Yingluck rice scheme 'did hurt nation'

[Flashermac]

The auditor-general has insisted that the Yingluck Shinawatra government's loss-ridden rice-pledging programme caused damage to the country.

Auditor-General Prajuck Boonyoung made the statement after Pheu Thai legal adviser Ruangkrai Leekitwattana said the national financial statement prepared by the Comptroller General's Department (CGD) did not report any losses incurred by the rice-pledging scheme.

The financial report for Sept 30, 2014 and 2015 was examined and verified by the Office of the Auditor-General.
