5 references are from Youtube, 4 are from bogus sites like wikivisually, reference 1 doesn't open, 2 is an interview, 6 is like internet CV, Some of Forbes Thailand references don't open, and rest Forbes coverages have been repeated or are not published by core Forbes editorial team (taken from PR NEWS).

Regarding the YouTube links, the first and third ones are episodes from nationally broadcast terrestrial TV programmes. The second is produced by Forbes Thailand; the fourth is a self-published source, which should be fine for WP:ABOUTSELF matters. Only the last one is questionable. I have no idea what "bogus sites like wikivisually" is supposed to refer to. So two of the Forbes Thailand links are PR pieces. The other four are cover articles from the print magazine. The nom has forwarded no argument to disprove their reliability, nor those of the other sources. --Paul_012 (talk) 00:55, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete another in a long line of articles on non-notable businessmen. We need reliable sources, not youtube.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:08, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete There is an article on the Thai Wikipedia though. Basically all sources are in Thai. – Cupper 52 Discuss!
 * Neither of those are reasons to support deletion. --Paul_012 (talk) 00:23, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable sources, article uses advertisement-like tone. —  csc -1 20:38, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. No reason given to support deletion. The subject is clearly notable, given the amount of coverage in third-party reliable sources, which the nominator has not even claimed don't exist. I'd be happy to comment on the reliability of each source individually, but invalid arguments such as to delete an article because of links being dead and sources being in Thai are completely against policy. AfD is not for clean up.
 * Keep Clearly notable. Covered by Forbes Thailand articles as mentioned by Paul 012 above. Thailand top newspaper Thai Rath also has his name tagged in racing sport section with lots of news articles (click individual pictures and rows to go to published news piece) --Lerdsuwa (talk) 02:13, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Paul. Passes GNG. LucyLucy (talk) 05:15, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 05:05, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:HEY Now sufficiently sourced and compliant with GNG. Thanks to Paul 012 for finding new references. VocalIndia (talk) 08:41, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks but the article has not been edited at all. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:04, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep article is completely PROMO at present, *but* AfD is not cleanup ... (tone that follows is as polite as possible) content is irrelevant in determining notability, that is the point of BEFORE. Billionaire head of family business that is ranked 15th wealthiest in Thailand according to Forbes. Multiyear coverage in Thai and foreign RS. --Goldsztajn (talk) 11:17, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
