Country music legend Yuenyong “Aed Carabao” Opakul debuted the
music video shot during HM the King’s birthday celebration last
year, an anthem calling on Pattaya residents and leaders to follow
His Majesty’s “sufficiency economy” philosophy.
Aed
Carabao debuts his ‘Sufficient Pattaya’ music video at City Hall in
honor of His Majesty the King.
Entitled“Sufficient Pattaya,” the song and video
received their first screening at Pattaya City Hall Feb. 12, with
Yuenyong joining Mayor Itthiphol Kunplome, the directors of Nong
Nooch Tropical Garden and Aksorn Technology College, and Anong
Sachatheva, winner of the 2011 national “Repaying the Debt to Mother
Nature” award.
Yuenyong takes the lead in the song, but is
joined by the Father’s Day celebration crowd at Bali Hai Pier Dec.
5. The lyrics talk of His Majesty’s generosity toward Pattaya and
calls for the city’s economic development to follow HM the King’s
“sufficiency economy” philosophy.
Ingrained in Thai society and even its constitution, the philosophy
is a set of moral, ethical and practical guidelines intended to help
the Thai people more effectively navigate globalization through
adherence to three principles - moderation, reasonableness, and risk
management - and two conditions: knowledge and virtue.
