The Declaration of Assets and Liabilities of politicians and public officials is an important tool for preventing and combating corruption. Under the Organic Act on  Anti-Corruption,  B.E.  2542  (1999),  politicians  and  public  officials  are  obliged  to submit an account showing their assets and liabilities and to disclose that account to  the  public.  At  present,  it  has  been  found  that  several  politicians  and  public officials have intentionally failed to submit an account declaring a list of assets and liabilities  or  have  intentionally  elected  to  submit  an  account  declaring  a  list  of assets and liabilities containing false statements or concealing facts that should be reported to the NACC. Further, it has been acknowledged that many of the assets declaration reports have been left unverified by the NACC, thus making the system ineffective.  Therefore,  this  article  presents  the  results  of  the  Declaration  of  Assets and Liabilities system.
 This study  found that  in order  to improve  the  efficiency  and  effectiveness of  the  assets  declaration  system,  Organic  Act  on  Anti-Corruption  should  make  it compulsory  for  all  types  of  public  officials  to  submit  an  account  showing  the particulars  of  their  assets  and  liabilities.  Moreover,  the  system  should  be  changed to verify all doubted accounts in the system and those for positions with a high risk of  conflict  of  interest.  The  deployment  of  information  technology  in  the  asset declaration system, especially for the filing andthe verification processes as well as for  linking  information  from  other  government  agencies  and  private  organizations, should  increase  the  efficacy  of  the  system.  The  disclosure  of  accounts  showing particular assets and liabilities should be required from everyone who is holding a political position and from every public official so that the public is empowered to examine the disclosed information. Following these recommendations will lead to the increased efficiency and effectiveness of the verification system.
