It calls for reducing paramilitary ties, rethinking security roles, and promoting lawful conduct, while challenging churches to avoid funeral honors for violent actors and to confront demands for money to aid terrorists.

Thai King Leads Drug War Efforts In Northern Hills
Rama IX travels on foot and by Land Rover into the Thai highlands to promote crop replacement and rural development as part of a broader anti opium campaign. UN-backed efforts show some villages reduce opium by 40 percent, but overall output remains high in the golden triangle. The king personally counsels villagers, funds local needs, and emphasizes practical farming over imports while maintaining ceremonial presence as a constitutional monarch.
