His Majesty, has been advocating that people of Thailand should practice
sufficency economy, a great idea however the majority of the population
do not have (2) five baht coins to rub together.
The population is around 61 million including cats.dogs,and buffalos, if one would take the time to tune into the local TV nightly at 8-9 pm local channels the royal family is on the recieveing end of millions if not billions of baht given by various business groups to make merit.

There goes the sufficency economy idea for those who do not have to worry where their next bowl of rice is coming from. how about the poor in the North East, the forgotten travel agenda of the Royal Family, why because apparently they have no vested interest.

So ,I propose that His Majesty do the right thing, The Golden Jubilee to be either auctioned or sell the “Brown Topaz” as was told to the Thai people and give the proceeeds only to the poor, not politicians, the wealthy etc. This should be done before His Majesty meets his maker, and not leave this valuable to gather dust in some vault.
If this is done then everyone of his subjects can practice his idea of sufficency economy without fear of dying of hunger, educating their children,health care, shelter.

Just my idea to use a material object for the benefit of everyone and not a few………….
