Det finns bönder som inte fått betalt på upp till nio månader dom flesta inte sedan början Oktober. BAAC hade inte fått några pengar av regeringen, om det funnits pengar varför betalades inte bönderna innan regeringen upplöstes.? Jo pengarna var slut.
Läste nyss en debattartikel ur gårdagens Nation, där man har förmågan att både inse att risprogrammet som sådant är en katastrof men att anledningen till att bönderna nu inte får betalt är den pågående krisen där upplösandet av parlamentet omöjliggjort.för regeringen att fullfölja sina åtaganden gentemot risbönderna.
"Taken at face value, this populist policy designed to win farmers' votes is a fairy tale. The reality is that corruption is rampant in the rice-pledging scheme, which has extended its budget from Bt500 billion to more than Bt700 billion. Out of this, losses from both inefficiency and corruption are estimated at about Bt400 billion. So there was no money recycled back from the Commerce Ministry to start the fresh round of the scheme, which started last October. Kittiratt's Finance Ministry had never been prepared to raise the original Bt500-billion budget, hoping instead that the Commerce Ministry would send the proceeds from the rice sale, government-to-government deals or whatever, to keep the scheme alive. But the money never arrived.
As a result, the farmers who have pledged their paddy have not received any payment since October. When PremierYingluck Shinawatra dissolved Parliament on December 9, she and her Cabinet forgot to approve a fresh budget for the rice pledge, which had been expanded due to failure of the Commerce Ministry to recycle the money back. Thus, it now has no money to pay to the farmers. In its reduced "caretaker" capacity, Kittiratt's Finance Ministry is constitutionally barred from borrowing money that would create obligations for the next government. Kittiratt has resorted to every means to come up the money to pay to the farmers. But he and others involved in attempts to secure the Bt130 billion risk violating the law."
