BANGKOK, Oct 2 Asia Pulse - Highlights of today's newspapers:

BANGKOK POST:

- Gen Surayud Chulanont, "kicked upstairs" four years ago by deposed prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, was officially named the country's 24th prime minister yesterday, setting as his one-year mission ending conflicts among Thais and the violence in the deep South.

- While the focus at the new Suvarnabhumi Airport has been on reducing inconvenience for passengers, air-freight specialists say their problems are even worse and demand more urgent attention.

- Thailand's economy continues to remain resilient despite the military coup, as political clouds over the country are lifting, according to a regional economist.

- The Stock Exchange of Thailand will propose to the new interim government that state shareholdings in listed state enterprises be reduced to increase free floats and market liquidity.

- Thailand's new interim prime minister Surayud Chulanont made his mark as a highly professional army commander. For the past two years he has served His Majesty the King as a member of the Privy Council.
