Abstract
OfficeoftheNACC

Section 157 of the Criminal Code is Thailands past and present control
systemoftheexerciseofstatepower.Itdefinestheoffenseofpublicofficialsin
broad terms, covering those improper actions or inactions in performing their
official duty with the intent to cause damage to other persons or corruptly
perform or refrain from performing their duty. The special purpose of Section
157 is to prevent and suppress those undesired conducts in official circles in
general, and has been continuously used since the enforcement of the criminal
law of the Rattanakosin era of 127 without discriminating which improper
conductsshouldbesubjecttothecontrolofcriminalmeasure.

Inpractice,Section157hasbeenusedtocontroltheimproperconducts
ofpublicofficialsbeyondthoseofcorruptioncases.Thepracticecontributesto
the expansion of the National AntiCorruption Commission (NACC) scope of
inspection beyond that of corruption matter, which is not in accordance to the
constitutional will. The practice not only directly affects the working system of
the NACC itself, but it also extends its enforcement broadly to include the
improperly use of decisions of the state officials. This enlargement has caused

Coupled with the idea of amending Section 157, it is also about time to
amend other related laws which impose criminal offences on persons who are
notpublicofficials,namelySection123/1ofthe1999OrganicLawonCorruption

Background

Overthepastseveralyears,Thailandhasundergonealargescalereformationofits
legal system, especially the promulgation of peoples constitution of 1997. With such
reforms, numerous organic and special laws have been enacted. Consequently, new
independent control mechanisms of state power in various specialized fields have been
instituted,includingtheconstitutioncourt,theadministrativecourts,theombudsmen,the
human rights commission, the auditor commission, the election commission, etc.1 Under
the newlegalcondition andenvironment, thereis aseriousquestionto be asked,i.e., Is
Section157ofthePenalCodestillrelevantandpractical?Sincethearticlestipulatesthat:

Whoever,beinganofficial,wrongfullyexercisesordoesnotexerciseanyofhis
functions to the injury of any person, or dishonestly exercises or omits to
exerciseanyofhisfunctions,shallbepunishedwithimprisonmentofonetoten

From the provision, we see that Section 157 of the Penal Code of the Kingdom of
Thailandhasdefinedthemalfeasanceinofficeinaverybroadway.Itcanalsobeviewedas

definitionofaspecificcrime,itcanalsobejudgedthattheoffenseisguiltyunderSection
157. But it is the discretion of the court of justice to give a verdict on a specific kind of
offense without giving an additional verdict on the general scope of Section 157.3 As a

UponstudyingSection157ofthePenalCode,itispossibletoidentifytheproblems
in terms of principles and practices. In addition, a comparative study of the article with
thoseofforeigncountriesleadsustofindoutthedifferencesandtheappropriatemethods
tosolvetheproblem.

1.Problemsintermsofprinciples

The obscurity of Section 157 in terms of enforcement is obvious since individual


persons can arbitrarily bring up Section 157 as a justification to make ways for an
extensive inspection of all kinds of governmental works. It does not matter whether the
issue to the usual business of the administrative bureaucracy, the policy issued under
politiciansresponsibility,orthejudicialworkofjudges.Itisneitherlimitedtoactionnor
inaction with corrupt intention, or of being induced by corrupt reasoning of the
practitioner, or of involving problems that fall within the scope of discretion of public
officials.Itseemsthatthearticlecaninclusivelyapplytoalltypesofoffensescommittedby
anystateofficials.

