Yesterday's edition of the Bangkok Post carried a front-page article with the headline "Anand spurns advisory council".
The Bangkok Post would like to clarify that both the headline and statements attributed to former prime minister Anand Panyarachun in the article are erroneous and totally groundless.
Mr Anand confirmed that he has never spoken to any Bangkok Post reporter about the matter.
The Bangkok Post regrets the error and apologises for any inconvenience or negative repercussions caused by the article upon Mr Anand and the government.
