I don't think that you and many people know this. The King sent his young son to a school in Germany. That's why the king traveled and stayed there often. He wanted his son to get to understand what down to earth is about. If his son continued to live in Thailand, he would not understand that because he would be treated as a Royal. Being down to earth is a very important thing to help you to understand hardship of fellow human being. When his son who would be the next king, grows up, he would treat Thai people right cause he learned something good back when was younger. In addition, when the king came to throne, he fired a bunch of courtiers or servants because they were bad and corrupted. No question if they hated him for that. So, the king was afraid that he would be assassinated. This is a reason why he spent time in Germany. Many people really don't know what they say. That could cause damage to some other people. What a shame.
Yeah it really seems like there's something up with him. Barely able to stand on his legs, looking so confused. And then pulled away by the women quickly.
His body and face are stiff. He moves like 95 year old man. He has a thick layer of make-up on his face. He should smile at the people, but he looks worried and scared.

I’m pretty sure his father knew about his ways before he died but it was too late for him to do anything about it since his son was already the heir to the throne.
@Roberto de la Rosa yes, yes he was. He cared about his people and worked really hard for a brighter future for our nation! He also didn't run away from his problems and faced them instead
@Roberto de la Rosa His father was a great king that did a lot in his lifetime for the people. I have traveled to and from Thailand a lot during the past 20 years and during his reign the people held him with reverence. Upon his death, the new king strayed from his father's example and as such is not well liked (although you would never hear people complain openly about him because of the law about criticizing royalty).
@@KenSexe67 don't get me wrong but I think the current king is focusing too much on how to be nothing like his father.

But the problem behind his so called will to become greater than father dearest is the fact that he's currently going insane and look rather lost. As if all his dreams died within him.

Once they obtain a military base in Brunei, all of Indonesia would be under China's control. Once that happens, a naval base closest to Australia from Indonesia. Then armed uprisings from several minority groups within Australia if they refuse to yield.

The King just a tip of iceberg. There are many people who support Thai Monarch. If The People doesn't want a King, it means The People behind The King don't have power anymore
The Thai-Monarch do not involve themselves in the Countries affairs. The previous King however, did a tremendous amount of work on behalf of the country and people,but that was under His own directive.
He looks like Otto Warmbier when the North Korean soldiers where escorting him to the plane back to the USA. Has anyone checked if he might be braindead and someone else just runs the country in his name? That's why they are hiding him in a Hotel in Germany?
He is indeed merely a puppet head mostly. Thailand is also a constitutional monarchy. The military junta is de facto the highest source of power (even made their own constitution to suit themselves).

Germany was against totalitarian governments last time I checked. What's the difference this time? Just name the king Persona non Grata in Germany and get it over with.

In the latest news, Thai police ceased what appears to be the biggest ketamine lot, weighting in 11.5 tonnes. But after 24 hours of ceasing the goods, police has to let it go because of “miss understanding” that it is a ketamine, “it is not a ketamine, it is Trisodium phosphate.”this is a statement of the minister of justice Somsak Thepsutin said in the later press conference announce the mistakes that he and the DEA had made. Meanwhile Thai people especially teens and people who are concerns of this ketamine has make some skeptical consumption that this lot is the order from the palace itself. Many of which are said some weird activity from the king that his wife has to carry him around because of his addicted to this ketamin and other illegal substance while stayed at Germany.
I kinda disagree. Let me tell you something, Thailand experience lot of coup d'etat and most of the whole world don't know about it. The reason is because the previous Thailand king can keep it under control. And most of Thailand respect the previous king. Monarchy not that different with other kind of government. It's pretty much the same. The world still controlled by the rich and influential family. Those politicians families are pretty much nobel family and feudalism. The good government is good government whether it is monarchy or not. But, I definitely prefer democracy.

The king and/or his advisers must have known German laws much better than the Germans. That's probably one of the reasons he chose Germany to enjoy himself fully and not worry too much about getting kicked out. He seems like a deplorable human being as well.

