A panel of nine anti-corruption commisioners in Thailand were found guilty of corruption recently for awarding themselves illegal extra payments.

“They were guilty of misusing their authority to benefit their own interest, which has caused damage to the National Counter Corruption Commission,” a judge said in reading the hour-long verdict.

However, the court suspended their two-year jail terms, saying their convictions should not overshadow the good work they had done in the past.

Nothing like sending a strong message that corruption with not be tolerated. . .
