The Royal Family of Thailand Part 2: written by lko AYLEN
Narrated by Sir John Gieigud
' I am called a king, but my duties are quite different ... or difficult to define ... I do things that I think will be useful and that Is all.' (KING BHUMIBOL ADULYADEJ) ' The task of merely visiting the people as a conventional duty is nonsense. If we cannot participate in helping to alleviate the misery of the people, then we consider it to be a failure as Head of State.' (QUEEN SIRIKlT) Thailand's strength and unity lie in its religion and its monarchy. The lives and talents of the royal family are full of dramatic contrasts, from the regal pomp and splendour of traditional ceremonies to the earthy contact with the bulk of their people-the villagers with whom they spend nine months of each year. They travel the length and breadth of the country, working on a stream of projects to help, encourage and generally lead the Thai people to better lives.
