A day of the journeyt came, Agba and other horse boys went to the palace to see Saltan. In front of there was a thousands of the soldiers making a line and on the of the head of the line there is a Saltan a King of the Alabs road on the horse. Saltan led the hors boys and their horses join in the line then they started a march to the port. All of the people in they city bowed when Saltan and his soldiers go through the city. Agba thought that people didn't bow to show rispect to their King they bowed to protect them selves. They knew that people who didn't bow to King Salton would be killed by his brutal soldiers.
This chapter makes me think about leader ship. Thai King and King Saltan have completely different relationship between their nation. King Saltan ruled the country with millitary power.So people in his country afraid of him and all the people try to not concern with him. In Thai land King doesn't have power to control everything in the country but he still able to make big effect in the country by his word. I think thta's because he has a good relationship with his nation. When he was young he went around his country to help poor people and try to make better country. That's why every people in his country loves him and show great respect to him. So that he could make an effect to the country even though there is a laws and government.
To be a good leader the thing you need is not power. Reliance from the team member or nations is the thing you need. That's what I think about leadership

I agree with you that the king of Thailand can effect Thai people by words not by power. He is a very important person for all of us in Thailand. I also agree that to be a leader, one must not control the members by power but reliance.
It's also interesting that this type of influence is earned over a long period of time, right? I guess that's why some leaders resort to military power; they don't have the patience to earn influence through kindness.
