Andrw McGregor Marshall--who wrote about Thai monarchy and was deported--

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_MacGregor_Marshall case was the "gun accident" death of later King Bhumipol's elder brother, Crown Prince Mahidol. I did not know about this, until I met a former Thai diplomat's daughter, living in the USA. Very sad. 5-2-2018

We have a saying for this in Burmese: What was written by hands has been erased by the feet."

Burmese and Thai think lower body parts like feet are not as worthy as the head.
