A day after Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha was suspended from his prime ministerial duties, Paiboon Nititawan, deputy leader of the ruling Palang Pracharath Party, was handing out a biography on Gen Prawit Wongsuwon, now acting PM, to reporters.
The 217-page book Pi Pom, Pi Yai, Pi Chai Tee San Dee (Brother Pom, Our Benevolent Brother) charts the trajectory of the biggest brother of the "Three Por" which also comprises Gen Prayut and Gen Anupong Paojinda, the interior minister.
The biography provides little detail about its production. Nothing about who wrote and edited it. Yet, it comes out at a surprising timeline -- the day when Gen Prawit assumed the position of acting prime minister.
