I don't think you need to worry about this variant taking the
world by storm; clearly, it's intended to be of interest only to
people in Thailand - and possibly Cambodia - who are fond
of their own traditional version of Chess, but who might
also want to play something in between that and normal
international chess.
At least, with Magnus Carlsen being able to generate
"Fischer fear" in his opponents, the last World Chess
Championship did not involve an enormous number of
draws like its predecessor.
