He just believes in giving people options and empowering them to do stuff for themselves.

His life story is quite remarkable, son of a Thai father and Scottish mother, who came to live here in the 1930's having met at Medical School in Scotland. He was educated at Geelong Grammar, though he was known to neglect his studies for sports, beer and girls.


He has acted, run, very successfully, the National water authority and been a politician.

A great man, used to live in Sukhumvit 39, not sure if he still does.

Actually in the soi's between Asoke and Thong Lor, you'd be very suprised at some of the people I have had as my neighbours over the years....5555
