With a fortune estimated at 35 billion dollars, Thai King Bhumibol Adulyadej, seen here in 2007, is the world's richest royal sovereign, and oil-rich Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan of Abu Dhabi is far back at No. 2, Forbes magazine reported Thursday. (AFP/HO/File/Ho)NEW YORK (AFP) - With a fortune estimated at 35 billion dollars, Thailand's King Bhumibol Adulyadej is the world's richest royal sovereign, and oil-rich Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan of Abu Dhabi is far back at No. 2, Forbes magazine reported Thursday.
King Bhumibol, 80 and, at 62 years on the throne the world's longest-serving head of state, pushed to the top of the richest royals list by virtue a greater transparency surrounding his fortune, Forbes said.
It said that the Crown Property Bureau, which manages most of his family's wealth, "granted unprecedented access this year, revealing vast landholdings, including 3,493 acres in Bangkok."
Forbes called it a good year for monarchies, investment-wise. "As a group, the world's 15 richest royals have increased their total wealth to 131 billion dollars, up from 95 billion last year," Forbes said on its website.
With oil prices soaring, the monarchs of the petro-kingdoms of the Middle East and Asia dominate the list.
Sheik Khalifa, 60, the current president of the United Arab Emirates, was estimated to be worth 23 billion dollars, on the back of Abu Dhabi's huge petroleum reserves.
In third was the sovereign of the world's biggest oil exporter, Saudi Arabia. King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz, 84, who inherited the Al-Saud family throne in 2005, came in with a fortune of 21 billion dollars.
The previous king of kings, wealth-wise, 62 year old Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah of tiny, oil-endowed Brunei on the Southeast Asia island of Borneo, fell to fourth place with 20 billion dollars.
"The sultan, who inherited the riches of an unbroken 600-year-old Muslim dynasty, has had to cut back on his country's oil production because of depleting reserves," Forbes explained of his dwindling fortune.
Fifth was Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, 58, of another Emirate, Dubai, with a net worth of 18 billion dollars.
One of two Europeans on the list, Prince Hans-Adam II of Liechtenstein, 63, ranked six on the list with 5 billion dollars in wealth. However the bank that is a key source of his family's wealth, LGT, is under investigation by the United States for helping wealthy people evade taxes.
Qatar's Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, 56, came in at seventh, worth two billion dollar; eighth was King Mohammed VI of Morocco, 46, his 1.5 billion dollar fortune based on phosphate mining, agriculture and other investments.
Number nine was Prince Albert II of Monaco, 50, his diverse fortune in the southern European principality put at 1.4 billion dollars.
Tenth on the list was Sultan Qaboos bin Said of Oman, 67, worth 1.1 billion dollars.
Rounding out the top 15 were: The Aga Khan Prince Karim Al Hussein, 71 (1.0 billion); Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, 82, 650 million dollars; Kuwait's Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, 79, 500 million dollars; Queen Beatrix Wilhelmina Armgard of the Netherlands, 70, 300 million dollars; and King Mswati III of Swaziland, 40, with 200 million dollars.
Forbes noted that because many of the royals inherited their wealth, share it with extended families, and often control it "in trust for their nation or territory," none of those on its list would qualify for the magazine's famous annual world billionaires ranking.
"Because of technical and idiosyncratic oddities in the exact relationship between individual and state wealth, these estimates are perforce a blend of art and science," it added.

This monkey blood sucker , are suck his own peoples blood , that make him so rich and most of Siames peoples are become a hooker lady boys.
I think she's cute, but disapointingly short. In fact, she looks much cuter after she divorced her husband.
I don't think so 12.53 PM. patriot
I had a chance to North and NE Thailand last year. I went to the rural area, Most of people are hilltribes, villagers, farmers. Even thought they are seem to be the poorest groups in Thailand, I saw their life surround with the good agricultural system (some quote it is a Royal project) they could sell anything they plant to earn the family imcome, not much but stable, which is really different in Kampuchea, insufficient to provide the main infrastructure like water resevoir, lack of cultivation techniques, fertilized land and so on.
I wonder whether how the Government help people to stand on their toes.

