Thai Song Lyrics
Pra thet thai rash luead nu'a chatxi'a thai
Pen pra cha rat pha thai kho'ng thai thuk suan
Yu dam khong wai dai thang muan
Duay thai luan mai rak sa mak khi
Thai ni rak sa ngop tae thu'ng rop mai klat
Ek ka raj ja mai hari krai khom khi
Sa la luead thuk yat pen chat p'hli
Tha loeng pra thet chat thai tha wi mi chai ch'yo
Thai National Anthem In Indonesian
Thailand unites the soul and body of the Thai tribe.
People's countries; owned Thai tribes in every way.
Independence has long been maintained
Because the Thai tribe is looking for and loving unity.
The Thai tribe loves peace;
"But in war we are not a coward."
National unity will not be threatened
Struggling to the last drop of blood
Keep the Thai country, keep the victory!
Regulation of the Thai National Anthem
The Thai government uses the national anthem to foster the spirit of nationalism. The only country in ASEAN that has never been colonized by Europe plays the Phleng Chat Thai twice a day in public.
The song was sung at the same time as the thailand flag ceremony at 08.00 and the lowering of the flag at 18.00. While the duration of the song lasted for 1 minute.
The country of a thousand pagodas has even implemented a bill regulation on the screening of its national anthem. Every Phleng Chat Thai is played by Thai people, it is mandatory to stop all activities and stand up. Vehicles passing on the highway must also stop.
The ratification of the Bill in 2007 initially caused many pros and cons. A number of politicians rejected the regulation. They assessed that the Flag Law could lead to chaos on the highway.
The regulation needs to be known by tourists who are visiting Thailand. Although tourists get some kind of action tolerance when the song is played, it would be better if they paid their respects.
In public places, the song will be heard from loudspeakers, which are usually in parks, roads, and MRT Stations. If there are local residents who are disrespectful, usually another resident will reprimand him.
The song was also sung in entertainment venues such as cinemas and music concerts. Residents who are caught not paying their respects will be punished accordingly. The screening of the song in theaters is usually accompanied by a slide show from Raja Rama X and his late father Rama IX.
