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

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

The important thing for the survival of the Thai society is that the majority of those who work, both in the government and the private sector, still strive to work in the same direction; this is why the Thai nation still stands.

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.

The attainment of the present status of Thailand has to depend on the ability or the actions of all the inhabitants of the country.

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

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