June 9 is the 63rd anniversary of the accession to the throne of the King of Thailand, and I am flying the King’s 60th anniversary flag designed for that occasion.
Bhumibol Adulyadej (Thai: ภูมิพลอดุลยเดช) (born Monday 5 December 1927), is the current King and Head of the State of Thailand.
The Thai monarchy has been in continuous existence since the founding of the Kingdom of Sukhothai in 1238. The institution reached its current constitutional form in 1932 after a revolution, which ended the absolute monarchy. The monarchy's official residence is the Grand Palace in Bangkok, Thailand. However the present King spends most of his time at the Chitralada Palace (also in Bangkok) and the Klai Kangwon Villa in Hua Hin.
