Happy New Year, everyone! That is using the western calendar.

Thai new year isn’t until April 15th. The country changed its

name back in 1932 from Siam to Thailand. It is a monarchy just

like Britain whereas the king and queen do not have true

powers. The B.E. in the year stands for Buddhist Era,

supposedly when Buddha was born in 543 B.C. Which later they

adopted the western calendar either in the late 1800’s or early

1900’s. I just wanted to give you a little history of these years so it won’t sound so crazy or confusing.

I myself was born in Thailand in 2515 B.E./1972 A.D. and now reside in the U.S.A., married and have 3 children. My personal life will inspire some and make others despaired. This blog will give me the opportunity to express my views and opinions about our world and maybe give some useful solutions and ideas. Research on the law of Absolute Right. Also, give a little sneak peek inside my empire ie; Thai cooking, gardening, technical issues, reviews, news, secrets… to name a few topics. There are no niche here or gimmicks. Just tons of info/knowledge from my reality and I hope maybe to monetize a little from it or not. New Siam (New Thai), authored by my pen name Thainado. Cyberspace persona and a real human. Play hard and be good to one another. Live long and prosper!

The flag of the Kingdom of Thailand shows five horizontal stripes in the colors red, white, blue, white and red, with the middle blue stripe being twice as wide as each of the other four. The three colors red-white-blue stand for nation-religion-king, an unofficial motto of Thailand^. The flag was adopted on 28 September 1917, according to the royal decree about the flag in that year. The Thai name for the flag is ธงไตรรงค์ (Thong Trairong), which simply means tricolor flag.
