Jul. 8--Creditors of Thai Petrochemical Industry (TPI) yesterday voted to appoint a new five-person team as the new plan administrator.

But several foreign creditors, including the International Finance Corp, German development bank KfW and Citicorp, abstained from yesterday's vote. Banks holding combined debt claims of around 30 billion baht abstained.

The US Export-Import Bank and other creditors, holding 4.4 billion baht in debt, voted against the appointment.

Creditors accounting for more than 93 percent of those casting votes and representing debt worth 61.4 billion baht, voted to approve the new team appointed by the Finance Ministry as TPI's planner. Banks voting in favour included Bangkok Bank, the largest creditor, Bank of Ayudhya and Krung Thai Bank.

The new planning team is led by Gen Mongkol Ampornpisit, also chairman of Krung Thai Bank, Thanong Bidaya, Aree Wong-araya, Pala Sookawesh and Pakorn Malakul na Ayudhya.

Mr. Pala, a former governor of state oil giant PTT Plc, will be the new TPI chief executive officer, while Mr. Pakorn, a former central bank deputy governor, will serve as chief financial officer.

The Central Bankruptcy Court last month, in a precedent-setting decision, named the Finance Ministry as the new planner to help ease ongoing conflicts between creditors and TPI founder Prachai Leophairatana.
