The source said Prayut had already informed Sansern about his new post.
Prayut was reportedly pleased with the performance so far of Sansern and Maj Werachon Sukhonthapatipak as deputy government spokesmen, thus the PM personally appointed Sansern as government spokesman. Meanwhile, General Wilart Arunsri, secretary-general for the PM who is currently government spokesman, will work in the secretary-general’s role solely.
Sansern, however, refused to say anything until everything is cleared. He said he was not certain yet which post he would be appointed to, as he has to wait for the PM’s order. He asked the media to give him some privacy while he recovers from illness.
