HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn of Thailand is a respected and beloved figure in her native country for all of the work she does for the people, her many charities and her "hands on" attitude to getting things done. She is also an example of the bonds of friendship between the Thai Royal Family and the Imperial Family of Japan. She has been awarded the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Precious Crown by HM the Emperor (in 1991) and in February of this year opened a special exhibition in Thailand about two Japanese individuals who played an important part in the court life of Siam in the Kingdom of Ayutthaya period, one lady as a chef and one samurai as a military adventurer of the old style.
