You guys at this station pronounced his name wrongly. It's A-Dun-ya-dej. Please do your homework. And using negative comments; cult, forced to kneel down, etc is a form of disrespectful to HMK Bhumipol and the people of Thailand.
Williams B LEE Fake love ? lol. . Nobody forces them to stand in line for 10 hrs just to have a chance to pay respect to him for 5 mins. By the way, there were 35+ million people who have done so during the past 11 months. And close to a million volunteered to facilitate the process. Fake love ?.. lol. You may know a lot about other things, but you know very little about him. *Edit* The les majesty is strong here because in our culture the King doesnt argue back, the same way you and i do. It's not like in some country where a president can sue his people. If there were no such a law, there would be oneway critisism which is not fair.
Jirattikorn L. For the past 70 years that's all most Thai people's know, one should only look at North Korea , Thailand is not much different from north Korea regarding the King love and admiration, what kind of a love when you can go to jail for just saying the truth about the king or his family? True love would be? Let's say royal family of England, where the people's is free to read and write the honest truth about their society and talk freely, Thailand you can't.
Williams B LEE The funny thing is that i was going to type that we are very much different from north korea. If you don't know, i will tell you . Please allow me, sir. 1. Unlike DPRK(north korea), Thai King has no constitutional power. His power derives from pure respect of his people. People obey him on their free wills. He didnt rule the land physically, he ruled the hearts of his people. People you see in any vids were not forced to go. Trust me. Some of them even paid their ways to be there. 2. With the exception of our les majesty law, we have a very common set of laws like you guys do. Unlike DPRK, We have a fully functioning legal systems (independent from political influence). You can see that 2 of our prime ministers were sentenced for years in prison from their abuse of power. 3. In DPRK, no demonstration what-so-ever is allowed. Any one who are arrested will have his whole lineage in prison along with him : 3 generations up and 3 gen down the family tree. In case of foriegners : an american student was arrested in DPRK just because he strayed out of his tour group.. only to return to the US years later in coma. I can't remember his name. But in Thailand, foriegners are allowed to take photo here, and free to go whereever they please as long as it is not trespassing or violate any laws. In fact, you are very welcome to visit Thailand. 4. Despite your claim, we are pretty much a free country. We have a freedom to discuss politics, society or even laws. As long as it doesnt insult the king. As i have said, it's not in our tradition for the king to reply any (no matter it is true or false)accusation. And forgive us for our love to the king and our unique way to protect his honor.
Jirattikorn L. The dear leader of North Korea would say the same thing and the love over in the North Korea is much much more real then in Thailand, people's cry with real tear with whole family lol..... If the king is soooo nice? Why is the Les majesty's law is needed? Do you have any ideas of how many people's go to jailed or killed because of the king and his Les majesty law?
Williams B LEE .. Believe what you want. At this point, there is no use to tell you,sir. In fact ,right now, i am waiting in a-mile-long line just to pay respect to him on the cremation day today. This is just a local temple; not even a real place. Tens of thousand temples are like this. I wish you were here today. To actually see it yourself. Gotta go. Have a nice day.
Thai people, the most generous and helpful.

That is the name we call in Thai, we call him in English differently.
Another example is "Suvarnabhumi Airport" is "สนามบินสุวรรณภูมิ".
John Texas I could not have said better

Boycott voice tv
If only queen Elizabeth has the les majesty law, then the English might show 100% fake love as well lol
