There are various factors which will decide upon the outcome.
USA will be a key factor in deciding who will ultimately win the post.
Chances are that Thai Deputy Prime Minister Surakiart Sathirathai might win who seems to be having the support of China and USA.
Frankly speaking, appointment of John Bolton as US ambassador to the U.N. shows how serious or <easy> it considers the U.N.
After Kofi Annan and his son Kojo's alleged involvement in the kick backs from the U.N. food for oil contracts and tacit US support for him by not pushing for his resignation give rise to many questions on the transparency and effectiveness of the U.N. systems. The U.N. is appearing more and more like GOI with its knee jerk reactions to many of the world's problems.
Is U.N. moving towards the same fate of the League of Nations with the coming Iran war !!