No wonder everyone wants to be a king of the country. They can earn a lot of money. Only the stupid citizens support and love them dearly.
No wonder this old goat, Thai king, has money to send troops to invade and occupy Cambodia. He is very thirst for wealth and expansion.
Only Ah Kwak Hun Sen doesn't defend the country. When the invaders come to his backyard, he personally spent his own money to buy 20 trucks to take his own soldiers to the front line. Actually, he stole all the money and put in his bank account and uses government money to claim as his personal distribution.
I think Ah Kwak is the second richest man in Cambodia.
Ah Thai King is a thef king and a never smile king. Sad face all the time. I don't know how many wives this guy has.
Why people love and support the royal family? They're the same as us. They shit and smell sting as we do.
Yes he's rich indeed because he prays to the stlolen JADE Budha from Cabodia, more ever he's praying in Khmer words. Do you know! this is the rule of the Thai Royalist, EVERY THAILAND'S KING MUST PRAY TO:
JADE BUDHA AND PREAH KO PREAH KAO IN KHMER LANGUAGES(from unknown source,it's the law of the Tai kingdom, the King prying words and the king official adressed to the foreigner diplomat not allow to report.
Thai monarch is an absolute monarch, everything belong to the King. King in Thailand has all power to rule and to reign. He secretely has power behind the military; no one Thai citizen can make comments about the Royal family members or even dare to say "Republican of Thailand"; no word that could show "less respect to the King; or otherwise that person will be shot or put in jail or tortured to death.
Ps: One Thai student was hanged just because he said "free Thailand".
The Thai citizen expressing their love & respect out of fear.
This King shot his old brother who was King, King Ananda Mahidol in his own bedroom. King Mahidol was only 20 years old.
One person who is even more powerful than King Bhumibol is his wife, Queen Sirikit; second powerful person is his playboy son, crown prince Maha Vajiralongkornhe, the killer has been infected by HIV.
Bhumibol shot his brother in 1946 and he was declared King in 1946, it was the year of Evil.
Bhumibol ancestors Chakri who took others' land from other nations to form its own nation, live in harmony by exchanging or giving land to UK, France for peace and to keep its country independent from the west colonization.
It is simple when land was not its own land, easy to trade or give away.
Very true, the Thai king is still practicing his royal words and praying in Khmer words.
Khmer Dor Rong Roeung!!
Forbes Magazine forget the richest in the world that is not king but EMPEROR IN KAMPUCHEA.Forbes needs to check the SWISS BANK.

Thanks for the info.
Buhimol is one evil son of a bitch.
By the way 10:30 PM, you idiot try to use your brain a bit.
9:48 PM
Can you tell me why the fat bitch queen of Thailand is more powerful then her asshole husband?
It is simple why queeny of thailand is powerful, bunrany too is powerful.
With this much money, the Royal Mafia can buy more planes and tanks to take over Cambodia then sale again just like his ancestors did before him.
When Britain and French threated Siam his ancestors gave some portions of the land they took from Khmer empire to exchange for peace and to keep his nation independent. Then President of US Andrew Jackson knew about he too threated Siam and since then Siam became a pawn of the US in the region. The US used Thailand to dominate S region and compete with China.
All war planes like B-52 bombed in Cambodia were flying from Thailand based in U Tapao and from a few island of Thailand.
During Pol Pot Thailand did the business with KR in Pailin and most gems Thais got from Pailin while Khmers were suffering. But Thaialnd always denied.
Bhumibol cannot take Cambodia, because China won't allow it. Besides Bhumibol's boss the US wants to do the business with China. Also the US has its hands full with Russia invade Georgia.
Have you seen, the more Bush threats Putin to withdraw troops from Georgia, the more Putin keeps moving his tanks deeper inside the heart of Georgia.
You know why? The first Lady of Georgia is an American and Putin wants to provoke the war with the US while the US is in dept for many trillion dollars.
It is all about oil money.
I meant debt not dept.
well, i'm not surprised a bit when he gets to sit on the throne for more than 60 years, of course wealth will inevitably accumulate due to high interest rate from his assets, etc... let that be an exemplinary to all other monarch out there in the world to be like the thai monarch who walked in the right path for their nation. who says you can't learn from your enemy or friend or whom ever?
If this Forbes estimate of Thai king net worth of more that $40billion dollars is true, I believe the Thai people should raise up and choose a republic regime instead. Thailand is still a poor country like Cambodia with an average yearly income of less than $1000. While should he amass so much money, and why should Thai people bow to him as a god king. He is just a blood sucker and a crook. I am wondering how much Hun Xen's net worth is. He may be in the same rich blood sucking league as the king of Thailand.
Hun Sen """"personal"""" wealth is around 5 billions.
11:44 PM
My Rottweiler don't even want to fuck Bunrany.
9:48PM you are right his wife has more authority than him, she have killed many Thai misters, those who are not respect or oppose the King absolute order, by shoting in the royal Palace, and by open the floor windows(the spot where the minister have ordered to be seat on then release by the mechanic contact) down to the beases waiting below. But remember he always praying in Khmer languages, expecially to the JADE BUDHA & PREAH KO PREAH KAO. They beleive only Khmer Ancester's Myths is supporting Thai Kingdom prospered and peaceful up to this day.
there is nothing wrong with using the Khmer language in the thai royal household. the only problem is denying it credit to the Khmer of cambodia. at least in the USA, people still appreciate the history and legacy british colony left for the original 13 colonies. unlike the USA, thai or siem instead discredit khmer whom they owed their very existence. anyway, try anything they want, once khmer will always be khmer. we all know that!!!
2:19AM. It is true, but De Amey Ah Thong of Bhumibol will crawl to their King and will freak da hell to Forbes and say LIAR, an't no TRUE. Deny and DENY as always.
9:07 PM
Stupid Khmer. Let me give you some FACT.
Emerald buddha created by Tai Lanna Kingdom (northern Thailand), moved to Lanxang then to Bangkok. No Khmer involved.
Royal court has some ancient Khmer words but mostly Pali-Sanskrit.
In everyday life, The king and his family speak Thai like other ordinary Thai not speak Khmer.
In formal ceremony, Thai people speak RajaSapt which is the high-level Thai language (most Pali-Sanskrit, less ancient Khmer) to the King. The king himself speaks normal Thai language to Thai people.
Don't be fool by the Thai anti-royalists here because you will be their Thai KWAI.
the buffalo LOL....
Psychologically, blaming others can make one feel fulfill some thing their shortage.
(KI-media or Fake media is a critical channel to help you relieve the symptom)
No matter things are true or not.
:D
About His Majesty discredit process operated by suffering Thaksin and his slaves, can make them feel good too (just for a while).
Thai people realise the facts, His majesty do only best for his people, Our nation's happiness, prosperity, well being can prove. We love him (and Her Majesty) from the bottom of our heart. (I can't help if others jealous us :D)
His property is not belong to himself but for nation as the Foreign Ministry indicate in react letter to Forbes recently.
I don't compare the people poorness to Cambodian Even though some of you said "the same as Cambodian" because the fact is the fact, don't lie to yourself dear.
"Give the respect to other, you will get the respect in return"

