Bum Panadda acknowledged that genuine money transfers occurred but were used solely to build the foundation. She affirmed that her signature was forged on a pool villa construction permit in Phuket. She is currently gathering evidence to take legal action and has asked everyone to help locate "Got".
Regarding the controversy over donations to the Doing Good Foundation of Bum Panadda Wongpudi, an actress, host, and beauty queen, there were transfers from both the foundation's and her personal accounts to a contractor. The contractor then claimed that "Got Athip Anantawan," Bum Panadda's husband, ordered transfers of several million baht to his personal account, sparking social media criticism, as previously reported.
On the program "Hone Krasae," during a chat with Bum Panadda, when asked about multiple transfers from the Doing Good Foundation, she explained that she is currently compiling documents and evidence to clarify the figures. Some documents are with Got Athip, whom she is eager to locate now. She said it’s beyond asking him why he did this to her, but one thing she is sure of is that the funds she provided have indeed been used to create a space.
When asked if she herself made the transfers, Bum Panadda replied that she did, but to a company that said the funds were for construction, and the construction actually took place. Asked if that construction was the pool villa, she said no. The land is not hers but belongs to the foundation, and the goal was solely to build the foundation. Regarding the pool villa, she said it was a business Got did jointly with someone named P’Ae; that’s all she knows.
When asked about the pool villa construction permit bearing Bum Panadda’s name, she said her signature was forged. She only recently discovered that her signature was forged as a co-inspector, which confused her because she couldn’t have authorized the construction. Got told her he was in business with a friend.
During the program, they showed the construction permit listing Miss Panadda Wongpudi as the project supervisor.
When asked if Got said he would build but used Bum’s name, she said a friend recently told her that Got owed 1.2 million baht, using her name as a reference. After a dispute, he put the foundation’s sign on the pool villa without permission. She called it outrageous and questioned why the foundation’s name was used for a pool villa. Bum is gathering all evidence and asks everyone to help find Got. Anyone who knows his whereabouts should inform them, and she wants Got to explain what happened.
Asked if money from the foundation was used to build a facility at Khlong 8, Pathum Thani, Bum said Khlong 8 is where the foundation’s building is under construction. She does not know the exact figures or what they include. Asked where the money was spent and to whom, she said sometimes they receive figures covering steel, labor, personnel, and electricity costs, but without detailed breakdowns. The Khlong 8 land is owned by the foundation, and all funds used there belong entirely to the foundation.
Regarding the electricity bill bearing Bum’s name, technician Ae said he requested the electricity meter, while Got provided Bum’s documents. Got would transfer money to Ae, who then paid the electricity bills.
However, it is suspected that Bum Panadda was unaware of the permit request. Bum insists all transferred funds were for the foundation only. Technician Ae confirms Bum visited the pool villa after the structure was underway but does not know what discussions took place between her and her husband beyond that.
