Chuwit’s TV-show dreams thwarted

Published on Sep 16, 2004


Three weeks after securing more than 300,000 votes in the Bangkok gubernatorial election, Chuwit Kamolvisit yesterday had another surprise when his dream of becoming a television host was scrapped a day before the first show was to be recorded.

Chuwit said he was yesterday notified by Channel 7 executive Surang Prempree that his role as a co-host on new news-talk show “Kui Phao Khon” (At Close Range) had been canned after the programme was ditched.

The show was scheduled to make its premiere on Saturday.

The programme would have been the message-parlour-tycoon-turned-politician’s first shot as a TV host since he expressed a desire to host a news-talk show as a way of complementing his political career.

Chuwit said Surang, who offered him the job two weeks ago, had told him the cancellation was prompted by business reasons.

He was to have co-hosted the show with Channel 7 anchor Phitsanu Nilklad.

Channel 7 executives and the show’s producer, Dara VDO Co Ltd, could not be reached yesterday for comment.

Chuwit said another company had asked him to host a TV show named “Daily Exposure”.


In the whole text, I want to focus on the following:
Quote: Business Reasons

Regarding the All-Season's Place canceling Khun Ekkayuth's press release, suspiciously the Government is hosting an forum on which would be chaired by the PM in the same conveniently a few weeks time from now at the same venue. Sounds sound business reason to me. Notice the analogy :)
