- An elaborate coronation ceremony was held Saturday, May 4, 2019 in Thailand as the country crowned its new king, the first monarch it has seen in nearly seven decades.
King Maha Vajiralongkorn was officially crowned as a "divine monarch" after completing intricate Buddhist and Brahmin rituals and said in a speech that he would "reign with righteousness."
He was joined by new Queen Suthida after a surprise announcement three days before the coronation that he had married a fourth time.

Even though the king is not that respected amongst Thai people (he's a complete joke compared to his father before him), this is still a great once in a lifetime ceremony. It's great to see the ancient culture being preserved and brought back to life. There will be another ceremony soon in October, which the king will make a traditional trip on the Royal Barge along with other members of the Royal Family (each on a different barge). The tradition is shared in a few Southeast Asian countries and it has been passed down for 600 years. It will be another great spectacle.
Random Curry Puff why is the new king a joke? :)
Give him a chance to cement his own legacy before you call him a joke. It's honestly not his fault that his father overshadowed him for most of his life. He still will be a better man than idiots like Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un.
I'm sure he's better than those idiots. It's just the fact that he's been a king for almost 4 years before his coronation and he still had no evident work. I know it's no longer for modern monarchs to serve the nation but a lot of Thai people expect him to do more than just continuation of his father's projects. He's quite unfaithful, the queen is his 4th wife. I'm sure his 3 previous wives were wonderful women and I just can't understand why he rejected them. A king should be an example for his subjects, and look what he's done. I mean, he should act more mature and appropriate because he's no longer a crown prince. I'm not saying he's all bad, I did like the bike events he held over the years, it really did bring the people closer to the monarchy. I wish he would do something like that more, not just chilling in Germany. Only time will tell.
Nice
@@randomcurrypuff6237 Even if he does Donation and different works people will always bring his personal matters into play. Even after the Donation of 48 hectares of land to public schools Universities zoo development departments parks, Bringing AstraZeneca which most Thais got instead, Donating 2.8 billion to Hospital for COVID Equipments, Continuing Royal Projects etc. People will criticize him someone who became Head of the Monarch in his Retirement Age! You cannot Compare King Charles to his Mother!!! Also the Citizens never once asked which projects the Royal family can be a part of or help create certain things, but Criticize!!! Sure he has his own personal issues but when in performing Royal Duties he is in Formal Attire etc.!
I still love the late King Rama 9. This new king is way too different from his highly respected and well loved father. I hope the sacred water would have really washed off the womanizer and extravagance in him.
miggy elizondo 😂
He would be great king. He’s going to respect his second chance from Thai people. He just never really had any responsibilities in the past...
If you have a ton of money and respect a lot of hot women will try to come up to you let's be real.
Right at the beginning he messed up the procedure...so much for pure water
Only the Lord Jesus Christ can purify a sinful man!!
Culturally perspective, this is a very unique sight.
1. Delicate crafts show case. Normally Cartier or modern jewelry Business would take over while this ceremony show a very unique and delicate pieces of art.
2. Lost or endangered crafts are presented. For example flowers garlands, fresh harvest cravings details are crazy. These people have a special job and their job are known to those who participated.
3. With the whole ceremony base on Buddhism-Hinduism, historically this is spectacular. How they interpret the "Rama" figure and materialize this whole thing.
Amazing tradition of the world thousands or hundreds of years is now to be seen live. Thats just awesome. I love watching something like this. Its majestic
This ceremony is beautiful! Everything is so nice and beautiful.
When in the accient time.
The king like this will overtrow by another prince
And then a huge civil war will erupt
I believe he is the only son of King Rama 9. and the boy at the left end is he's son. 6:24
It's nice getting to know him, getting to know all about him, getting to like him, hoping he likes me too. All of the suddenly everything is breezy, bright and beautiful too. Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera!
It seems Thai Royals preserve traditional religious ceremony and that is really good. Japanese imperials had to give up most of religious part of the coronation ceremony as national ceremony because of the principle of separation of politics and religion.
Very traditional and religious one called Daijoh-Sai still exists and will be held this autumn along with national ceremony called Sokuirei but treated as very secret and private ceremony.
日野東資倶
Long live glorious Monarchy
Now that’s interesting because technically the imperial family is head of the religion
We should go back to the Shinto-Buddhist era of Japanese monarchy, not this secularized Shinto thing
That’s why Thailand is still stuck in the endless cycle of military coup. Japanese people are lucky to preserve the monarchical tradition and to maintain a functioning democratic government at the same time. Not many other nations have the same opportunity to achieve that.
Brant Liu I agree that Thailand is still stuck in the endless cycle. I wished Thailand to be like Japan one day
A rubbish king married Two wives Recently
Agreed
Four actually
Well I don't think one gets to choose a king
It's normal for Asian kings if you look history
@@commonhooman2885 - True, but we are not living in history when poor people were made slaves and became properties of rich people (Slave laws were created by these evil people called king) and that a king could call any girl he liked to come in for his sexual fun or have her family beheaded if she didn't comply. So what was OK in history is now classed as evil practice.
Now we have New Emperor of Japan 🇯🇵 and New King of Thailand 🇹🇭 👍🏻
Peach Peach what do you mean?👀
Froilan Crisostomo long live the emperor and empress of japan. Glory to Raiwa jidai.
I will tell you, As a Monarchist I say HM the King maybe not widely respect like HM the late King Rama IX. Because of his Incompetence past (and Womanising too) that is What I can tell.
😍
@@Dina-up2nc he can't tell because he would get imprisoned for the slightest criticism of the Thai king. Thailand is a military dictatureship and the king isn't doing very much against it atm.
Pure rajyabhikshek of indian hindu ❤❤
Beautiful!!
Peaceful country ...soon to be regional power...
All the best from India 🙏
Beautiful ceremony
Majestic ceremony. Hope this new King will be serve the people of Thailand well and bring the country to greater heights. Well wishes from a Singaporean.