BBC news today said the Thai reject that news is is fault report.
So the blind king not Number one king that have a lot money??????? hahahhaha he is not poor ,not rich but the king of thief that encroach neighboring land.
You are mentally retarded, I cannot blame you for that, and I don't envy you either. Even less your dark king.
As a Thai student and good king supporter don't question anything.
No matter things are true or not.
His majesty Boomol like to fuck you and your people and you feel good about it so what.
If don't you see nothing bad in your country, so be happy.
Absolutely the wealth of your king belong to the people.
Agree again the poor people of Thailand is not the same as a poor in Cambodia.
Give yourself some respect share your thought on Bangkok post, not here.
You are Thai sophomore (no doubt about that.)

- Forbes Special Report on the World’s Richest Royals
August 22, 2008, 9:09 pm
With regards to the Forbes Special Report on the World’s Richest Royals published on 20th August 2008, which ranked His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej of Thailand first, the Crown Property Bureau has clarified that the report is inaccurate and inconsistent. While the Report states that items elsewhere are considered not to belong to the Monarch and “as such are not counted in the Monarch’s net worth,” Forbes has included land and other assets belonging to the Crown Property Bureau which is not in His Majesty’s personal net worth.
The Crown Property Bureau also stated that it leases most of its land at low prices to state agencies, non-governmental organizations, community housing and shophouses. Only about 7% are leased at commercial prices.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes to further add that the report’s reference about His Majesty the King and the 2006 military intervention is incorrect. His Majesty had no role in the military intervention that took place in September 2006. As the Head of State according to the Thai Constitution, Royal assent is required for important matters of state. His Majesty’s royal assent by signature to the order appointing the Chairman of the Council for Democratic Reform was the pro forma exercise of functions assigned to a constitutional monarch.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already sent this clarification to Forbes.

