PP candidate says 'flawed' app points to SSO graftListen to this articleRukchanok Srinork, a party-list MP candidate from the People's Party (PP), has accused the Social Security Office (SSO) of corruption and mismanagement in connection with the 850-million-baht SSO+ web application, saying the flawed project has left insured persons unable to access their benefits. Her remarks come amid mounting criticism of the SSO+ app, which has repeatedly been taken offline for "maintenance". That case took nearly two decades to conclude, with the former SSO secretary-general ultimately sentenced to prison by the Court of Appeal in 2023. She said the 850-million-baht SSO+ web app project showed signs of corruption from the bidding stage onward, resulting in an outdated system that cannot function as intended. Insured persons paid a high price for a system that is unusable in practice, forcing the SSO to shut it down and delaying benefit disbursements, she claimed.
