A 6000 word teaser of The Death of a Thai Godfather. It is NOT a spoiler. It just gives enough detail to hopefully whet your appetite to read the full book of just over 100,000 words. Technically a work of fiction, the reader may recognise several scenes in the book which have an uncanny resemblance to observed actual mafia activities in Thailand. Real names are not used.
Under Thai law, there is no defence against a charge of libel or slander by claimimg you are writing or speaking the truth and can prove it. If a person can lose Face as a result of your words, you will be found guilty in a court of law.
Although Thailand is a constitutioal monarchy, it can appear quite feudal. Hierarchy is important to the Thai. Every Thai knows his or her place in the social order. They accept inequality and the rigid class structure, believing they will be born again in a better position if they do good deeds in this life. The
The rich man in his castle,
The poor man at his gate,
God made them, high or lowly,
And ordered their estate
The Death of a Thai Godfather traces a Thai mafia's family from its apparent humble origins to a powerful business conglomerate operating mainly in Thailand but also abroad. There are connections with France and Mexico.
We see how they deal with rivals and begin to understand that they are not unlike other businesses. The Parin family is extremely family oriented and, provided it is shown respect, will always support all members of their extended business family. The unrestricted violence portrayed in films is exaggerated
