The Thai government's pressure on the Bank of Thailand to lower interest rates has faced a significant setback. The Office of the Council of State has essentially ruled that the formally nominated former Finance Minister Kittiratt Na-Ranong is unsuitable for the chair position. Secretary-General Pakorn Nilprapunt did not directly name Kittiratt in a statement, but he mentioned that 'Mr. K' as an advisor to the Prime Minister implies that he is someone 'who holds a political position,' appointed for political reasons and involved in government administration. Pakorn stated that, as a result, he is not qualified to serve as chair.
