Subcontractor files case against PCC

A company subcontracted to build five police stations on Thursday filed a petition with the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) against PCC Development and Construction Co (PCC), accusing it of fraud.

The petition was filed on behalf of S.L. Development and Construction Co by Kornpat Paiboonsirikul, a construction engineer, with Pol Lt-Col Thawal Mangkhang, the DSI's special cases specialist.

Mr Kornpat said S.L. Development and Construction was subcontracted by PCC on July 8, 2011 to build one large police station and four small ones. The median price set for the large station was 19.2  million baht and for the small ones between 5.5 million and 5.8 million baht.

    @jwatch, d9.

    I agree. If the subcontractor wins the case, it could really change the way thai business works. And I think thai companies can permanently forget to do any business with foreign companies, at least if done under thai law.

    I plan to sue my boss tomorrow. My contract for the last several years says x baht, but I realise now I should have had twice that all along!

    Why the " Thorough Study of the plan " was done after the sub-contractor was made and accepted.

    'But from thorough examination of the blueprints by engineers, the company found that the large station would cost 26 million baht, not 19.2 million baht,'Mr Kornpat said S.L. Development and Construction was subcontracted by PCC on July 8, 2011.'

    His company just examine the blueprints now?
