Thai PBS has made its nightly talk show more interesting by adding five well-known commentators to its line-up, including Nation Multimedia Group (NMG) chairman Suthichai Yoon.

The commentators will take turns in explaining the current local or international political and economic situations to the audience. 
The other four in the line-up are former finance minister Pridiyathorn Devakula, academic on mass communications Somkiart Onwimol, Thammasat University political science lecturer Chalidaporn Songsamphan and chairman of the Thailand Development Research Institute Somkiat Tangkitvanich.
The show’s first episode was aired last night with Suthichai, Somkiart and Pridiyathorn telling the audience what they will be talking about in the next episode, entitled “Exponential Thinking”. 
Suthichai said he will talk about current international events as not everything makes it to the social media. He also called on everybody to express their views via Facebook. 
“I shall be talking about global events related to Thailand and will make them very interesting and fun to follow,” Suthichai promised. 
Pridiyathorn said he will talk about the current economic situation and Thailand’s integration into the Asean Economic Community, while Somkiart said he too will be talking about the AEC. 
Suthichai will be joining the show every Thursday.
