Bid for post?

By The Nation
Published on July 19, 2008

The southern ceasefire video presented by Ruam Jai Thai Chart Pattana Party leader Chettha Thanajaro on Thursday may have been a bid by an aide to highlight his profile so he would be put in charge of national security in the upcoming Cabinet reshuffle, a party source said yesterday.



As party leader and part of the ruling coalition, Chettha is disappointed not to have got any ministerial portfolio so far, the source said.

One of the retired general's former military subordinates may have been behind the move and succeeded in flying him to Germany last month for the purpose, along with former Senate deputy speaker Suthon Chaleekrua and former intelligence chief General Waipot Srinuan, the source added.
