| abstract | - Admiral Sangad Chaloryu (4 March 1915 - 23 November 1980) was a Thai admiral and politician who served as head of the National Administrative Reform Council (NARC), a military junta that ruled Thailand from 1976-1980. As defense minister, Sa-ngad led the coup of October 6, 1976. This coup ousted the elected civilian government of Seni Pramoj. Sa-ngad became chairman of NARC, which appointed royal favorite Tanin Kraivixien as prime minister. The Tanin government instituted sweeping purges of leftists and communists. Sa-ngad was a figurehead and Army Secretary Kriangsak Chomanan was NARC's the most influential figure. NARC staged a second coup in October 1977, this time without the king's consent, and replaced Tanin with Kriangsak.
