In a bid to give the impression that the drama over the ownership of the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC) will have a happy ending, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has set up a six-member committee to select the BACC's management.
They are due to select 12 new members for the BACC board in the next two weeks.
But going through the list of candidates, I, like many readers, could not help but wonder what they will do in the new role. The committee comprises one retired navy commander, two army generals and two retired BMA officials. Only one member is a professional artist.