บทความพิเศษของนิตยสาร Forbes เกี่ยวกับพระมหากษัตริย์ที่ร่ำรวยที่สุด
22 สิงหาคม 2551 21:09:19
ตามที่ เมื่อวันที่ 20 สิงหาคม 2551 นิตยสาร Forbes ได้เผยแพร่บทความพิเศษเกี่ยวกับพระมหากษัตริย์ที่ร่ำรวยที่สุดในโลก ประจำปี พ.ศ. 2551 และได้จัดให้พระบาทสมเด็จพระเจ้าอยู่หัวทรงอยู่ในลำดับแรก ของพระมหากษัตริย์ที่ร่ำรวยที่สุด นั้น สำนักงานทรัพย์สินส่วนพระมหากษัตริย์ ได้ชี้แจงว่า บทความดังกล่าวมีความคลาดเคลื่อนจากข้อเท็จจริง เนื่องจากว่า ทรัพย์สินที่บทความนำมาประเมินนั้น ในความเป็นจริง มิใช่ทรัพย์สินส่วนพระองค์ แต่เป็นของแผ่นดิน ซึ่งเป็นไปในทำนองเดียวกันกับพระมหากษัตริย์ในประเทศอื่น ที่บทความเดียวกันนี้ไม่ได้จัดอันดับฐานะความร่ำรวย เพราะทรัพย์สินต่างๆ ไม่ใช่ของกษัตริย์ หากแต่เป็นของคนทั้งชาติ
สำนักงานทรัพย์สินฯ ให้ข้อมูลเพิ่มเติมว่า “ที่ดิน” ในความดูแลของสำนักงานทรัพย์สินส่วนพระมหากษัตริย์ ส่วนใหญ่หน่วยงานราชการ องค์กรสาธารณะกุศลเป็นผู้ใช้ประโยชน์ และจัดให้ประชาชน ที่ไม่ได้มีฐานะร่ำรวย รวมทั้งชุมชนอีกกว่าหนึ่งร้อยแห่ง เช่าในอัตราที่ต่ำ มีเพียงส่วนน้อยประมาณร้อยละ 7 ของที่ดิน ที่จัดให้เอกชนเช่าและจัดเก็บในอัตราเชิงพาณิชย์
กระทรวงการต่างประเทศขอเรียนเพิ่มเติมว่า บทความพิเศษดังกล่าวยังได้พาดพิงถึงพระบาทสมเด็จพระเจ้าอยู่หัวว่าทรงเกี่ยวข้องกับการปฏิวัติ เมื่อเดือนกันยายน พ.ศ. 2549 ซึ่งไม่ถูกต้อง พระบาทสมเด็จพระเจ้าอยู่หัว ทรงไม่มีบทบาทเกี่ยวข้องกับการปฏิวัติดังกล่าวแต่อย่างใด การที่ทรงมีพระบรมราชโองการแต่งตั้งประธานคณะปฏิรูปการปกครองในระบอบประชาธิปไตย อันมีพระมหากษัตริย์ทรงเป็นประมุข เป็นเพียงหน้าที่ขององค์พระมหากษัตริย์ ในฐานะที่ทรงเป็นพระประมุขของประเทศ ตามที่ได้บัญญัติไว้ในรัฐธรรมนูญแห่งราชอาณาจักรไทย
ทั้งนี้ กระทรวงการต่างประเทศได้ชี้แจงไปยังนิตยสาร Forbes ด้วยแล้ว
I think the Thai king should tell its own people and the world that his coffer of $36 billions was obtained legally and it belongs to Thai people as said. Also Hun Sen and his familly should declare that his stock or holding of $ 5 billions also. With this, the Thai and Cambodian people will vindicate this accusation of illegal money making and corruption.
I agree with 12:45am. In most democratic countries, it is illegal to do side business and get rich while the person is on a government job. This case is called conflict of interest. Thaksin and wife did thid kind of illegal thing, that is making money while on the government job, and they got caught, did'nt they?.
Hun Xen & wife are doing similar thing and they are illegally getting rich on the job also, with $5 billions net worth. They will be prosecuted one day.
I do not take the crap to this Thai king one he is blind ,two he kill his brother for the thrown ,three he teach his people to steal Cambodian land,he can try like the idiot above mention,but you know well as Cambodian abroad not that stupid like you thought, your Thai nation are survive on this planet by cheating and stealing the others neighbors for your own ,shamelessly you born with your foot but walking with your knee to see that stupid king that called knee jerk, so keep your good dream up ,your Thai used to fuck your neighbors ,this time I personal think time for your Thai to pay your prize,may be Cambodia,Malay,and Burma fuck you all up.
Do Not believe what the bad blood Thai nation said,go to hell Thai! This is the good wishes that I have to my neighbor Thai country.
Forbes has done studied many years and Forbes Magazine's information is accurate. Thai Monarchy owned the whole nation. Lese Majesty used to silent the critics. King of Thailand has spoken to his people that he does not agree with the law created him above all. His wife Queen Sirikit makes sure every one worships her husband, the King, so the Lese Majesty remains in active. Many foreigners are in Thail jail for making comments about King Bhumibol.
Some may be dead.
Look my body Thaksin will make a come back and fuck Bhumibol ass until his penis emerge through the king's mouth.
Yea baby.
Hun Sen.
Thai 's vindictive may be it time to pay it prize,come around and go around ,Thai killed Cambodian people while they searched refugee in Thai Land,no way that we forget the Thai 'treatment so go a head and enjoy your encroaching khmer land ,we remember all injustice killing while we were in your camps.
Death to all Thai!