He's doing an MBS, but the Thais are not having any of it. That's why Thailand is one of the only few nations in Asia that were never colonized by any European empire.
How strange. Watching his wife guiding him around, and then at the end almost holding him up as you would with a grandparent whose mental faculties are failing.
That’s not his wife. He has random concubines escort him. His most recent wife is exciled along with his children. He’s not a good king. I’m 1/2 Thai & it’s so sad to say this but the common people do not like his monarchy or the corrupt government.
@@rosalindpk4578 No matter who the people are who are with him it appears to me that he is not very aware of what is going on. Make your own mind up what is causing this situation where he needs to be guided around like he's been drugged or he has some form of mental infirmity
Is he ok? He has a dazed unfocused look in his eyes and it seems like he's being guided or at least supported by the person next to him. Anyway, kudos to the protesters in Thailand. Keep up the good fight✊
It looks like the king has some heat related sickness. In every video he's either sitting down, or fighting to not pass out. It would explain why he prefers the cool air of Bavaria instead of the killing heat of Thailand.
i wonder, instead of renting the hotel for years. why not just buy it? it'd be cheaper right? and when he doesnt want to stay there anymore, the hotel could start profiting
Germany has very strict laws regarding foreigner land possession? Besides, how about Putin buying a district in the US? It's also a national security problem
The hotel stay is just to avoid the German inheritance tax. He owned a house in Bavaria and his son still leaves there. But for the said reasons he has transferred the ownership of the house to someone else.
What kind of a king is he? He inherited one of the most loved monarchies in the world, thanks to the amazing work done by his late and great father. He is so not ready for the title of Rama X.
Bruh i don't understand how this King can be so comfortable so far away from his Throne. Like bruh there are protests on the streets about your removal and he just chilling in Germany? He exiled himself before the protests started. Efficient.
From what I understand he was like this long before being a king, and in Thailand a lot of people were praying upon his ascendancy to the throne. The current king can just let the military rule, and the military lets him have enough money to enjoy himself.
He has three sons from one his former wives. They’re doing extremely well professionally, one is a doctor and the rest are lawyers. But he has banned them from entering the country. I think given a chance, they’ll be much better rulers since they’ve been living a humble lives overseas without any support from the royal family and their father.

When he went to “study” in Australia as a young man, he caused a lot of headaches for the Thai Embassy in Australia. Germany should keep him there forever so it’d be more peaceful in Thailand.
His Australian teacher who was interviewed for 60 minutes Australia said he was well behaved and quiet. 🤔

Why does Thailand needs a king who spends most of his time out of his country?
Most well informed Thai people don’t want him but he has the military government pointing guns at the people’s heads if they dare say anything against this idiotic king. I feel sad for the people and whoever are fighting for democracy!
I thought his father was the ironic king?
@@SB-qs9zu yeah that’s what a criminal slave master would do... he is no different...
Don't remember he is a human, so why he can't has his freetime like normal people?
The King just a tip of iceberg. There are many people who support Thai Monarch. If The People doesn't want a King, it means The People behind The King don't have power anymore
the king i don't think he is running the country look how his wife holds him and pulls him she is calling the shots
He seems like he’s on drugs.
I smell some conspiracies here
was gonna say that's not true. then I see it in the video. He looks like he's drunk and being guided by his wife
The Thai-Monarch do not involve themselves in the Countries affairs. The previous King however, did a tremendous amount of work on behalf of the country and people,but that was under His own directive.
Nonsense, he's had more Queens removed than a roudy LGBTY party on a Friday night. He definelty in power. He's just coked up to his eyeballs.

He looks like Otto Warmbier when the North Korean soldiers where escorting him to the plane back to the USA. Has anyone checked if he might be braindead and someone else just runs the country in his name? That's why they are hiding him in a Hotel in Germany?
He is indeed merely a puppet head mostly. Thailand is also a constitutional monarchy. The military junta is de facto the highest source of power (even made their own constitution to suit themselves).
I feel sorry for the Thai people that they had to go from King Bhumibol to this man who’s disgraced Thailand his whole life.
Definition of a king : an overrated human being living a luxury existence paid by hardworking citizens who sometimes cannot even afford to buy a loaf of bread.
The whole idea is pure insanity! How and why human beings allow their own oppression and slavery is beyond me! A king is a criminal!
Actually. Now people here cannot afford even their necessary food 🍱 for living .There are small shops are now closed in tourist city. They decide to immigrant their families to birth hometown.