In addition, according to a number of the Supreme Court verdicts, it can be


ascertainedthatthecourtshavebeeninvariablyveryflexible,adjustingtheapplicationof
the article to the facts of each particular case involved. Superficially, it is a good idea to
havesuchalawthatallowsjudgestodecideindependentlywhatactionconstitutesacrime
or not. It looks as if the Section is an application of law for the purpose of justice and
protectionofpersonalrightsandthepublicinterest.Onthecontrary,thepracticereflects
theproblemthattheuseofSection157asatoolforcontrollingpublicofficialsisnotclear

ofSection157canbeconstruedfromitsconception,itsconceptionasatoolforcontrolling

1.1ThelimitationofSection157intermsofcontrollingconception

Originally Section 157 came from Section 145 of the criminal law of the
Rattanakosin era of 127. The draft was an effort to improve and modernize Thai law to
enableittodealwiththenewlyreformedbureaucracy.Thiswasdonebybringingsimilar

foreignwrittenlawsthatexistedintothusconsiderationtodeterminethecriminaloffences
thatcouldbecommittedbypublicofficials.Thementionedforeignwrittenlawscamefrom
European and some Asian countries. The aim was fill loopholes in the law and to make
publicofficialswhoperformedtheirdutyillegallyguiltyofsuchactions.Thiswasdoneby
adoptingtheItalianPenalCodewhichprescribedallillegitimateactsofpublicofficialsas
anoffensewhichthegovernmentcouldputtotrialandinflictpunishmentonthem.6

InthebeginningthecriminallawoftheRattanakosineraof127broadlyprescribed
the offensive actions and inactions of the public officials that were considered as wrong
doing.Theaimwastoallowthecourtofjusticetodecidewhatactionswereconstitutedas
offensiveandshouldbeblamedandpunishedfordamagetothepeople,duetothemisuse
of authority. This was the prototype for making general provisions for offensive acts. An
amendmentwaslateraddedtoincludetheactionsandinactionsofpublicofficialsonduty
with the intention of corruption. This was extended to Section 157 of the present Penal
Code.7

Thesystemofcontrollingpublicofficialsatthetimeitwasintroducedtherewasno
separation of official functions. Namely there were provisions prescribing the wrong
doings of state officials with no discrimination of what jurisdiction, were under the
executive, legislative or judicial branches. All came under one roof, with no process for
using different measures for different branches or type of government organization or
officials. The measures covered constitutional, executive, administrative, professional, or
criminal matters, which may at the same time, improve the efficiency of state
administration,andnotcreatetoomuchdisturbancetostatemechanisms.8

Uponthestudyoftheprincipleofjusticemanagement,consideringtheaimoflaw
enforcement is to make it both fair and efficient, it is necessary to be careful of the
differencesinalawsobjectives,mechanismsofcontrolandresponsibility.9Forinstance,
the objective of the criminal control measure is to control the behavior of the people
involved,includingpublic officials. Its purposeisto protectsocietyfrom disturbances, to

constitutionseesthatitshouldbelefttotheresponsibilityoftheindependentspecialized

The states control and inspection measures for officials has its own rules and
regulations which specify the procedures and organizations responsible for carrying out
theinvestigationoffactsandarebasedondifferentsetsoflaws.Especiallycountriesthat
resort to a written or civil law system, there is a separation of the use of civil law and
criminal law as private laws. This separation is installed within the law system and law

1.2ThelimitationofSection157intermsofconstitutionality

Broadlyprescribingcriminaloffensesandallowingthecourtsofjusticetousetheir
discretion to decide which category of actions constitute a criminal offense is equal to
making laws in the fashion of the common law system. In such a system not only is the
legislative branch vested with power to make written laws of statutory offenses, but the
courts of justice also possess the capacity to make such laws through offering court
verdictswhichsetprecedentsforfuturecases.11Thisincludescommonlawoffenses.Inthe
commonlawcountries,therightofboththelegislatureandthecourtsofjusticetoperform
the lawmaking function is not prohibited. In England and some other common law
countries,theyevenrecognizethatthecourtshavethesamelegitimatesasthelegislature

personshallnotbeofgreaterseveritythanthatprovidedbylawinforceatthe

IntheopinionofsomelawyerswhoseeThailandaschoosingtofollowthecivillaw
system, Section 157, especially the phrase that prescribes the action or inaction of the
government official on duty who unlawfully intended to create damage to anyone else,
provestobeactofcontradictiontotheprincipleofclearcutanddefinitedefinitionsinthe
criminal law. The article not only threatens the rights and liberty of the people, but also
contradictstheprincipleofnoguilt,nopunishment,withoutlaws.

