Why Thai Flags At Half Mast For The Last Week?

Featured Replies

Topic says it all.

I was thinking maybe chopper crashes.

I think HM King sister passed away recently.

Thanks

Maybe this mourning?

Not a sister of the King, but on July 27th:

"HRH Princess Bejraratana, the only child of King Vajiravudh, Rama VI, and Queen Suvadhana, died yesterday afternoon at Siriraj Hospital aged 85."

Maybe, more than likely the reason. Thanks.

Although a Thai teacher I know insisted it was the wife of HMK Rama 6 who had died which, although just about feasible was highly unlikely as I pointed out.

My wife tells me that it is indeed due to the passing of HRH Princess Bejraratana. I cannot recall seeing any Thai news or reports about this.