As I am a Thai Citizen.
This is our duty sir, to protect
Our monarchy, sovereignty, develop the country etc. as indicate in Thai Constituency law.
You or your patriots use uncivilized word to criticize our King and our royal institute.
If you don't want to see me in here, ask KI-media to set firewall for people inside Cambodia only.
Then you can create news, rumors, propagandas, and motivate the emotional (drag the nose) of cambodian people anything you want as you usually did.
What ever you said about your internal affair or your deadlock problems.Go ahead! I won't get involve. But this, you are spurring self-created stories (by yourself or by others) about our King to induce others who doesn't know the fact.
Is this your business?
We will never ever blame the Royal institute of the other countries.
Every Royal institute has their own worth. We respect them.
A sophomore
Setting a firewall would defy the purpose of a blog, what do you think high school boy?
You can share your thought here anytime, no lese majestee here.
You be stay dumb if you want that's your right.
Just keep crawling in front of Bhumibol.
You are a Bhumibol's somphore.
Who care about your king but on the recent matter your king pretending that he hasn't know any thin about Thai try to rob Cambodian Preah Vihear,there were fourteen provinces that your fore father ancestors took away from khmer you thing that not my business,death to all Thai your people act like the angle but in your blood are contaminated with the venom you are and all your people are cold blooded,because you get train since you were born to be a killer and cheaters.
Now if you are thinking you and your people are angel can you answer me some question?
Did your forefather ancectors ever encroach Cambodian,Laos,Malaysia and Burmese Land if you come clean you shouldn't get angry or depress about that ,and if you did all that bad thing like our comment please calm down , so we are human like you as well , also you have mentioned(respect the others in return of respect?)
Did you respect your neighboring ?
Oh my dear Thai neighbor if you just get out do not preach in here ,you're welcome.
Blood pay with Blood! robber and khmer killer!
To 9:48p.m
It wasn't him who killed his brother. It was his future father in law then who had blood in his hand. His ambition is to get his daughter ( The young Ms. Sirikit ) to be the queen of Thailand and he did it successfully.. Now Sirikit The Queen had been queen for over 60 years. Does it make sense? Well, sure it does. Bhumibol wouldn't dare to caught. For what? Beside he will be King anyway. Would he be King, if his brother still be alived to day? No way! The King couldn't never smile. You tell us why? It doesn't matter how much money he has or be King for life, but the man lost his brother. His beloved brother! On top of that he wouldn't dare turn the case against his father in law. He cann't. It's impossible and for what???!!! Think about it my friend. At least not all of us were stupid to figure it out and if the King himself doesn't care enough to find out the truth, who else will???
You're right the night of the assassination people saw Mickey mouse running away from the royal palace with a gun in his hand.
9.26 AM
OK. I'll quit the war of words now.
For the question you ask me. I'm sure you can study or search by yourself.
No, Blood doesn't pay with blood but a high-priced lesson for the future.
Thank you for praising us as angels.

