The Thai Sang Thai Party on Wednesday officially introduced Sita Divari as its candidate for Bangkok governor, hoping he can pull off the second election upset of his political career.
Sqn Ldr Sita vowed to fight hard, as he had done when he first stood in the general election in 2000.
He left the air force, where was an F-5 pilot, to enter politics as a candidate for then-Thai Rak Thai party in Klong Toey constituency. He beat his Democrat rival, a three-time MP for the constituency, even though he was seen as a rank outsider.
