  • Weak delete. Subject has plenty of publications, but I couldn't find any in-depth coverage about the subject himself. Could not corroborate "advisor to the Prime Minister of Thailand" with any mention in Thai sources, using multiple spellings in Thai. That said, the bulk of his work was pre-internet, so this is not conclusive. --Paul_012 (talk) 04:23, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Just another "advisor." Just another poorly sourced text. Just another promotional brochure. Just another article created by someone banned from Wikipedia for engaging in spam. Ho hum. -The Gnome (talk) 19:27, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
