly favored some candidates over people. For instance, a company may have won at least 40 arrangements of comparable price before taking part in the selling process, which means just two companies.
These firms secured the agreements with raised prices, with items like a gym listed as costing 759, 000 ringgit– far above the market price of 100, 000 to 300, 000 ringgit.
Mr. Chadchart had recently claimed that the concern was primarily due to the shortcomings in the position procurement law. However, the president’s latest order, issued on Jan 14, stated that the investigation found no evidence that indicated that the officers had violated purchasing requirements.
