Pakorn tipped amid Borwornsak uncertaintyVeteran legal scholar Borwornsak Uwanno arrives at Government House on Feb 3. Notably absent from the party’s quota is Mr Borwornsak, who had previously been expected to retain the legal affairs deputy premiership. Mr Anutin was said to have thanked him for his service in the previous government and offered him another senior position, which Mr Borwornsak reportedly declined, citing his age. Attention has now shifted to Mr Pakorn, a senior legal technocrat widely respected in government circles. Mr Pakorn has held several high-profile administrative posts, including secretary-general of the Office of the Public Sector Development Commission.
