The Public Warehouse Organization (PWO) has recently petitioned the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) to investigate misconduct allegedly committed by its former acting chief, resulting in losses worth over a billion baht.

The case involves missing cassava stock weighing around 30,000 tonnes, worth then about 210 million baht. The alleged losses were caused during 2008's cassava-pledging project, with the value of the damage growing to be worth more than a billion baht, according to Kriangsak Pratheepwisarut, the current PWO director.
