HIS Majesty the King's birthday is coming up soon on December 5. Thais around the country and around the world will be celebrating this special day. We are all familiar with our King's great accomplishments and work for the nation. How are we going to show our gratitude for our beloved King? What will you do for the King on his birthday? Our Roving Reporter decided to ask some BPSW readers what they will do for our King.

I will put into practice His Majesty's self-sufficient economy. I will help Thailand by buying Thai goods and Thai products. I will be well behaved and become a good person in society.
