Wang Kanai ordered to pay up The Wang Kanai Group must pay for sugar cane delivered by farmers within 15 days. If not, the Cane and Sugar Board will fine the group, says board chairman Dumri Sukhothanang. Wang Kanai has been delaying payments to sugar-cane farmers, because the group has faced liquidity problems for few weeks. The group is now negotiating with its creditors, including Bangkok Bank and Siam City Bank, for a loan with which to pay the sugar-cane farmers. Dumri said if the company could not pay the farmers within 15 days, the board would fine the group in accordance with the Cane and Sugar Law, which mandates criminal and civil penalties.