2.ImpactonthefunctioningoftheNACC

InenforcingSection157,TheNACChastwomajorpointstoconsider:oneiswhat
theconstitutionalintends,andtheotherishowtomaketheinspectiontasksefficient.

2.1TheconstitutionalroleoftheNACC

The establishment of the NACC was a product of the 1997 Constitution of the
Kingdom of Thailand and the subsequent 1999 Organic Law on the Prevention and
SuppressionofCorruption.ThelawsshowedThailandseffortstostrengthenitscapability
todeal with corruption in the political and bureaucratic circles. In the past, the task was
vested to the 1975 Act of Prevention and Suppression of Corruption and Misconducts in
GovernmentalCircles.ItsetuptheCounterCorruptionCommission(CCC)vestedwiththe
power to investigate charges and complaints on state officials both within the scope of
criminal offenses as stipulate in the penal code and other criminal laws, related to their
official duty and disciplinary misconduct. That is to say, its authority covered corruption
cases, as wellas disciplinary misconduct ofstate personnel.Though thecommission was
nothingtodowithcorruptioncharges,thecommissionstillhadpowertoindictonprima
facie cases of misconducts. The authority to investigate disciplinary issues was later
removedfromthenewNACCinanattempttoincreaseitsefficiencyindealingwithmore
seriouscorruptioncases.However,theNACCisstilldeeplyinvolvedintheformerscopeof
the CCCs functions, namely the investigation of cases of criminal, corruption and

disciplinarymisconductinoffice.Consequently,theNACCisstillheavilyoverwhelmedwith
allkindsofcases.13

2.2Efficiencyasinspectiontarget

Accordingtothenewlaw,theNACCslegitimateassignmentistocurbcorruptionin
officeofstateofficials,especiallypoliticiansandhighrankingstateofficialswiththestatus
ofdivisiondirectororequivalent.Themissionstatementindicatestheresponsibilityofthe
NACC is to exclusively investigate corruption offenses, more than to extend its hand into
othercriminalormisconductinofficecases.SincethemissionoftheNACCanditsworkis
confinedtocorruptioncasesinoffice,Section157isnotconsistentwiththenewroleofthe
NACC.ThisisbecauseSection157coversawiderrangeofoffensesthancorruptionofstate
officials. Harmful intention to other people is not necessary always involve corruption
offenses. Moreover, it can be enlarged to cover other wrongdoings by the organization
concerned.Therefore,oneeffectivewaytodealwithcorruptioncasesistoabolishSection
157 and makes new laws that indicate clearly what specific kinds of behavior are
consideredcorruptioninoffice.

Infact,misconductinofficecanbedealtwithbymanyregulatorymeasures.There
are political, administrative, criminal, disciplinary measures, which have both laws and
organizationstoproperlytakecareof.Itis,therefore,notappropriatetouseSection157,
whichisageneralprovisioncoveringvarietyofoffenses,includingmisconductinoffice.It
makes the division of work go astray. It is also an encroachment into other regulatory
organizationsresponsibility.Itisespeciallyaninterferenceintothepoliticaldiscretionof
the government, as well as the courts. This is clearly a contradiction to the principle of
separation of powers and consequently, a threat to the peoples rights and liberty. The
NACC, which is an independent organ of the constitution, should be an organization
focusedoncorruptioninspectionofpoliticiansandhighrankingstateofficials.Besides,it
should be aware of its constitutional role of enforcing the law effectively and in the line
with the constitution, curbing corruption in government circles with efficiency and
economy.

aremeasuresthatneedtobetakentomakeitmoreeffectiveandefficiency.

