Like his father, the new Klog is aminsntly of European lastes. He owns a large racing stud (The late King pletented Bangkok with' an op to date racecourse and golf links), and is a keen sportsman. Like his father (and, unlike bis mother), he fovariably dresses in European costume, and he is extremely popular, alike with the army, the navy, and the people. Of bls Ministers little need be said. They are nearly all Princes of the blood, and hold their poti. tions at the will of the King, who makes and unmokes laws, Imposes or remite taxation, at his discretion.
