Thai airports operator Airports of Thailand (AOT) is again searching for a new president, following the resignation of incumbent Chana U-sathaporn.
AOT says in a statement to the Stock Exchange of Thailand
that Chana’s resignation will take effect from 5 August. It says he
resigned for health reasons, although local media reports quote sources
as saying he resigned due to political pressure.
The publicly traded, government-controlled operator of the country’s
major airports says Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport general manager
Serirat Prasutanond will be acting president until a new president is
appointed.
Chana was named AOT’s president in September last year, replacing
Chotisak Asapaviriya who had resigned months earlier amid troubles at Suvarnabhumi Airport`.
A long-serving Thai Air Force official, Chana became president just
months before an elected government took power in Thailand to replace a
government that was appointed by the military following a coup in 2006.

Welcome to Pattaya, named after the strong
winds which come from the South West at the beginning of every rainy
season. Pattaya, up until 40 years ago was just a sleepy fishing
village, the Vietnam war changed this. America sent soldiers to build
the air base at U Tapao (40km sout of Pattaya) and many of these took
to spending their leisure time and money in Pattaya. Today Pattaya is
Thailand's premier beach resort and attracts annually more than a
million tourists from all over the world. Pattaya provides high
standard hotels, restaurants, sports, entertainment and shopping
facilities. The resort is Thailand's most important diving center and
the east coast is also a paradise for golfers and an ideal place to
learn kiteboarding.
Is there a minimum number of times that Peter Malhotra must be named in
each edition? In last weeks newspaper I was surpised to read an
irrelevant piece about about a Bangkok hotel until... of course Peter
Malhotra was in attendance which somehow makes it a news item for the
people of Pattaya. We are also to learn that a Russian Ship is docked
in at Sattahip and met by ...Peter Malhotra (assisted by the Russian
consul ) in the previous newspaper we are given a lecture on the
subject of a youth sailing regatta -and of course a nice picture of
"guess who" 'congratulating ' them .Why not get rid of the pretence and
just have the 'Malhotra Diary' where we can all learn about the weekly
adventures of Pattaya's Grand Vizier of verbosity.
