In
His Majesty's Footsteps
In the forests and in the hills, travelling conditions are often very
tough. In the monsoon season, even where there are unpaved roads, the
tracks can become very muddy and slippery. On certain grades even to walk
without slipping is very difficult.On one occasion when Crown Prince Vajiralongkorn
was young, he accompanied his father on trips to visit the country people.
It was drizzling on that day and the water run off from the hills was
quite heavy, which made travelling conditions difficult. Along the way,
the Crown Prince slipped and fell several times due to the slippery surface
of the tracks, but he was determined to face the challenge no matter how
difficult it might be.This is the result of the strict disciplines taught
to all of Their Majesties children who were brought up to serve the subjects
without any regard for personal comfort or danger. In fact, all the Royal
children have been well groomed to follow the good examples and footsteps
of their Royal parents. |
