Financial Disclosure Review: Chalong Riewrang's 2019 Asset Declaration
Khaosod Online revisits the 2019 asset and liability declaration of former Nonthaburi MP Chalong Riewrang, filed during his tenure as the spouse of then-MP Charoen Riewrang.
Khaosod Online has revisited public records from the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) regarding the financial disclosure of Chalong Riewrang, a former Member of Parliament for Nonthaburi. The report highlights a declaration filed in 2019, submitted in his capacity as the spouse of Charoen Riewrang, who served as a Palang Pracharath Party MP for Nonthaburi District 1.
According to the 2019 NACC filing, Chalong reported total assets valued at approximately 24.95 million Thai Baht. This figure included 188,849 Baht in bank deposits, a motorcycle valued at 5,000 Baht, and other assets—defined as items valued at 200,000 Baht or more—totaling 24.76 million Baht. Simultaneously, the declaration recorded liabilities amounting to 88 million Baht.
For residents and expatriates, such disclosures are part of the standard transparency requirements for political figures in Thailand. While this report focuses on historical data from 2019, it serves as a reminder of the public nature of financial records for those holding or associated with public office. It is important to note that the couple is now divorced, and this information reflects a specific point in time. As this is a retrospective look at a past filing, no new legal actions or current financial status updates have been reported in connection with this disclosure.
