    60th anniversary of the accession of Bhumibol Adulyadej

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia    

                                                                       

    The King and Queen appear on the balcony of Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall in Royal Plaza, Bangkok on June 9, 2006, marking 60 years since the king's accession to the throne.

    The 60th anniversary celebrations of King Bhumibol Adulyadej's accession to the throne of Thailand are being held throughout 2006 to great pomp and circumstance.

    Events got under way in April, with rehearsals for a procession of royal barges on the Chao Phraya River, involving 52 royal barges and 2,082 oarsmen. Several rehearsals were held, leading up to the actual ceremony on June 12 that was attended by the King and Queen and royals from 25 countries.

    There are also fireworks displays, banquets, art and photographic exhibitions, performances of dance and music as well as the production of Mahajanaka, a story written by the King and adapted into a musical theatre work. Virtually every event in the Kingdom at this time is somehow tied into the 60th anniversary celebration.

    The wearing of royal-yellow T-shirts to celebrate the occasion is de rigueur, and as the main celebration period of June 9-13 approached, shirts bearing the special emblem for the celebration rapidly sold out. The Commerce Ministry ordered another 500,000 to meet demand. In the weeks that followed the celebration, many people still wore their yellow shirts.

    Also popular are yellow rubber bracelets, similar to the Livestrong wristbands, that say "We ขพ the King."

    Photographs of the ceremonies are also popular. The Royal Household Bureau has set up a photo lab specifically to fill orders for official images, and on Bangkok's streets there are vendors selling copies of the photos of the king and the visiting royals. [1] Also, newspapers such as the Bangkok Post and The Nation report brisk sales of commemorative publications.

         

                                                                 

     

     

     

     

     

    Special emblem                                              

     

    The emblem for the 60th Anniversary Celebration of His Majesty the King's Accession to the Throne.

    A special emblem for the 60th anniversary was designed by Somchai Supalakumpaiporn, an artist in the Royal Household's Fine Arts Department. It was chosen by the king from 12 designs that were submitted from four of the department's artists.

    There are several symbols in the emblem. The centerpiece is an abbreviation of the king's name in golden yellow, the color of Monday, his day of birth. The abbreviation is set on a blue background, which is the color of the monarchy. It is encircled with diamonds, which symbolize wise men, important authors, craftsmen, elephants, graceful women, soldiers and courtiers who serve the monarch.

    The Royal Cipher is depicted on a throne and surmounted by a crown. On the sides are a sword and a yak's tail whisk. Under the throne is a pair of slippers. These five objects are used in coronation ceremonies, and are the same as those used in the king's coronation in 1946.

    The bottom of the emblem features a pink ribbon trimmed with a gold inscription, "The Sixieth Anniversary Celebration of His Majesty the King's Accession to the Throne BE 2549." The two ends of the ribbon are held by the monkey god Hanuman, Phra Ram's vehicle in the Ramayana, and a garuda, the Hindu god Vishnu's vehicle. The green and gold colors in the background represent the fertility of the land. [

     

     

     

     

    Special holiday

    On June 9, a special national holiday, hundreds of thousands of people wearing royal-yellow T-shirts and waving royal-yellow flags packed Royal Plaza. Many had camped out overnight, hoping to glimpse the monarch.

    At 10:11 am, the King and Queen and other members of the royal family arrived at the Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall to pay homage to past Siamese kings:

    The crowd gave a deafening cheer of "Long Live the King".

    The crowd erupted into cheers again when the King appeared at 11:24 am on the balcony, marking the third time during his reign that he has appeared there to greet the people. The Royal Anthem was sung. The King received blessings from Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn, who read a statement on behalf of the royal family. Caretaker prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, and the presidents of the Senate and the Supreme Court also read statements of well wishes.

     

    The King then made a brief speech, in which he stated in part:

    กฐI am thankful for the well-wishers and the way they have acted in unison. I feel heartened by unity and would like to remind all about some underlying principles to guide Thai citizens in joining together to preserve and develop their country to new heights of prosperity. First, everyone should show kindness and compassion to ensure the mental and physical well being ofoneanother. Second, people should strive to cooperate for the mutual benefit of oneself, others and the country. Third, everyone should uphold honesty and observe rules and traditions with impartiality. Fourth, everyone should adhere to righteous thinking and act reasonably. If Thai citizens think and act in an agreeable and constructive manner, then the country will surely thrive.กฑ
