He probably does... and he has known from an early age that wealth buys power. His greedy actions make that plain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there are richer than him, and that many times. his party won the election, yet was not allowed to form government, so those 10 richer than him do have much more combined power, than him. now, after swearing of the government, the king is the head of state - that's according to new constitution What ate you babbling about?

Sadly that is true I wonder what Thailand 2019 would look like if he was still pm Heaven on earth or hell on earth a la Khmer rouge from the north to Bangkok. Thankfully we wil never know.

He is solely interested in the well being of all Thai people - how could even think for one minute it is about power and ego. The two are not mutually exclusive. Nobody said hes a saint.....just the Democratically elected leader of a country with 25 million people repeatedly voting for him and his party since 1991. Only a military take over and the introduction of totalitarian style laws has kept him out of legal power.....and the people in debt, fear and poverty.

Thankfully we wil never know. Silly. The KR were a communist ideological driven totalitarian state who share more commonalities with the current anti democratic military regime. Taksin was a Democratically elected politician unlike any of the current ruling elite. I will never forget the barbarism of the extreme right wing yellow shirt movenent and the institutions they hid behind. Its easy. One person one vote. Separation of Powers and , in any country, the absolute rule that the military are forbidden from political intervention. To use a gun against an elected government is treason.

Poor people vote for their representatives, they get elected and then the rich people send the military in, and there appears to be so many people on here who can't see it for what it is.
