Merit-making activities at Siriraj hospital and Thai embassies

Doctors, nurses and other staff members of Siriraj hospital joined members of the public in paying respect to the late HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej on the first anniversary of his passing on Friday.

People of all walks of life – many of them who kept vigil at the hospital a year ago to pray for their beloved when he was given medical treatment at the hospital – gathered at the hospital since the morning to participate in activities organized by the hospital in remembrance of the late King.  Almost every inch of the space on the hospital ground was packed with people.

At exactly 3.52 pm, all the people there joined their countrymen throughout the country to observe 89-second silence in honor of the late King.
