Are they going to burn it?

Maeby all the Thai city's will follow that example as new tourists attraction.

I guess not every one can fit into the grounds in Bangkok so this is why

the replica is being built so more people can attend there. Just shows how much

the late King was loved by the people of Thailand.

Geezer

We were not able to get to BKK to pay our respects to the King, hopefully this will be physically available as a focal point for our prayers.

As usual garbage reporting by the media. Why the secret on its location.
