The patriarch of the incredibly influential Persian-Thai Bunnag family served famously under both Kings Mongkut and Chulalongkorn as high respected political advisor, Minister of Defence, Chancellor of the Armed Forces, and Regent for a couple of years during Chulalonkorn's youthful [not of age yet] reign....
