Mourners queue to sign a condolence book to pay their respects to the late monarch at Sala Sahathai Samakhom Pavilion, inside the Grand Palace compound.

 

Tradition dominates grieving process.

 

BANGKOK: -- YESTERDAY was the seventh day since His Majesty’s passing, yet the number of black-clad mourners heading to Sanam Luang to say goodbye was still in the tens of thousands. However, yesterday they were coming for a specific purpose. 


After closely observing and speaking to dozens of mourners over the past seven days, since the moment of the nation’s tragic loss, I noticed that the mourners were bustling around more than solely grieving in silence. 


Compared to other days, yesterday at Sanam Luang saw a bigger crowd as more people arrived to pay their respects and make merit for the late King.