Only allah swt is the most gracious majesty no offense im not trying to be mean
I dont envy the position Germany gotten into
They always tend to get the short end of the stick in history.
Is it just me, or does the king seem high and confused during all his public visits in this clip?
Germany was against totalitarian governments last time I checked. What's the difference this time? Just name the king Persona non Grata in Germany and get it over with. Consequences regarding the relations between the countries shouldn't matter if democracy is the priority. Unless, of course, democracy is not Germany's priority.
What illness does he suffer from. Can't seem to walk without support? And the glazed look?
Looks botoxed
A good king should not support a dictator
He looks like He is suffering stroke from the way he moves.
I'm Thai . And I think most of us don't like to see him as a king anymore no good news for our country these decade. Only using our taxes for himself and 20wife.
Only nationalist are support Vajiralongkorn family.
And they are most powerful group in our country.
U can see from what king ,gov and police done to protestor using non-sense law but not for those who called wearing yellow cloths

He said, " ...interplay of basic and international factors."
But how about enjoying foreplay in a foreign land.
The king looks terrified in front of the people
No need to have a headache - just block him!
Have Thais ever wondered "Is this king worthy of being their king?"
Young Thais are realizing this more and more.
This is what happened to the American Shah of Persia
Yeah lets just hope it doesn't end in an oppressive succesor regime, i for one grateful for the fall of the Shah but certainly not for the latter regime
But the shaw really could through a party.
I was thinking the same thing. Except Shah of Iran was thrown out of power already this king still has chance to save his life/wealth by just signing over the power
@@ryhanzfx1641 Thais only have military coup, multiple military coups actually. The only possible regime is a military govt like its neighbour, Myanmar.
“Can’t do much”? Bruh it’s your country ask him to leave? If he says no then kick* him out it’s YOUR country and you have that power because it’s YOUR country??
What like a republic?
It refers to political moves, it's not like the king doesn't have any non-powerful supporters that can instill backlash even if the majority won't care, our politicians always like to talk about consequences and drawbacks so sorry for that
Why doesn't Germany just declare him to be a persona non grata? We should have done that months ago. Cowardly federal government.
It's not that easy , since this could effect trade and multiple Germans in Thailand and the Investment that they have put in.
that's a diplmatically dumb move imo
It's not like he's doing anything in or to Germany. He's bought a house, and he's often living there. Yes, there recently was some fuss about that hotel business - but really only because it shouldn't have been allowed during Corona. Otherwise, from an everyday-German-perspective, he's basically just another rich and crazy dude.
@@markv9 Germany is not afraid to put at risk its multi-billion projects even with Russia, because of poisoning of Navanly (which I highly appreciate). Why should Thailand be any different? What can they do? Deport German pensioners?
@@АлексейГриднев-и7р Deport all 25000-50000 Germans that live in Thailand. For sure they would not raise their voices when they are back home. Raise their voices for the AFD and cause even more idiotic protests that don’t care about corona.
In the latest news, Thai police ceased what appears to be the biggest ketamine lot, weighting in 11.5 tonnes. But after 24 hours of ceasing the goods, police has to let it go because of “miss understanding” that it is a ketamine, “it is not a ketamine, it is Trisodium phosphate.”this is a statement of the minister of justice Somsak Thepsutin said in the later press conference announce the mistakes that he and the DEA had made.
Meanwhile Thai people especially teens and people who are concerns of this ketamine has make some skeptical consumption that this lot is the order from the palace itself. Many of which are said some weird activity from the king that his wife has to carry him around because of his addicted to this ketamin and other illegal substance while stayed at Germany.
He looks like he cant even walk properly, something is fishy here
clearly he keep being the king and being greedy is profiting someone else as well
sex addiction, sweating even to walk.
after all imo Thailand thrives on sex tourism.
The idea of monarch, kings and queens, is obsolete.. The only kings should stay are those on playing cards..
I kinda disagree.
Let me tell you something, Thailand experience lot of coup d'etat and most of the whole world don't know about it. The reason is because the previous Thailand king can keep it under control. And most of Thailand respect the previous king.
Monarchy not that different with other kind of government. It's pretty much the same. The world still controlled by the rich and influential family. Those politicians families are pretty much nobel family and feudalism.
The good government is good government whether it is monarchy or not.
But, I definitely prefer democracy.

