    Bhumibol Adulyadej, the king of Thailand. The current king of Thailand, Bhumibol Adulyadej, is the longest-reigning monarch in the world today, as well as Thailand's longest-reigning king ever. The beloved king's common name is pronounced "POO- mee-pohn uh-DOON-ja-deht"; his throne name is Rama IX. Early Life: Born a second son, and with his birth taking place outside of Thailand, Bhumibol Adulyadej was never meant to rule. His reign came about through a mysterious act of violence. Since then, the King has been a calm presence at the center of Thailand's stormy political life. On December 5, 1927, a Thai princess gave birth to a son named Bhumibol Adulyadej ("Strength of the Land, Incomparable Power") in a Cambridge, Massachusetts hospital. The family was in the United States because the child's father, Prince Mahidol, Mysterious Succession: was studying for a Public Health certificate at On June 9, 1946, King Ananda Mahidol died Harvard University.

  • Thai Scholars Fellowship Fund Endowment: the Legacy of Prince Mahidol and His Family
    Thai Scholars Fellowship Fund Endowment: The Legacy of Prince Mahidol and His Family In December 2017, the Harvard University T.H. Chan School of Public Health (HSPH) established a Thai Scholars Fellowship Fund in honor of King Bhumibol Adulyadej and Prince Mahidol of Songkla. HSPH established this in conjunction with the Thai Physicians Association of America (TPAA) and the King of Thailand Birthplace Foundation (KTBF). The goal is to raise $1.5 million (Bt45.5 million) to create an endowed fund that will support Thai students, doctors, nurses, and public health professionals from Thailand to study at HSPH. Upon returning to Thailand, these scholars can then play major roles in advancing Thailand’s public health and medicine. The Thai Scholars Fellowship Fund continues the altruistic spirit of Prince Mahidol who, a century ago, donated his personal funds (Bt200,000) to establish the Medical Science Scholarship for students seeking higher education in science at Chulalongkorn University. Additionally, Prince Mahidol also generously donated $1,000 to the Harvard Endowment Fund. In 2016, we held a symposium at HSPH headlining, “A Century of Progress in Public Health and Medicine in Thailand,” as a campaign to continue Prince Mahidol’s legacy. The Thai Scholars Fellowship Fund is partially endowed, and thus, already available to sponsor Thai students at HSPH. Pear Pongsachareonnont, M.D. is the first recipient of the Thai Scholars Fellowship Fund. In the Fall 2019, Dr. Pear began a 2-year Masters of Public Health program with a focus on epidemiology (via online/on-campus program). She feels deeply honored and grateful to have the opportunity to follow in Prince Mahidol’s footsteps, and she hopes to fulfill his vision of improving the collective health of the Thai people.

  • Royal Roots of Simmons : the Princess Mother of Thailand
    Royal roots of Simmons : the Princess Mother of Thailand Royal roots of Simmons: the Princess Mother of Thailand simmonsvoice / October 19, 2016 By Ellen Garnett Staff Writer Last week, the King of Thailand, Bhumibol Adulyadej, passed away after his 70-year reign. Simmons College joins Thailand in mourning the loss of King Adulyadej, whose mother was an alumna of Simmons. The Princess Mother of Thailand studied healthcare, nutrition, chemistry, and childcare between 1921 and 1927. Although she never graduated from Simmons, Princess Srinagarindra née Sangwan Talapat received an Honorary Degree from Simmons in 1989 for her humanitarian work in Thailand, which focused on improving access to education and health care. She is especially known for having established the Flying Doctors Foundation, an organization that provided medical services to remote villages by helicopter. According to the Simmons College Archives, this was the only honorary degree that the Princess Mother ever accepted. Before she was the Princess Mother, Sangwan Talapat was a commoner. She came to the U.S. in 1918 after finishing nursing school in Siam (later renamed Thailand) at the age of 17.

  • Thai Royal Burial Sites by Scott Mehl
    Thai Royal Burial Sites by Scott Mehl House of Chakri (1782-present) The funeral and cremation rituals of the Thai royals are perhaps some of the most spectacular displays. Steeped in tradition and driven by their Buddhist beliefs, the ceremonies take place over six days, usually months after the actual death. The primary reason for the delay is the amount of work involved in building and creating the ceremonial funeral pyre, on which the remains are cremated. These ceremonies take place on the Sanam Luang, a large open field and park, just north of the Grand Palace complex. Once the cremation ceremonies are finished, the ashes are taken to the Grand Palace briefly, before being enshrined within a Buddhist temple. The Kings are traditionally enshrined in the base of a Buddha statue within one of the temples. The ashes of other members of the royal family are typical housed in smaller memorials or monuments at the Royal Cemetery at Wat Ratchabophit. The most recent burial was that of Princess Bejaratana, held in April 2012. For detailed information about the traditions and details about the royal cremation, I suggest the following links: Ancient Traditions for Royal Cremations Royal Cremation Ceremony of HRH Princess Galyani Vadhana Royal Cemetery Royal Cemetery Rama I King Buddha Yodfa Chulaloke reigned April 6 1782 – September 7 1809 King Rama I was born March 20 1736, in the Kingdom of Ayutthaya. He was a prominent military leader under King Taksin, and this enabled him to crown himself the first King of Siam (now Thailand) in 1782, establishing the Chakri Dynasty which remains on the throne today.
