The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration will ask His Majesty the King to preside over the opening of the newly renovated Sanam Luang park on Aug 9, Bangkok deputy governor Thirachon Manomaipiboon said on Monday.
He said a grand religious ceremony to mark the event will be organised to also celebrate His Majesty the King's 84th birthday.Since Sanam Luang is a historical site assigned for royal ceremonies, the city administration will ask His Majesty to preside over the opening ceremony.
This was agreed at a meeting chaired by Bangkok governor MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra.
Mr Thirachon said that the meeting also assigned the Public Works Department to facilitate the construction of edifices for the royal cremation of HRH Princess Bejraratana.
The meeting also resolved to amend BMA regulations regarding use of Sanam Luang to allow people to use the ground for rest and recreation from 5am-10pm everyday, but sales of goods, parking and sleeping will be prohibited.
The BMA's Legal Affairs Department will draft the needed amendments to regulations concerning requests for use of Sanam Luang for various activities, he said.
