I think the Thai King is a man with extraordinary capabilities.

But as an outsider I sometimes wonder, if his achievements were actually done by him or by Thai people that donated the "rights and honour" of their achievements to him. After all, the king is a man and not a God. (I am not talking about the achievements in the list in the original post).

I also believe the almost Devine image Thai people have of the king is sometimes supported and at the same time exagerated and misused for less honorrable purposes (especially by politicians).

If hope the king still has many years left to guide the country. Loosing him would be a tragedy for Thailand.