Me, A Sophomore
You heard it that Thai KIng has $36 billions. So what? Most of them are in land in Bangkok, the forbe said. Yes, if the king to tell all those 5000 acres of land, he will collect the $36 billions, but over his dead his body, King Bhumibol will sell those lands. He probably got some money from renting them here and there. Leave the poor King alone. He lives to bless Thailand. Let him have it, will Ya? Just so he doesn't send his troop to cause trouble with us, will be fined with it. Who gives a sh*t who has what anyway? We live to bless Cambodia. Ta hell with King Bhumibol sh*t!
Yeah! sick of hearing you Thai Shit!
The Thaicong are so rich at the expense of the Muslim in Southern Thailand and the rest of dirt poor Thai population!
Oh well! As long as the Thaicong King can claim his title as the world richest and nothing is matter in the world and that is why this Thaicong King is willing to overthrow Takshin who is trying to play his role and he also willing to send his Thaicong army into Cambodia to steal more richness from Cambodia !
What does it really matter now because death will make everybody equal!
and don't we all know that Thailand is almost full of whores? and Deos King give a damm about it? He cann't, but praying. Here is his praying sentence" you stupid dumb thai people, if you don't know crap, you just have to go to hell!" LoL
10:07 AM,
I heard story like you that Sirikit's father, prince Suranath was a powerful general, he has power to be King's maker, just lik eHun Sen. But why did he have to assassinate King Mahidol, a handsome bachelor King who was only 20 years old? Why didn't he give his daughter to King Mahidol?
Bhumibol has to tell the true before he dies who shot his own brother on the head in cold blood while Bhumibol was also in the King's bedroom?
There're a lot troubles inside the country during cold war, King Prajadipok (Rama VII) abdicated the throne and gave it to his nephew King Mahidol who was shot.
The US and UK wanted to use Thailand as a base of war plane to attack Communists, could it be pressure from them that cause King Mahidol scared or refused, then they forced his young brother Bhumibol instead? By doing so Bhumibol had to kill his own brother so he can be King?
There're only three people when the King was shot, his mother who always with her three children. She didn't stay away from them because they were still young.
Bhumibol and his mother knew who killed her older son, King Mahidol.
How can she tell the true knowing her youngest son killed her older son?
Many peple who knew Sirikit said she is cold like ice and she can order to kill others just to keep the throne for her husband and her children.
What Sirikith did to Yuvadhida Polpraserth, her son's ex wife was cruel.
By the way, King Bhumibol Rama IX may be the last King of Thailand. I hope it will.

There're a lot troubles inside the country during cold war, King Prajadipok (Rama VII) abdicated the throne and gave it to his nephew King Mahidol who was shot.
The US and UK wanted to use Thailand as a base of war plane to attack Communists, could it be pressure from them that cause King Mahidol scared or refused, then they forced his young brother Bhumibol instead? By doing so Bhumibol had to kill his own brother so he can be King?
There're only three people when the King was shot, his mother who always with her three children. She didn't stay away from them because they were still young.
Bhumibol and his mother knew who killed her older son, King Mahidol.
How can she tell the true knowing her youngest son killed her older son?
Many peple who knew Sirikit said she is cold like ice and she can order to kill others just to keep the throne for her husband and her children.
What Sirikith did to Yuvadhida Polpraserth, her son's ex wife was cruel.
By the way, King Bhumibol Rama IX may be the last King of Thailand. I hope it will.

I am Bangkokian. There are many alien workers here, Burmese in factories, Loatian as housemaids. Most Burmese and Loatian are legal workers but Khmers. I am very sick of illegal Khmers, they come to be beggers here, so many of them are children forced to beg money from farang tourist at the heart of Bangkok downtown.
Please bring your dirty flock back. Please...

