Profiled in November's issue of Alpha Southeast Asia

BANGKOK, Nov. 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Alpha Southeast Asia published in its November issue a list of the most independent banking, investment and corporate board-level executives in the private sector across the ASEAN region.

Following an intensive eight-month evaluation period that consisted of an internal review of just over 60 key personalities from across the region, as well as a wide-ranging peer survey, a final shortlist of banking and corporate dynamos was whittled down to the Top 25 Most Influential People in Southeast Asia.

The list includes individuals who are likely to have a high impact on the next decade's financial markets and yield a major influence through their opinions, actions and business decisions. Profiles allude to a more personal side and illustrate how these extraordinary individuals, are in fact not very different from the people they lead. Many are golf enthusiasts; one is a frustrated architect, while another is a tap dancer, and yet another harboured aspirations to join the priesthood.

This cover-story feature gives readers an insight to their most admired organisation, most essential read, favourite weblink, most respected journalist, important recommended book and post retirement plans.

"We have selected individuals who we think can spark off a chain reaction, shape events that will put their mark on history, or stand the testament of time," said Siddiq Bazarwala, Publisher, Alpha Southeast Asia.

Four Power-Players from Thailand on the Top 25 List:

  • Dr. Pailin Chuchottaworn, President and CEO of PTT for Most Influential Board-Level Executives in Southeast Asia
  • Tevin Vongvanich, President and CEO of PTTEP for Most Influential Board-Level Executives in Southeast Asia
  • Kannikar Chalitaporn, President, Siam Commercial Bank for Most Powerful Woman & Most Influential Board-Level Executives in Southeast Asia
  • Songpol Chevapanyaroj, Executive Vice President, Head - Corporate and SME Products Division, KASIKORNBANK for Leading & Corporate Commercial Bankers in Southeast Asia
