Thai court orders ex-PM Yingluck Shinawatra to pay $304M for a failed rice subsidy program.
Thai court orders former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra to pay over $304 million in damages for a failed rice subsidy program from a decade ago.
The program aimed to support farmers by buying rice at above-market prices but resulted in significant financial losses.
Yingluck, who fled the country in 2017 to avoid jail, was found guilty of negligence and sentenced to five years in prison in absentia.
The court reduced the initial compensation from $1.07 billion to $304 million.
Yingluck's legal team plans to request a retrial.
