In conclusion, from the past until the present the Thai public sector has made
efforts to reform the bureaucratic system, by many means, in different periods of time,
and in diverse situations. The reform in the past aimed to rule, control, and maintain
the ruler’s power rather than to provide citizens fundamental public services. The
basic format of the Thai political system, its form of government, and public
administration system was originally copied from that of India which was long
established, and also influenced the normal life of Thais and society.
