Sukumpol denies PTP leader rumour

Defence Minister Sukumpol Suwanatat has denied a report that he has been shortlisted to take over as Pheu Thai Party leader.

ACM Sukumpol said the speculation was unfounded and he had not even been approached to take on the job. ACM Sukumpol also said he lacks the needed experience and there are more suitable candidates than him. 

The new Pheu Thai leader will be selected by the party’s executive committee itself, he said.

    'ACM Sukumpol also said he lacks the needed experience and there are more suitable candidates than him'.

    More than likely he will be the new leader of Thaksin/PTP. He has been making the news frequently for whatever absurd Thaksin supporting reason.

    aussie #1, Not that I know of, but he has the five star crony trump card, and that is also very powerful.

    Does he have the "relative" criteria necessary ?
