In his distinguished career, Mr. Sanan has held senior military roles, handling significant domestic and international tasks. His experience includes serving as a board officer for the General Border Committee (GBC) between Thailand and Malaysia, working as an intelligence analyst at the Royal Thai Armed Forces Headquarters, and culminating as a senior project officer at the Office of Royal Development Projects Board (ORDPB).
