Nopadol made it clear that the Council of State does not have the authority to review the employment contract of Saeng Boonmee. Even if the matter is submitted, we will not accept it, pointing out that the issue is concluded with the Election Commission.
At 1:00 p.m. on 18 June 2026 GMT+7, Nopadol Pereruek, Secretary-General of the Council of State, gave an interview at the Government House regarding the employment contract of Saeng Boonmee, Secretary-General of the Election Commission (EC). This came after rumors circulated that the former EC panel had given a failing evaluation, stating that the Council of State has not reviewed this matter. Even if it were presented, we would not accept it because it is outside the Council’s jurisdiction and unrelated to the Council’s responsibilities. The matter is entirely settled with the EC, as it is within their authority. .
