Thailand had stockpiled nearly 2.1 million tonnes of rice against any shortcomings in future rice harvests, however Thai authorities were at a loss to explain how a 10% of the supply vanished without a trace from government warehouses. With fragrant rice selling at 135 baht a kilo, this loss has been calculated at 3.2 billion baht or $137 million probably making this the biggest thefts of all time as well as the one taking the most time, since the thieves would need to make over 200,000 trips in a Isuzu pick-up to haul away that much rice.
And no one noticed anything at the government warehouses.
Must have been those pesky field rats.
PM Samak also stated that there’s plenty more rice where that went.
