Srettha Thavisin, the deputy finance secretary, pleaded with Krisada Chinavicharana to reevaluate his resignation on Wednesday in an immediate visit from Prime Minister.

Mr. Srettha claimed to have called Mr. Krisada prior to the resignation letter so that the disgruntled secretary could consider the decision for a second time.

According to reports, Mr. Krisada apparently made the decision to leave because he believed he was unsatisfied with Pichai Chunhavajira’s recently appointed responsibilities.

The Public Debt Management Office is apparently headed by Mr. Krisada, a former government continuous director.

His appointment in the Pheu Thai-led coalition was made within the United Thai Nation Party’s social allotment last year.

Mr Krisada is not the only minister to experience slighted&nbsp, in the new cabinet reshuffle. Parnpree Bahiddha-Nukara, the deputy prime minister, resigned last year due to his disappointment over losing the place he also held.