(1) Separating cases not involving corruption from the consideration of the
NACC

In investigating complaints, it should decide whether the complaints involve


corruptionofstateofficials.Iftheydonotinvolvecorruptionoffenses,theNACCshouldnot
receivethecasesintoitsinvestigationprocess.TheNACCshouldtheninformthecompliant
party about its decision, or refer the matter to a relevant organization. The initial
examinationofcomplaintsshouldseewhethertherearereasonablegroundstoprosecute
andcontinuetheinvestigation.Ifthefirstexaminationfindsthatthecasedoesnotcontain
enoughevidence,itshouldberejected.

(2)Consideringanddecidingprimafaciecorruptionevidences

The factfinding responsibility of the NACC should concentrate on actions or


behaviorthatinvolvedcorruptionasstipulatedinthepenalcodeorothercriminallaws.At
investigating level, the responsibility of the subcommission, with the assistance of the
NACC,istoinvestigatefactsandcollectevidencesimilartoacriminalinvestigationofficer
in the Code of Criminal Procedure. By doing this, they have to inform the accused party
abouttheaccusationbroughtagainstthem.Theyhavetogivetheaccusedanopportunity
toacquiretherighttodefense,andtobringlawyersortrustedpersonstotakepartinthe
investigation process. In case there is not enough evidence, the subcommission should
submitthecasetotheNACCforacquitral.Iftheyfindthatitisonlyacaseofmisconductin

the decision in place of the accuseds supervisor. If they find the case has grounds for a
corruptioncase,theyshouldreferthecasetoGeneralProsecutortoprosecutethecasein
courts.

3.2ProposalonamendingSection157andrelatedlaws

The Thai law system is that of the civil law system. It adheres to written laws
especially the infliction of criminal punishment should be strictly subjected to the
provisionsoftheconstitution.Section39ofthe2007Constitution,inthesameprovisionas
Section2ofthePenalCode,guaranteestheprincipleofclearcutanddefinitelaw,whichis
consistent with the important principle of nullum crimen, nulla poena sine lege. This
principle contradicts Section 157 which is a general inclusive provision of offenses, and
breachesthepeoplesrightsandliberty.

Intermsofhistory,Section157haditsoriginfromSection145ofthecriminallawof
theRattanakosineraof127.Thelatercamefromthecommonlawsystem,whichaimsto
setuplimitationsonpublicofficialsexerciseoftheirpowerbyusingabroadwording.This
wording later was changed with the aim of causing damage to other people in Section
157.Thebroadnessoftheprovisionwasemployedasatooltocontrolpublicofficials,in
matters as broad as political discretion, administrative judgments, or the practice of the
courts.Thepracticeproducesadverseeffectstotheadministrationofgovernment,andthe
controlsystemingeneral.

(1)ProposalonamendingSection157

ToresolvetheproblemoftheambiguityofSection157duetotheindefinitescopeof
criminaloffensesthelawcovers,is,therefore,necessarytoamendthearticletomakeits

(27)

provisionclearcutintermsofthepersonsandactionsinwhichthelawwantstoimposea
sanctionon.Onthismatter,theresearcherwouldliketoofferatwostepapproach:thefirst
stepisamethodtoamendthearticle;thesecondstepisamethodtoremovethearticle.

1) The method toamend Section 157.Since a largenumber of peoplestill see the


needforhavingageneralprovisiontopunishofficialswhoperformtheirdutyunlawfully,
abruptlyabolishthearticlewillalsocreateproblem,researcherproposesthat,inthefirst
step, some amendment to the article should be done to make it clearer. Two points that
shouldbedealtwithare:

(A) Prescribe the actions or inactions in the administrative act that constitutes an
offenseunderSection157.Theotheractssuchasthoseofjusticeacts,actsofgovernment,
should not be contained in the article. This can be done by adding administrative into
Section157rightafterthewordduty.