I am not surprise, the Blak clade guaing Leader & the thieve's Leader always get richer then the hornest Buseness pratice Leaders. First, he had stolen good from the neighbouring Country then his owne Nation. Soon he he will pay the price for!. The Siamese people are not able endurant any longer. He will be the last King of Siamese in this 21th Century.
Down to Ah Siamese! Down!!!!
To 10:55 & :57a.m
Both Mahidol & Bhumibol had their love interests. The current Queen Sirikit happened to be so damm close to Bhumibol while he was studying and feeling ill in switzerland. That old man who happened to be her father saw it coming. Thet lady who was also happened to Mahidol's love interest may seem to cause some serious problem for his daughter and how would you like to be the father in law of the King buddy??? and is British or the American bad? Your brain and most of us are a little too small to think that far. Not Sisikit's father and you need to get that into your head.
A better article about Thai King’s wealth here:
http://www.forbes.com/magazines/global/2008/0901/032.html
The $35 billion is misleading, since, as stated clearly in the new Forbes Article, the thousands of acres of prime real estate holdings in Bangkok are worth $31 billion.
Research for 2005, shows the total income of Crown Property Bureau (CPB) at $280 million (adjusted for current exchange rate). In that total, $200 million was from company dividends, and $80 million from the real estate. This is consistent with the recent Bangkokpost citation that most of CPB’s land is leased at low-priced, below market rate to state agencies, NGOs, and low-income tenants. It was also stated that only 7% of the land is leased at commercial rates. Paul Handley makes the same comment in the new Forbes Article that the CPB is not charging market rates, and that “raising them would cause serious repercussions, especially for its thousands of low-income tenants.”
How much of the annual income generated by the CPB goes to charity is unknown, but I am sure a good share of it does go to charity.
So, don’t treat the $35 billion figure as if it was the King’s disposable income. It is not. The greater bulk, ie. $31 billion, is Bangkok real estate being leased at very cheap prices, and most of the rest is in share holdings which are invested in the long-term.
The new Forbes Article makes the point that the CPB’s goal is: “to aid the country’s development by investing in key industries and providing below-market-rate housing for low-income citizens.”
I think the King is using his assets wisely and for benefit of Thailand.
The very reasons why Ai Maew and thsoe Octoberists trainned Khmer Rouge who want to establish the New regime are attacking His Majesty can be listed as follows:
1 His Majesty is the basis for the Jurisdition System. he appointed qualified Judges who could not be manipulated by Executive and Legislative Branch. All the vindicts have to be judged in the name of His Majesty.
2 His Majesty is the basis for National Security. The List of top brass reshuffle could NEVER be considered as the legal reshuffle without the Royal Approval
3 His Majesty is the basis the Faith. His Majesty could approinted the monks to run Sangha and perform all the holy cerremonie, including the change of golden cloths of Emerald Buddha, the plowign ceremony.
4 His Majesty has exclusive right to appoint the able men to run Crown property Bureau which involved with hundreds thousands acres of lands, Siam Cement PCL, Siam Commercial Bank PCL, Deves Assurant, etc. etc.
Withotu Hsi Majesty thsoe EVIL politicians and heri hnchmen would be able to turn Thailanders tion abject SLAVES.
This Internet mercenaries, it is the time for you to rethink abotu what you have DONE in exchange for 500 baht a day, a fried rice and icy black coffee.
Those politicinas who hire you to post Anti Monarchy messages are goign to CUT YOU done once they have becoem the Real Mastetr of tyhe Country.... just like the farmers butchering buffaloes right after the harvest season. and
the government chopping the heads of commanders right after the end of wars.
Thai king is not good ,he blind, he killed his brother for the throne ,he do not stop the Thai troop while ,Preah Vihear Temple registered as the world heritage.He wanted Cambodia s temples a long Thai Khmer border.
So death to the Thai King aggressor!
11:39 is trying to explain that Thai king $36 billions holding and investment are legitimate. 11:39 has not shown that there are no conflict of interest and the people are not cheated. These kinds of investement and holding are illegal in democratic countries unless they are done through a third party who manages the king's assets as blind trusts, funds, and investments.

You fucken Thaicong bitch! You should blame on your fucken Thaicong middlemen for bring these dirt poor Cambodian children to Thailand to work as beggar! Please don't tell me that they get to Bangcock by accident! This is a fucken human trafficking issue!

King Bhumibol owned Thailand and owned their lives. King Bhumibol is the living GOD of Thai people. King Bhumibol is the richest Monarch in the world. Now his Amey Athong try to refute. For just Queen Sirikit diamond crown can feed the whole nation.
How is his play boy son who is infected with Aid doing? He is a criminal and murderer.
God bless Thak Sin to success with his projects in Koh Kong ,and bruing his sattelite company to Cambodia and fuck all ah Thai and ah Youn !

