Bhumibol Adulyadej (Thai: ภูมิพลอดุลยเดช; rtgs: Phumiphon Adunyadet; pronounced [pʰūː.mí.pʰōn ʔà.dūn.já.dèːt]; see full title below; born 5 December 1927) is the King of Thailand. He is also known as Rama IX, as he is the ninth monarch of the Chakri Dynasty. Having reigned since 9 June 1946, he is the world's longest-serving current head of state and the longest-reigning monarch in Thai history, serving for 7009219872880000000♠69 years, 246 days.
In 1957, the military overthrew the government with allegations of lèse majesté, which is offence against the dignity of the monarch, punishable under Thai law, starting a new and long-lasting relationship between the monarch and military in governmental matters. Although Bhumibol did invite public criticism in a 2005 speech, the lèse majesté laws have not been revoked by the Thai parliament.
Forbes estimated Bhumibol's fortune—including property and investments managed by the Crown Property Bureau (CPB), a unique body that is neither private nor government-owned, to be US$30 billion in 2010, and he was the head of the magazine's list of the "world's richest royals" from 2008 to 2013. In May 2014, Bhumibol's wealth was once again listed as US$30 billion. Officially the assets managed by the CPB are owned by the crown as an institution, not Bhumibol Adulyadej as an individual.

Thailand's King Bhumibol Adulyadej has made a rare public appearance, amid concerns for his ailing health. In television footage released Monday by the palace he is seen swearing in judges at a Bangkok hospital where he has been staying.

Thailand's ailing king spoke on for the first time since his country's political chaos began, but failed to directly address the sometimes violent crisis that has paralysed Bangkok. Many in the country had seen the revered monarch as the best hope for peacefully resolving the standoff. Speaking from the hospital, where he has been for more than seven months, King Bhumibol Adulyadej told newly appointed judges that they should faithfully carry out their duties and help keep the country stable. "In the country, there might be people who neglect their duties, but you can set an example that there are those who perform their duties strictly and honestly" . His vague comments could be seen as a possible reference to accusations that the government has failed to keep order when faced...

Am 05.12.2013 feierte König Bhumibol Adulyadej in Hua Hin wo Er sich zur Zeit aufhält seinen 86. Geburtstag. Hundert tausende säumten die Straße, einige haben schon auf den Gehwegen übernachtet um einen guten Platz zu haben. Um 6 Uhr bin ich aufgestanden um auch noch einen brauchbaren Platz zu finden aber das war nicht möglich, es waren einfach zu viele Menschen da. Nach 3 Stunden in der prallen Sonne in einer sehr unbequemen Stellung im Straßengraben hat man mir mitgeteilt das es verboten sei den König zu fotografieren. Der König saß in einem geschlossenen PKW und ich habe ihn nicht einmal gesehen. Der erste Teil des Videos wurde schon am 03.12.2013 gemacht als die Königliche Garde den Auftritt übte.
