Auditor General Pisit Leelavachiropas already has "some information" on the trip to Hawaii by Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwon and he can't find any problem with Hawaii-gate. The OAG has to wait for the bill which will be issued by the airline, he said. In this case, there was no scheduled flight to Hawaii, so it was necessary to organise a chartered flight to transport the group, he said. But three military officers, who went earlier to the US to prepare for the trip, were on the return flight to Thailand. He insisted all the passengers went to the US for work, adding it was important to have all those people for the talks.
