On Saturday, a ceremony honoring the 33 times since the 1992 Black May events, which saw considerable crime against city demonstrators, and the fall of the military-linked state that had come to power in the revolution in 1991, took place in Bangkok.
Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt laid a wreath at the Suan Santiporn monument on Ratchadamnoen Road and stated that the annual compliance aims to preserve the instructions from those who happily fought for freedom and righteousness.
He compared the lives lost in May 1992 to those who had committed suicide, demonstrating how the courage of those who do what is right can cause real change, even at their own expense.
The nature of those soldiers still lives, he continued, 33 years later.
Mr. Chadchart reaffirmed that their sacrifices are strong motivators for Thai society that values esteem for the people’s will and justice.
Thin Muhamad Noor Matha, the speaker of the House of Representatives, Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut, the party’s head, Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut, and Somkid Chueakong, the deputy secretary-general of the Prime Minister’s Office, were other notable politicians who showed up at the occasion.
The military-led government’s 1992 aggressive assault on protesters is referenced in Black May. The government violently suppressed the demonstrations under the command of coup-maker and prime minister Gen Suchinda Kraprayoon.
Although it is believed that the actual death toll was higher, official statistics only reported 44 incidents, 728 wounds, and 38 missing.