The king and/or his advisers must have known German laws much better than the Germans. That's probably one of the reasons he chose Germany to enjoy himself fully and not worry too much about getting kicked out. He seems like a deplorable human being as well.

The Thai king needs to stop being a kardashian and rule his kingdom like his father did
If only he could
The monarchy in Thailand passed away along with King Bhumibol Adulyadej. I have no good words for the current one.
Nothing to do with the theme: it's nice that you let the interviewee say 'thank you' at the end, so often news providers just say bye and cut there, I think is very likeable this way.
@DW: why is there YT advertising on the video?
I was really shocked how people react to their new king.i have always known that his father was so respected and reverred by both military and the public. Even the old king can persuade military coup to stop.thats how respected the former king was but his son is opposite from his father

Glad my country has a democracy, a flawed one, but way better than having an unregulated monarchy.
He's doing an MBS, but the Thais are not having any of it. That's why Thailand is one of the only few nations in Asia that were never colonized by any European empire.
How strange. Watching his wife guiding him around, and then at the end almost holding him up as you would with a grandparent whose mental faculties are failing.
That’s not his wife. He has random concubines escort him. His most recent wife is exciled along with his children. He’s not a good king. I’m 1/2 Thai & it’s so sad to say this but the common people do not like his monarchy or the corrupt government.
@@rosalindpk4578 No matter who the people are who are with him it appears to me that he is not very aware of what is going on. Make your own mind up what is causing this situation where he needs to be guided around like he's been drugged or he has some form of mental infirmity
Is he ok? He has a dazed unfocused look in his eyes and it seems like he's being guided or at least supported by the person next to him. Anyway, kudos to the protesters in Thailand. Keep up the good fight✊
Okay then this is another "Marie Antoinette" chopping off a royal figures head😂
It looks like the king has some heat related sickness. In every video he's either sitting down, or fighting to not pass out. It would explain why he prefers the cool air of Bavaria instead of the killing heat of Thailand.
We predicted he would be a dissappointment before he was king. We now know we are right all along
Seeing the footage I was wondering if he was ill and stayed in Germany to get treatment?
i wonder, instead of renting the hotel for years. why not just buy it? it'd be cheaper right? and when he doesnt want to stay there anymore, the hotel could start profiting

inheritance tax. He owned a house in Bavaria and his son still leaves there. But for the said reasons he has transferred the ownership of the house to someone else.
Shah: "will u be joining us soon brother??"
What kind of a king is he? He inherited one of the most loved monarchies in the world, thanks to the amazing work done by his late and great father. He is so not ready for the title of Rama X.
The queen seems so protective of the king. Locking her hand grip tightly around his arm like he is going to fall down..
That’s not the queen tho. None of those women were.
I may be wrong, but I think there's something missing in the title. Either a comma after the word "Germany" or the "to be" verb at the same place.
Bruh i don't understand how this King can be so comfortable so far away from his Throne. Like bruh there are protests on the streets about your removal and he just chilling in Germany? He exiled himself before the protests started. Efficient.
nobody can resist a Sauerbraten and a good Erdinger weissbier
From what I understand he was like this long before being a king, and in Thailand a lot of people were praying upon his ascendancy to the throne. The current king can just let the military rule, and the military lets him have enough money to enjoy himself.
Bruh

He was imported to Germany and renamed as Reislangkorn.
He has three sons from one his former wives. They’re doing extremely well professionally, one is a doctor and the rest are lawyers. But he has banned them from entering the country. I think given a chance, they’ll be much better rulers since they’ve been living a humble lives overseas without any support from the royal family and their father.
Wait, he banned his own sons from the country?
@@NechamaGluck yea
He really lost his mind with that
The Thai king is just like the former King of Bavaria, Ludwig II. Except for building the fairytale castles ;-)
Not even close !!
King Ludwig wasnt a Playboy..he was not self centered but shy king...he liked to be alone or just by himself unlike the Thai King who like many people around him either. King Ludwig was more mysterious..more like what people him called a Fairy tail King...
His father is the total opposite of him
That explains why many thais still miss him
We do not need Kings and Gods .
We actually need Gods lmao, kings too like in the netherlands or in northern europe, they bring pride and support, they also have trade and personal assets that can help, Gods on the other hand are just important as a human, even if there are no Gods it is still important to worship them because we would have no morals
I never see like that , give order from other country.
