The Thai Hotels Association (THA) Eastern Chapter has voted unanimously for Chatchawal Supachayanont, the General Manager of Dusit Thani Pattaya as its president for the next two years. The elections took place Wednesday, March 26 at the Napalai Convention Hall of the five-star deluxe hotel. The 59-member hotel association holds its elections every two years. The last one was in March 2006 when Mr. Supachayanont again became its head after having passed the torch on to others for a while. His clear comeback for the position since 2006 has become even more evident when he won by a landslide victory in the recent nomination.
The THA was established more than 40 years ago with the objectives of, among others; promoting hotel enterprises, business and tourism; fostering cooperation and spirit of unity among its members; understanding the complexity of the hotel business but work toward its success; arranging sales promotions, for both local and international arena and extending contributions to different charities in aid of public welfare and national security.
“It is truly a great honor to be re-elected as the president of the THA-Eastern Chapter. I would like to express my appreciation to all THA members for their unending show of trust and support as I embark on a continued journey of leadership to carry on accomplishing the objectives of this association, most especially in promoting the hotel industry that takes pride on good standards and in concurrence with the Government’s policy. All of us at the association will strive to do our very best in order to help and support the country’s hotel and tourism industry,” says Chatchawal Supachayanont.
