King Prajadhipok wanted the Privy Council to function as a truly effective political organ and
assigned the task to The Supreme Council. A committee was set up, with Prince Nagara
Savarga as chairman, resulting in an Act governing the appointments and function of the Privy
Council on 2 September 1927.

Besides efforts at political reforms at higher levels, the King also moved to build up political
awareness among the public. This was done through educating people about the local govern-
ment, i.e. Municipal Government, with the ultimate aim of a democratic system of Government.
A Municipal Act was drafted in 1930, revised and passed in 1933. (The photo of Bangkok

In accordance with true royal tradition, King Prajadhipok had strong determination to fulfil his
royal duties, i.e. to work for the progress of the country and welfare of the people. Thus, his
efforts to be close to the people, as evident in his speech while on visit at Phuket in 1928.
" ... The reason I come here to Phuket is to see the place and its location and to per-
sonally study the conditions and the problem of the region. Equally important, I wish to acquaint
myself with my people, whether they be government officials, learned monks or teachers,
merchants or the people in general. As has been customary from olden days in Siam, the rulers
and the ruled have shared their joy and sorrow. My first-hand knowledge from this visit will
enable me to work for greater benefit and happiness of the people in this region ... "
