The significance of his reign consisted of three main themes: the well-being of his people, the stability of his nation, and national unity. His works is developed from his idea that the well-being of the people lead to the well-being of the nation. These two are connected and they cannot be separated. In the early day of his reign, he traveled throughout the country. He went to the very rural area, where most people did not want to go, to get to know his people and know what they need, and, in the process, allowed them to get close and know him. As he continued the activities that have the long lasting benefits to the Thai people, it has very much brought him close to his people. Thus, the Thais give him love, confidence and trust no other monarch in the Thai history, or probably the world, has ever enjoyed.
