In a display of solidarity, officials from various ministries donned vibrant purple T-shirts yesterday, standing united in support of HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn.
The gesture came in response to a recent alarming incident on a bustling Bangkok expressway, where two individuals from the Taluwang group recklessly honked and attempted to chase the princess’s motorcade.
Leading the charge at the revered Mangkorn Kamalawat Chinese temple in Chinatown, Palang Pracharath party leader General Prawit Wongsuwan, accompanied by Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Patcharawat Wongsuwan and other party members, stood alongside members of the Thai-Chinese community. Together, they paid homage to the temple deities, offering unwavering moral support to Princess Sirindhorn.
Minister Patcharawat and officials from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment further extended their well-wishes to the esteemed Princess in a solemn ceremony, echoing sentiments of solidarity and respect.
Simultaneously, a similar poignant ritual unfolded at the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security, underscoring the widespread outpouring of support and reverence for Princess Sirindhorn, reported Thai PBS World.
Responding to this spontaneous display of solidarity, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin emphasised Princess Sirindhorn’s tireless dedication to the people, asserting the paramount importance of security officials in safeguarding her well-being.
