Anchalee Wanich Theppabutr will definitely be appointed to succeed Korbsak Sabhavasu as PM's secretary-general, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva confirmed on Monday.
He said Mrs Anchalee had worked with Mr Korbsak for a long time, so she would be able to maintain continuity of responsibility.Asked about a report that some MPs were opposed to Mrs Anchalee's appointment, Mr Abhisit said he would explain all at a party meeting on Tuesday.
The prime minister confirmed that Mr Korbsak would join the Democrat Party's team preparing for a general election and would not return to a political post.
Mr Korbsak, whose resignation is effective on Jan 1, also said Mrs Anchalee is suitable for the post of secretary-general of the prime minister.

The former deputy prime minister said he based his opinion on his experience working with Mrs Anchalee, who has served as PM's deputy secretary-general.She had a lot of experience and was well suited to be his successor as PM's secretary-general.
On the suggestion that she might not be a good coordinator, Mr Korbsak said this was not necessary. Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban had already been tasked with coordinating with the other parties in the coalition government.
Mr Suthep earlier denied speculation that some MPs in the Democrat Party, including himself, disliked Mrs Anchalee.
He said he had supported Mrs Anchalee for the job even before the prime minister announced her appointment.
The Democrat secretary-general said there was no conflict in the party over Mrs Anchalee's appointment.
Those who spread the rumours of conflict did so with an ill intention to discredit and destroy the image of the Democrat Party, he said.
