THAI Announces Board Meeting Results

Travel News Asia Date: 27 December 2001

Today (27 December 2001), Thai Airways International Public Company Limited held a Board of Directors' Meeting, chaired by Mr. Virabongsa Ramangkura, THAI's Chairman, with the following results:

1. Selection of Thai's President

The Board of Directors has agreed to terminate selection of THAI's President, after receipt of a letter from the Permanent-Secretary of the Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare stating that the ministry did not send Ms. Jaemsri Sukchoterat to represent the State Enterprise Labor Relations Committee under the Committee for Nomination of the Selection Committee.

In accordance with the Standard Quality of Directors and State Enterprise Employees Act 2001 (Issue No. 4), the Board of Directors concluded that the composition of the selection committee was incomplete and that the search for THAI's President should be reopened. In order to speed up the process of appointing a new THAI President, the Board must appoint a new Selection Committee after which the committee must select THAI's President within 30 days.

The existing candidates remain qualified as applicants to the post.
