    About this ebook

    This text is loosely based on true events, though some of the names have been changed to protect the innocent, and not-so-innocent. The authors took a boatload of poetic liberty writing the following fictitious dialogues. When first written, the book tried to disguise that it was a parody of Thaksin Shinawatre, Thailand’s PM at the turn of the century. Several years have gone by since Thaksin and his family fled Thailand, so it’s probably not as currently risky, to write satire about him. One can never be too sure, though, because he’s had a long career peppered with slapping lawsuits left and right. Enjoy the book. Take it lightly.

    Ken Albertsen

    Ken is a .westward-moving guy. Started out in Denmark in 1952, then westward to Washington DC three years later. At age 22, Ken moved westward to northern California where he farmsteaded for 25 years. Then westward again at age age 47 to farmstead in northern Thailand. 20 years hence, and Ken is like whirled peas (world peace) leaving Thailand and landing on his feet, but where? Ken has over a dozen books showcased online - on as many topics, ranging from Tibetan Buddhism (Life Story of Milarepa) to diet (Fasting for Health and Highness), to history (Hong Kong, What if ....?) with a couple of sci-fi stories thrown in for good measure (Robon Take-Over and Mastodons on Mars). Additionally, Ken has written a novel (Lali's Passage), a humorous book (Buddha, Jesus and the Hippie), plus two memoirs. One is his auto-bio from age zero to 22 (C.I.A. Brat) and the most recent was written after serving time in a Thai prison on false charges (1 Pill = 28 Years). Ken will next release his first children's book titled: "Mabalo's Balloon." plus a crossword puzzle book and a dictionary of idioms. Ken has narrated two audio books, the latest: Himalayan Adventures features readings from the diaries of seven great explorers of the Himalayan region, five of whom did their explorations during the 19th century.
