Career diplomat Asda Jayanama has been selected as the new chief of the Thai-Cambodian Joint Commission on Demarcation for Land Boundary (JBC).
He replaces soft-spoken diplomat Vasin Teeravechyan, who resigned after political pressure from the nationalist People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD).
"The Foreign Ministry chose Ambassador Asda to take the job and nobody raised any objections," said foreign minister's secretary Chavanond Intarakomalyasut.
