Devotion


One thing that you noticed as soon as you land in Thailand, is how devoted Thai people are to their king. Pictures of him was plastered all over Bangkok. Lots of people were wearing pink polo shirts with the royal crest. Turns out King Bhumibol was in seen in public wearing a pink suit and started a trend. Coming from a country that was under an oppressive dictator for decades, its refreshing to see a leader so genuinely loved by its people.
