Promthep Cape lights up in memory of His Majesty
PHUKET: More than 20,000 people are estimated to have taken part in the historic candle-lit ceremony atop Promthep Cape on Saturday evening to commemorate the 30th day of national mourning since the passing of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej, which was announced on October 13.
At 6pm, Phuket Governor Chokchai Dejamornthan and local dignitaries led the public in singing the Royal Anthem accompanied by the 200-strong Phuket Symphonic Band while a flotilla of more than 50 Royal Thai Navy ships and other vessels decorated with lights and the Thai tricolor floated off the cape.
