Prince Thammathibet Chaiyachet Suriyawong (Thai: เจ้าฟ้าธรรมธิเบศไชยเชษฐ์สุริยวงศ์), also titled Prince Senaphithak (Thai: เจ้าฟ้าเสนาพิทักษ์) and known poetically as Prince Narathibet (Thai: เจ้าฟ้านราธิเบศร์), or more commonly Prince Kung (Thai: เจ้าฟ้ากุ้ง; 1715–1755), served as Viceroy (Front Palace) of the Ayutthaya Kingdom from 1741 to 1755.