I don't understand. Why Forbes don't report detail and using landholdings. It's look like you want show a half of fact. It so baddddddddd.
Emerald Buddha was a gift from Sri Lanka to the Lao King via the Khmer King. The Thai King stole it from Laos back and forth and ended up in the hands of the Thai King in Bangkok Palace.
All the Thai Kings have no connection with Pali and Sanskrit, but they have connection with Khmer.
With Khmer lands and Khmer treasurer that his ancestors robbed from Khmers included Khmer gold sacred bull called “Preah Ko” that makes the Thai King became a richest royalist in the world.
Before he died, he sent Thai troops to rob Khmer temples and Khmer lands at the border so he can share with his family for the next richest generation.
Thailand is a land of thieves robbing Khmer architecture, Khmer design, Khmer history, Khmer sacred gold Bull “Preah Ko”, Khmer alphabet, Khmer numerals, Khmer temples, Khmer dances, Khmer music, Khmer instruments, Khmer martial arts, Khmer customs, Khmer white elephants…...I can go on and on…..
I understand that some of posters commend on the topic without reasonable or accurate information. They may hear or listen to someone or some sources that are not original info. Thay can say anything they want without social responsibility. I have some questions for them.
How many books or magazines that you get thoses information, or you just think it may be or should be?
Have you ever been to Thailand as the one who need to learn on real lifestyle of Thais including their belief and respectation, not like a common travellers?
How much do you understand the history in Southest Asia back to 1000 years ago up to the present?
In you opinion, what is the diferrence between the philosophy of the western and the east?
Before saying anything, please make sure that your information is correct.
To: The last post @ 3:22 PM
SEA history is NOT 1000 years for Cambodia.
SEA history is OVER 2000 years for Cambodia.
All Khmer students know about SEA history because they learn at school from the Khmer history written by the Khmer historians. Khmer Empire ruled over SEA and Khmer Civilization spread over SEA when Thais were Tai people living in Nanchao, south of China.
Where was the Thai King when his Thai soldiers killed Khmer refugees at Dangrek Mountain????? Have the Thai King ever tried to stop his Thai soldiers not to shoot Khmer refugees????
Where was the Thai King when his Thai soldiers beaten up Khmer children at the camp refugees just playing the Thai coins with the Thai King picture the Thai coins??? Have the Thai King ever tried to stop his Thai soldiers to stop beat up Khmer children????
Where was the Thai King when his Thai soldiers invading Khmer lands and Khmer temples at the border??? Have the Thai King ever tried to stop his Thai soldiers to stop invading Khmer lands and Khmer temples at the border????
The west and the east got nothing to do with Thai thieves in SEA.
Thai thieves claimed Khmer alphabet, Khmer vowels and Khmer numerals belonging to Thais and today Thai thieves are claiming Khmer lands and Khmer temples at the border belonging to Thais.
For the past 700 years since Khmers helped Tai people from the Mongol and Khmers helped Siam from the Burmese, Thais never built or created anything by their own to impress the world, but to destroy Khmers, steal Khmer lands, steal Khmer culture and Khmer temples and claimed belonging to Thais without shame.
Despite the criticism that is going about monarch, as an outsider, I just want to question why are Cambodians throwing anger tantrums on Thais when the poverty and conditions in Cambodia is caused by Pol Pot? You have an entirely missing generation of people, its not because the Thais are stealing your lands or anything, if you are going to start blaming you have to look at your policy makers first. Otherwise you're no different from a pawn, Cambodian politicians draw attention to Thailand in order to disrupt the people from the true cause of poverty while they get away with it exploiting you!
most of his money go for royal projects ! and to anyone who talked bad about him or anyone who said that you were in thailand before, did you ever ask thais ? about why they do love the king ? be smart !
If Pol Pot caused the poverty in Cambodia that means Thailand has to rob the Khmer territories and the Khmer temples at the border?
Where was the Thai King when his Thai royal armies killed thousand Khmer refugees in 1979-1980? Has he ever apologized to Khmer people?
All the Thai King included this Bhumibol are Thai thieves robbing Khmer culture, Khmer lands and Khmer temples and claimed belonging to Thais without shame.
I know all of u guys who'd post here ..all of u r jealous cos ur country cant do it..go to check in history fisrt ..dont have to show off how much idiot r u?..look back to ur country ur family or ask with ur grand dad and grand mom ...what's real b4 comments. respect to youself first b4 ask some one to respect to u.
And I knew who you are 1:52 AM
You are the one jealous of Khmers because Khmers knew the Thai King better than you. Thais were Tai refugees running from the Mongol killing included the Thai King's ancestors. Thais were helped by the Khmer King and the Khmer people as Khmer letter alphabets, Khmer vowels and Khmer numerals have been using by Thai people today as Thai official language.
Thai people never created anything by their own Tai, but to destroy or claim Khmer lands, Khmer temples, Khmer arts and Khmer culture belonging to Thais. Thais stole Khmer statues, Khmer temples and changed into Thai name and claimed as Thai creation.
The word "Thai" that destroyed the Khmer origin in Thai history and in Thai culture that leaded the Cambodia Thailand clashes on October 15, 2008 causing dead and injured. Thai leaders included the Thai King enjoy seeing Khmer people suffering again and again in hoping one day Khmer people will be disappeared so Thais can own all Khmer creation and claimed belonging to Thais.
Thai soldiers are robbing Khmer lands and Khmer temples right now at the border and you are telling Khmers to look back at our country???
You are nothing but an ignorant one.

We Khmers know our country very well and we all know that our Khmer numerals are all on Thai currency today because Thailand stole our Khmer numerals and claimed belonging to Thais without shame just like Thailand stole our lands and our temples at the border and claimed belonging to Thais without shame!!!
Thailand will have a Thai King and a Thai Queen whore soon. All Thais know is killing and robbing Khmer property and porn.
Watch these videos well Thailand is a Nazi, Thief and Porn land.
