The National Anti-Corruption Commission reached a unanimous resolution during its meeting on August 19, 2026, approving the appointment of Mr. Nithiphan Prachuapเหมาะ, previously the Deputy Secretary-General, to the position of Secretary-General.
This appointment is made to fill the vacancy left by Mr. Surapong Inthathaworn, the former Secretary-General, who is scheduled to retire from government service later this year following the completion of his term.
The position of NACC Secretary-General serves as the top administrative engine driving anti-corruption investigations and internal operations, making the rigorous recruitment process crucial for maintaining institutional continuity.
Previously, the NACC office issued an official announcement on June 16, 2026, establishing a selection committee to open applications for qualified candidates interested in leading the agency's administrative branch.
The recruitment drive attracted a total of two applicants: Mr. Nithiphan Prachuapเหมาะ and Police Lieutenant Colonel Chatchanop Phadungkan. Both candidates underwent interviews and presented their strategic visions to the committee on August 11, 2026, culminating in Mr. Nithiphan securing the unanimous backing.