Singapore should have a monarchy ;)
Long live the King of Siam !
@@marcuslance5883 Singaporeans are already proposing doing away with the post of President. Monarchy? No way.
Michael Lee
Monarchy brings glory and unity to a nation. Singapore is great already I know but it can be greater and more dignified with a glorious royal crown.
The British and the PAP wiped out the royal family, their descendents remain in name only, so as much as some would like it to be, me included, a monarchy won't happen in modern Singapore.
Abdul Shukor Hadi
By a Singapore esque Monarchy you mean a Malay Monarch right ?
I always love coronation😍😍😍
Long life The King
Beautiful tradition. May his reign be long, peaceful, and prosperous.
I like the words the King says about reining in a righteous way. A testimony to and a challenge for all leaders...
Ai ya ya Who live next to Thailand or at?
King Rama X is the Best King of Thailand and Siam. He stay in Thailand for help Thai people. He do everything for this country. He has only one queen and he love only her. Long live the King.
I am Malaysian, proud of Thais who conserving the Thai Kings installation tradition. Can only see the old footage of King Bhumibol coronation.
Now I can see this for hours. Very interesting ceremony. Proud of seeing Thais doing the best for their new King.
I don't care much of Kings previous life. He deserves his own private life like us as well.
Monarchy is dead
Thank you for you understood Thai cultures as well,,,
@@myman8336 You no have Monarchy,,,and you jealous, hahahaha,,,
@@user-qu7rb8vy1b well.the bathing procession was quite similar,most of our Sultans still practice this procession.and that's are not even shocking to us since we're inherit some of Hindu-Buddhist symbolic rituals.
Love from Punjab India..
Congratulation.
So beautiful tradition! Congratulations to Thailand New King!
I've seen the coronation of a king for the very first time... So wonderful programme... how discipline the people are
Love from India
Thanks
Are you Buddhist or hindoo? ?
But Thai traditional ceremony got Inspiration from India 🥰🇹🇭🇮🇳
The coronation of the King of Thailand Deserved praise And registered as the most tangible and intangible cultural heritage in the world of the UNESCO organization
@ipenipubodo No. This ceremony is influenced from Ancient Khmer 's ceremony.
This one Is just a ritual to ascend the throne in accordance with the rule of law in Thailand That has been around since the Ayutthaya and Rattanakosin periods, lasting over 700 years Which is difficult to find Thai people believe that one generation will receive only one visit. And is a manifestation of the old culture, which is the civilization of an independent nation There is stability that governs the king who has mercy on the people to be happy. Thai people do not want the world to think what you do for the world. You are not a superhero. But is the center of the minds of the whole Thai people to love and unite
There are many great things in this world. Praising yourself as best may not be a good idea. Other people may see it differently. How about let them give it to you instead of claiming it.
@@hannahezekiel9992Siam used to rule Cambodia before. Is there something like this in Cambodia? I've never seen it.😏
Lovely to see.
LONG LIVE THE KING MAHA VAJIRALONGKORN
HAPPY LONG HEALTHY LIFE AND THE LORD OF LOVE LIGHT AND PEACE KEEP AND BLESSED THE KING - FAMILY AND BEAUTIFUL THAILAND AND THE LOVELY PEOPLE. LOVE

