Thais didn't pick him. the military in the senet picked him, now you know why. In 2021 they had the same amount of flooding up north the government (military) promised compensation to those affected. They got nothing. Plus, as of today 4th of Oct, 2023 most reservoirs are holding only 30%, 70% empty, of their capacity. Rama 9 told them when they were building them, that they were building them in the wrong places, but did they listen????????
