The National Anthem of Thailand, known as "Phleng Chat," was officially adopted in 1932. The anthem is played during important national ceremonies and events, symbolizing the unity and pride of the Thai people. Its lyrics emphasize love for the nation, the monarchy, and the people. The music for the anthem was composed by Phra Chenduriyang, while the lyrics were written by Luang Saranupraphan. The anthem is typically played at 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. daily, prompting citizens to stand in respect. This practice reinforces national identity and collective spirit among the Thai population.
