Is there anything happening around town for Remembrance Day on Saturday?

 

 

23-year ret AF..... I'm going to the beach!

Asked the British legion the same but got no reply, shame but I can pay my respects in private.

There is a Remembrance Day ceremony at Kanchanaburi War Cemetery followed by a smaller ceremony at Chungkai War Cemetery, also in Kanchanaburi. On Sunday 12th November there is a ceremony within the confines of the British Embassy in Bangkok. So far as I know there is no commemoration in Pattaya mainly because the RBL and others tend to travel to Kanchanaburi and/or Bangkok where there are official places of remembrance and official ceremonies. I travel from the Korat area to Kanchanaburi every November and April for Remembrance and ANZAC Days. Many travel by personal transport from Pattaya but there is also a mini-bus I believe, organised by the RBL. You may have left it a bit late to arrange transport and attend the Kanchanaburi but you are welcome to the ceremony and various get-togethers if you would like to travel. I always spend a few days/nights in Kanchanaburi. It is well worth spending a few days there as there is a lot to see and do, particularly to do with the Thailand/Burma Railway where many prisoners of war died during it's construction. If you would like further information please get in touch.

 

Chris at the Anzac Bar in soi chaiyapoon,few doors down from The Den gentleman club,always has a service for Rememberance Day and all the other significant days in which OZ military served.

Thanks for the replies gents
