Analysis of royal development projects clearly demonstrates that His Majesty had used Public Hearings for decades, long before the practice became widespread. His methodology is simple and straight-forward. He discussed the project and the expected results with the people before asking if they would be willing to adopt the project and, if so, he invited all relevant parties to negotiate and come to agreement among themselves regarding the implementation. When unanimous agreement is reached, local representatives as well as government officials would be summoned to acknowledge the agreement. They would also be asked to take initial steps required, such as settling problems of land ownership. Then His Majesty would bring in the concerned agencies to manage the administrative and technical matters of the implementation until the project is completed.
