KCSG has just learned that Governor Huntsman will resign as governor of Utah and accept a position in the Obama administration as U.S. Ambassador to the People's Republic of China.

The role of ambassador will not be a new one for Huntsman, as he has served in the position before. He was an ambassador to Singapore during the administration of President George H.W. Bush, from 1992 to 1993. He has also worked as a deputy trade representative.
The White House is expected to make the official acceptance Saturday.
