yellowboat Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 "However, Mr Chatchai was only candidate who are qualified for the position, therefore, the Supreme Court has to begin the selection procedure again to invite candidates for the remaining position." The only man in all of Thailand that qualifies ? Those must be some pretty steep qualifications. Would think that being able to walk and chew gum at the same time would have been enough.
