萬國萬佳集團聲明         發布日期:20221102 尊敬的長官及朋友們大家好,     我是萬國萬佳集團(Louis Group)執行長俞伯璋律師，在這跟各位報告一件事情。相信大家都知道，於2019年我肩負著集團賦予的任務，赴泰國曼谷成立國萬泰國法律顧問公司(Louis Consulting Thailand)，並與時任泰國外商協會主席的康樹德(SHU-TEH KANG)同時作為泰國公司股東也協議一起兼任公司董事，並聘請泰籍林增寶律師於泰國律師公會登記作為Louis Consulting Thailand公司主持律師，帶領泰國所有律師團隊一起執行法律業務，主要協助台商處理有關泰國的各項法律事務。     很不幸的，於今年(2022年)初我本人、股東們、與集團的會計師發現康樹德(SHU-TEH KANG)在公司帳務資料交待不清楚，公司多項金流操作未事先經股東會同意，我請求康樹德與其太太李蓉蓉提交自公司2019年開始成立後的銀行存簿原始資料給會計師與股東會查核，康樹德拒不提供，股東們無奈之下要求召開股東會撤換公司董事康樹德。然而，康樹德居然宣稱自己是公司唯一合法董事開始將公司占為己有，不但蓄意不繳納辦公室租金、事務所電話費、各項事務款項及員工執行業務墊付款外，竟然還擅自變動公司營業地址，更直接於2022年9月底資遣公司含主持律師等全部員工，讓國萬泰國法律顧問公司(Louis Consulting Thailand)徹底變成被不具律師資格及法律專業的康樹德所挾持的一空殼公司。     萬國萬佳集團為了對所有客戶負責，遂儘速於2022年10月另成立國萬泰國法律事務所(Louis and Partners)，重新聘請所有泰籍律師團隊繼續執行法律業務服務，承擔原Louis Consulting Thailand留下的案件，確保所有客戶的權益全無損失。而康樹德涉嫌挪用公款及侵占公司資產及違法開除員工的行為，本集團也已同時在台灣及泰國兩地對康樹德提出民刑事告訴。 　　本來這樣的家醜，集團並不想公開讓各位知道，但近日我們發現，康樹德居然利用Louis Consulting Thailand這間空殼公司在台灣欲承接泰國法律案件並發報價單，客戶收到報價單後除了向我們事務所查詢外，亦直接向泰國律師公會查詢並獲泰國律師公會通知並確認Louis Consulting Thailand目前沒有登錄任何合法執業的泰國律師。我們認為，康樹德如果再持續以這樣的模式招攬承接泰國法律案件，將因該公司在無登錄任何合法執業的泰國律師的情形下，極有可能導致不知情的客戶權益受到不利影響，此舉除了可能造成在泰國之台商權益受損外，也會影響本集團(Louis Group)的名譽，更嚴重的是萬一後續有人鬧到泰國律師公會或向泰國政府單位申訴，可能會讓泰國律師公會認為台灣人在亂搞泰國的法律市場，將會大大影響所有在泰台商的名譽以及台泰兩國民之間的互信關係。      因此，萬國萬佳集團決定設立一個泰國訊息查核小組，未來不管是在泰國的台商或是欲往泰國發展的台灣公司，如果收受Louis Consulting Thailand或康樹德或李蓉蓉提交的法律服務報價單或法律服務說明函，只要通知我們訊息查核小組，小組會立即向泰國律師公會確認Louis Consulting Thailand公司是否重新有泰國合法律師登錄執業，這是一項免費的服務，確保所有台商能取得正確及合法的資訊。 <泰國訊息查核小組> 泰國曼谷分部小組成員: 林增寶律師、蔡楚城律師  電話02-275-2235台灣台北分部小組成員: 俞伯璋律師、何明峯律師  電話02-23955598台灣台中分部小組成員: 葉俊宏律師、陳宜姍律師  電話04-37079688 萬國萬佳顧問集團執行長  俞伯璋律師
