I have written literally hundreds of blogs now about Thailand. Sometimes it can be difficult to find some of the good posts from the past. To make it easier, we have started to copy some of the better blogs to their own websites. The following websites always have their content posted first here at thai-blogs.com.
When I am not travelling or writing blogs, I am working on some of these websites from the Paknam Web Network:

Nov 25

Anniversary of King Rama VI's Death

By Richard Barrow

Wednesday 25th November, 2009 | 80 words | Category: Samut Prakan | Send feedback »

Today marks the anniversary of the death of King Rama VI on November 25, 1925. As this King is regarded as the “Father of Thai Scouting”, schools all over the country took part in a special ceremony to celebrate his life and to remember the day he died. Mr. Surachai Kanasa, the Governor of Samut Prakan, presided over the ceremony at the City Hall Plaza. He is seen here laying a wreath at the foot of a statue of King Rama VI.
