King hospitalised or just a rumour?

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

King hospitalised or just a rumour?

Post by sigmoid »

Andrew MacGregor Marshall, who is not always the most reliable source of information, has posted:

"⚠️ King Vajiralongkorn was rushed to intensive care at Siriraj Hospital a few days ago because of respiratory problems, according to several informed sources. They say the king was initially treated at Bangkok Hospital then transferred to Siriraj when his condition became serious. His current condition is not known."

Has anyone seen or heard anything that might support this claim?

More details:

King of Thailand ‘rushed to Intensive Care Unit’ with respiratory problems
By Charlie Proctor 13th May 2021

https://royalcentral.co.uk/asia/thailan ... ms-159924/
The 68-year-old monarch was admitted to ICU a few days ago after suffering from respiratory problems.

Andrew MacGregor Marshall, a journalist specialising in the activities of Thailand’s Royal Family, says The King’s condition is not understood to be life threatening.

There has been no official comment from the Thai Royal Household, with speculation becoming increasingly rampant on social media.

In my country at the funeral closest people to the deceased stand in the first row. So if he dies, his harem will be in the first row?