(B)AddmorecomponentsintoSection157tomakeitmoreclearcutanddefinite.
This can be done by adopted the concept of Section 145 of the criminal law of the
Rattanakosin era of 127 which separate personal matters from those of the public. The
amendmentcanbemadebyaddingthephrasebadfaiththatcauseddamagetoanyone.
ThiswillhelpclarifythatpublicofficialswhowillbeguiltyunderSection157willinvolve
only those persons who bring personal matters into their duty. In this case, the two
personalmattersarecorruptionandbadfaiththatcausedamagetoanyone.Therefore,
misconduct in office that does not involve the two categories should not constitute an
offenseofSection157.

2) The Method to remove Section 157. According to the principle of clearcut and
definite law and the principle of nullum crimen, nulla poena sine lege, this provision is
defectiveinthesensethatitprovidesabroadscopeofoffenses,butdoesnotprovidethe
appropriate safeguard for public officials who execute their duty honesty. By removing
Section157,thelegislationmaycreateasystemsimilartothatofFrance,JapanandUSA,
wherespecifiableoffensesareconsideredacorruptmisdeed.Thebenefitofthissolutionis
that it frees the NACC to deal with corruption only and relegates the investigation of
misconductinofficetotheStateServiceCommissionortheAdministrativeCourt.

(2)Proposalonamendingrelatedlaws

Coupled with the idea of amending Section 157 of the Penal Code, it is also about
timetoamendotherrelatedlawswhichimposecriminaloffensesonstatepersonnelwho
are not public officials according to the Penal Code, namely Section 123/1 of the 1999
OrganicLawonCorruptionPreventionandSuppressionamendedbyAmendmentNo.2of
2011,aswellasSection11ofthe1959ActonLiabilityofOfficialsofStateOrganizationsor
Agencies.

The element of culpability must be of such a degree that the misconduct impugned is calculated to injure the public
interest so as to call for condemnation and punishment. The motive of the public officer is irrelevant and the
consequences of the breach must be more than trivial. In R v Dytham [1979] QB 722, 727-728; the Attorney-Generals

Art. 161. Public servant taking a gratification, other than legal remuneration, in respect of an official act
Whoever, being or expecting to be a public servant, accepts or obtains, or agrees to accept or attempts to obtain, from
any person, for himself or for any other person, any gratification whatever, other than legal remuneration, as a motive or
reward for doing or forbearing to do any official act, or for showing or forbearing to show, in the exercise of his official
functions, favour or disfavour to any person, or for rendering or attempting to render any service or disservice to any

person, with the Government, or with any Member of Parliament or the Cabinet, or with any public servant, as such, shall
be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to 3 years, or with fine, or with both.
Explanations.Expecting to be a public servant. If a person not expecting to be in office obtains a gratification by
deceiving others into a belief that he is about to be in office, and that he will then serve them, he may be guilty of
cheating, but he is not guilty of the offence defined in this section.
Gratification The word gratification is not restricted to pecuniary gratifications, or to gratifications estimable in
money.
Legal remuneration The words legal remuneration are not restricted to remuneration which a public servant can
lawfully demand, but include all remuneration which he is permitted by law to accept.
"A motive or reward for doing". A person who receives a gratification as a motive for doing what he does not intend to
do, or as a reward for doing what he has not done, comes within these words.
121
Art. 162. Taking a gratification in order, by corrupt or illegal means, to influence a public servant.
Whoever accepts or obtains, or agrees to accept or attempts to obtain, from any person, for himself or for any other
person, any gratification whatever, as a motive or reward for inducing, by corrupt or illegal means, any public servant to
do or to forbear to do any official act, or in the exercise of the official functions of such public servant to show favour or
disfavour to any person, or to render or attempt to render any service or disservice to any person, with the Government, or
with any Member of Parliament or the Cabinet, or with any public servant, as such, shall be punished with imprisonment
for a term which may extend to 3 years, or with fine, or with both.
122
Art. 163. Taking a gratification, for the exercise of personal influence with a public servant.
