It was the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month and there was a two minute silence to mark those who died in World War II. Siam Rath reported that the monument was set up in appreciation for the help given by people in Ubon to those in the services. A memorial service has been held there for 15 years to mark the war dead and the special relationship of inhabitants of the city with the forces of many countries.

Popular Post JustAnotherFarang Posted November 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2020 I have the utmost respect for the veterans of WWII but Thailands involvement in WWII is not worthy of much merit to be perfectly honest. Like with most unedifying things in this country, best swept back under the carpet to keep up appearances. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we should be remembering solidiers who died in ALL conflicts. Just wondering whether the Germans and Japanese have a similar ceremony.
