Education officials found to have facilitated cheating on assistant-teacher recruitment exams will face both disciplinary and criminal action, Deputy Education Minister Sermsak Pongpanich said Wednesday.

Speaking at a press conference, Sermsak said the scam required the participation of many people, including provincial and central agency officials.

"There is solid evidence," he said, with Department of Special Investigation (DSI) chief Tarit Pengdith by his side.
