Sondhi, Will, Fight, Monarch..., Well, Most, Monarchs

Sondhi L's mouth can get himself into trouble and his recent interview with Thai Post is another example of this. ASTV Manager has the transcript and the key quote is:

"วันนี้สู้มาคือสู้เพื่อให้เมืองไทยมีสถาบันพระมหากษัตริย์ ส่วนกษัตริย์จะเป็นพระองค์ใดผมยินดี ตราบเท่าที่องค์นั้นมีทศพิธราชธรรม เน้นตรงนี้นะ ตราบเท่าที่องค์นั้นมีทศพิธราชธรรม ผมยังเห็นว่าเมืองไทยต้องมีสถาบันพระมหากษัตริย์"

[BP's own translation: "Today, we fight so Thailand can have the monarchical institution. No matter who is the monarch, I'm happy [to fight for them] as long as that person has the [10] virtues of a king. [I] want to reiterate this. As long as that person has the [10] virtues of a king then Thailand must have the institution of the monarchy]

BP: As long as? So if there is a monarch who in the eyes of Sondhi L does not have the 10 virtues then what? Well the implication seems fairly clear from what Sondhi L states...

The more pertinent question is, who decides whether the monarch has all the 10 virtues? A referendum? Parliament? Or Sondhi L as the sole arbitrator?

BP can think of one scenario in particular in which Sondhi L may test the theory and then thinking back to an incident a few months ago well....

btw, the 10 virtues can be found here.*
