Dear President Teodoro,
It was very nice of you to think of us in this time of sadness. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers. His Majesty, is the father of Thailand and a major figure in modern Asian history. His legacy is being honored all around the world. Rotarians should remember that His Majesty is the Royal Patron of Rotary in Thailand.
Despite this heartbreaking news, the best way for us to honor His Majesty is to follow in his footsteps. His wise counsel and devotion to human development will always be an inspiration to us all.
With regards, Charles Cheung, President 2016-17, Rotary Club of Bangkok
