13 October, 2563/2020 at 13:30 MCU: Phra Sophonvachirabhorn (Sawai Chotiko), Vice-Rector for Foreign Affairs, a representative of the Rector of MCU along with Asst. Prof. Dr. Phrakhru Sophonphutthisat, Vice-Rector for Relations and Propagation, administers, lecturers, staff, students and participants presided over a ceremony of Commemorative Merit Making & Meditating on the Passing away of the His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej, Rama 9 at the 48th Birthday of the Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn Conference Hall, Mahachulalongkornrajavidyalaya University, Ayutthaya.
In this occasional event, it is to remind us of H.M. King Bhumibol revered and adored by the peoples. He had earned the respect of the nation as well as international. He was the longest-reigning Sovereign in the world, King Bhumibol had been a guiding light and steadying hand for people. He led his people by the power of his personality, his warmth, and concern for their welfare (note the numerous Royal Projects instituted by the King) and, when needs are, by exercising his “three rights” the right to encourage, the right to be consulted and the right to warn! So it is by example that His Majesty had earned the respect and homage of everyone in Thailand.
His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej was born on 5 December 1927 at Cambridge, Massachusetts, U.S., and passed away on 13 October 2016 in Bangkok. He was the ninth king of the Chakkri dynasty.
