It becomes obvious to anyone who spends any amount of time in Thailand that the Thai people have a great respect for their King. I was so impressed by the amount of respect and honor that is given to the King.

While we were in Bangkok we decided to watch a movie and even before the movie started everyone stands in order to honor the King.

This picture of the King and Queen was a gift to me by Thai leaders and is now displayed in my room.

One of them said “When I see how the King acts I see God” What a statement!

As we were visiting different community development projects I found out that the King has visited every single province in Thailand. He has done so many things to help his people and to provide a better life for them.

Here is the King sweating as he in one of those provinces.

I love how the King did not just stay in beautiful Bangkok but was willing to get involved and go to where the people are and to where they are hurting.

I kept seeing the picture below everywhere throughout Thailand of the King kneeling down to an older lady who seems to be a beggar.

He is dressed so cleanly but reaches down to this dirty person. Who knows what he says but one can only imagine. The gesture itself speaks loudly.

Such a beautiful picture of the Kingdom.

His daughter the Crown Princess has her own foundation and is very involved in community projects around Thailand.
