Sydebolle Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Interesting; here history is twisted. What I learnt was that King Chulalongkorn had the first radio station installed in 1911 - after returning from his second trip to Europe. Radio Thailand - owned by the National Broadcasting Services of Thailand - was launched shortly before WW2 in 1938. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