I saw the samurai sword of Yamada Nagamasa, Japanese samurai warrior who was a soldier in the Ayutthaya period, 400 years ago. The musket that King Naresuan shot the Burmese commander. And the sword at King Naresuan in the Ayutthaya period to climb into the Burma Army camp

selamat untuk thailand 🇮🇩
terima kasih dr thailand
Very nice and impressive ceremony 🙏
what a beautiful ceremony it was
@ipenipubodo love your neighbor as yourself judge not as you have sin and are imperfect I love Buda too cuz I even got His back lil punk
@ipenipubodo you have become the oppresor don't you see who has made you judge and jury it's all fun and games till you are before God and he asks you the same stupid
@ipenipubodo How can it be stolen? The ceremony is a mix between Buddhist and Brahman-Hindu cultural practices, which was so widely spread throughout the region that it became a common cultural legacy. For centuries, the Thais have preserved, developed, and refined it to become a Thai cultural practice which make it different from those of other culture. In the Thai court, the Brahman priests play quite a major role in this kind of ceremony.
If you think the Javaka have it, are they still practicing it nowadays? Because you people did not preserve it, it has become extinct. Don't blame other people for it. Just blame yourself.
@ipenipubodo You must not born to be happy in this wold. Do you know how to be chilled?
@ipenipubodo It's nothing to do with emotionless. It's about a beautiful coronation and an impressive ancient culture to be seen in my life time. Then you bring up a genocide or a war history crap. You should bring it up someplace else and don't feel bad about it if I criticized your comments. No offense. Enjoy the show if not go some place else.
SO NICE TO SEE GRAND CEREMONY OF CROWN KING.
CULTURED TRADITIONAL 👏👏
Thanks all friend
The shape( sort of Pagoda) and symbolism of Thailand king's crown and hat are very impressive !!! Thanks.
What the hell are you talking about? Please stay with the topic~~
@@TheWorld4all Why ? Thai/Siam king's crown shape is so different from ones of European crowns and even other Asian crowns' ones.
@@user-fr6ms2bc7h Thai king's crown has the same shape as Cambodian king's crown.
The shape of the crown, to be exact, symbolizes Mount Meru, the holy mountain in Hindu myth. Thai, Cambodian and Lao kings all have this crown, called "Crown of Victory".
@@user-fr6ms2bc7h It is the same as Laos and Cambodia's, which were influenced by India. First, spreading from Cambodia to Laos, and then to Thailand.

Quite impressive for a national leader to devote himself to righteousness, his faith and the people. If only every nation's leader would have that lifestyle. What a very different world it would be.

Beautiful ceremony ... but the new king is a person without good values or good past behaviour. If past behaviour is a predictor of future actions then I feel bad for the Thai people. Make no mistake 99% of Thai people do not like the new King and actually despise him secretly. They will never tell you this in public because of the ridiculous medieval Thai law of Lese-Majeste. How can there be honesty, openess and accountability when people in the highest levels of power and wealth cannot be held accountable for their actions? It’s as if the egos of the powerful and rich are so fragile that any criticism or holding of accountability is some action that can do damage. Come on grow up Thai people and I am Thai by the way. Winter is coming to Thailand make no mistake. The richest monarch in the world yet so many Thais suffer from poverty and a lack of services. The environment is in a run down and degraded state. Corruption is rampant and yet they worship the lord of materialism and power. No one will know the truth about the Thai Royals because the truth is suppressed. Anyone with any interest in Thai history, culture, politics and power will understand that there are two sides to any story and yet the rich and powerful only want to perpetually present the golden side while the darkness festers.

wow. thailand king
We in Aceh miss our king back like Thailand 😢. Throw the democrazy to rubbish bin forever. Salute for Thailand peoples
I completely understand you bro. Many people in the world dont understand the importance, charm, and benefit of the monarchy system anymore. They have been globalized by the democrazy regime.
Sad that Some people (Mostly the so-called "New Generation") have turn to Republicanism and radical Socialism (and a few to Communism) because They think It will make them become "True Democracy" and make they life more "Convenient" (They wish a Universal state welfare)
Thailand is Constitutional Monarchy, meaning the King doesn't have the real power to govern. The King is only a symbol a head of state, a unifier for Thai people and Thailand. The real governance is from Thai Prime Minister who get elected which is a democracy. So Thailand is a democratic country
No King or Queen in this world hold absolute power... All powers have been given to Prime Minister who get elected thus all are democracy
Those people have claimed that the monarchy is "meddling with the election" or simply "inferior for democracy" and, they think having a president will eliminate those problems. What an idea…
