The former deputy director fo the Internal Security Operations Command, Gen Panlop Pinmanee, a member of the opposition Puea Thai Party, earlier said Gen Chavalit would lead the anti-government group.
"I think it's a misunderstanding. Gen Panlop may want me to help out and be part of the mass of people who love this country," Gen Chavalit said.
He said the red-shirts were not trying to create their own army, they were just gathering more supporters.
"I do not want to be a red-shirt leader since they already have people to lead them," Gen Chavalit said.
He said he had not spoken to Gen Panlop yet.

"The reason I returned to politics is to bring about peace in the country and I don't believe that former premier Thaksin Shinawatra would like me to be the supreme commander of the people's army," the political veteran said.
Fugitive ousted prime minister Thaksin posted a message on his webpage, saying people should not be panicked by the rumours of unrest.
He said army specialist and red-shirt supporter Maj-Gen Khattiya Sawasdipol, known as Seh Daeng, just wanted to warn the Democrat-led government not to suppress the people.
The people would use the truth to fight the government by peaceful means, he added.

Small Business owners are largely forgotten. Thats why I only focus on them. I have experience several members of my family file bankruptcy due to small business failures. I also I suffered through 2 destroyed businesses due to failure however, in my failings I have learned some of the secrets to success. (Who can say they know it all?)
