US embassy cable - 05BANGKOK1191

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

 1.  (U)  Political FSN contacted the Royal Thai Navy's 
Personnel Data Center, the Royal Thai Supreme Command's 
Directorate of Joint Personnel, the Ministry of Defense's 
Office of Personnel and the Naval Air Division at Sattahip 
Royal Thai Naval Base.  None of these offices have a record 
of a "Direk Promwichal" who signed the end user document 
outlined in reftel.  Captain Kritsada of the Royal Thai 
Navy's Air Division's Logistics arm notified FSN that "Direk 
Promwichal" is no longer a member of the Royal Thai Navy and 
should not have been authorized to sign an end user 
certificate.  He indicated that Direk Promwichal is now an 
administrator for a company doing business as "Aero Hitech 
Company."  A check of the Thai Ministry of Commerce's 
Department of Business Development's webpage does not/not 
show a listing for "Aero Hitech."
