Chanyuth Hengtrakul, has been named secretary to
Transport Minister Sukampol Suwannathat.
Chanyuth, a Pattaya-area MP under former Prime
Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, celebrated his latest government
appointment Sept. 10 at his central Pattaya home along with family,
friends and local community leaders.
He said he’d work to bring to fruition projects such
as a high-speed rail line connecting Bangkok and Rayong and an expansion
of Suvarnabhumi International Airport. As a Pattaya resident, he pledged
to advocate projects to benefit the area, including highway and marine
transport.
Chanyuth, 53, CEO of Sophon Cable is a former
president of the Chonburi Council and counsel to the Ministry of Tourism
and Sports. He was elected to represent Chonburi Zone 6 in 2004 and
re-elected to represent Zone 7 in 2006 a few months before Thaksin’s
Thai Rak Thai Party was disbanded after the military coup.
