Commemoration of the deceased King Bhumibol November 6, 2016 on Dam Square in Amsterdam

Submitted by Ronald
Also in Pattaya:
on Saturday 19/11, from 18.00:20.30 pm to XNUMX:XNUMX pm.
The ceremony is in Thai and English.
Location: Beachroad from Central Festival towards Walking Street.
All visitors are requested to wear black clothing.
There are some speakers, prayers are said, the national anthem is sung and candles are burned.
Everyone is welcome: Thai and Farrang.
How beautiful is this…
My ex also makes our 7-year-old daughter in the cold for the king in black … .. she is going to buy special black clothes for it. Because it's being recorded and broadcasted somewhere. Enjoy watching.
Dear George,
Thai people do not go to this meeting because it may be broadcast, but out of respect for the king because he has meant a lot to Thailand for generations.
Rightly so that he is so loved and adored.
The sadness is genuine.
What could be better than sharing this with your compatriots, so far from home.
Of course you go in black to this commemoration of King Bhumibol.
Too bad George that you only talk about your ex and your daughter wearing black clothes and walking in the cold
George you show no respect.
You must know that the grief for the passing of the king must be respectful.
You can still learn a lot from your ex, but you are probably not open to this.
I wish all Thai people a nice day
Well said Bram, and absolutely correct!
I live in Thailand and have seen with my own eyes the heartfelt grief and pain of the Thais at the death of their beloved king. The respect is great and makes a deep impression. Many wear black or white. Tourists also show respect by wearing a black ribbon. And you also get reactions to that in shops or other places: “thank you for showing respect to my king!”
I will definitely go to the commemoration in Pattaya on 19/11 to show respect together with many Thais and expats. I could also have chosen to lie on the beach or go to the pub. But this is much more important.
I also regret the attitude of George who meows that his ex's daughter "has to" go to the memorial. For a Thai it is not a question of having to, but of wanting to be there!!!
My wife Jeab has also gone to Dam Square to pay their last respects to their King.
Rain or no rain, she and her friends don't care.
I ask myself if I would do the same if our King or Queen had passed away and I went to Bangkok to attend a memorial service.
I don't always think highly of the Thai people, but in this case I have deep respect for them.
Hope the rain is good for them.
Regards, Ron Pattaya.
My husband went today with a lot of Thai friends was a great turnout with a lot of respect.
