Surin: I was not a Temasek nominee
Surin Upatkoon, the main shareholder in the controversial Kularb Kaew Co, was yesterday charged with a criminal offence for alleged illegal representation of a foreign company under the Foreign Business Act 1999.

Acting police chief Seripisut Temiyavej said that Fairmont Investments Group, based in the British Virgin Islands, would also face criminal charges under the act.
In his testimony given last September, Surin claimed that he had financed his investment in the company with his own money.
He also insisted he was not a nominee of the Singaporean government's investment arm, Temasek Holdings.
