I am concerned because even in the past two years that were the jubilee years, I have seen evident signs which show that the people are still in great difficulties, and there are things that still need to be remedied and looked after in many areas.

Goodness is something that makes us serene and content; it is magnificent. Those who are not good are evil.

Therefore, I think that in the celebration of the 50 years of the present reign, there must be research on the changes that the country has undergone, and in the future, it could be used as a lesson for our future actions.

In Thailand's history there have been dissensions from time to time, but in general, unity has prevailed.

A good person can make another person good; it means that goodness will elicit goodness in the society; other persons will also be good.

There also is the plight that comes from natural disasters; these natural disasters could be alleviated or dealt with; we only need some time to do it.

I have been extremely touched by these signs of affection on the part of all the Thai people.
