Thai National Anthem
The national anthem of Thailand (Thai: เพลงชาติไทย, romanized: Phleng Chāt Thai, Thai pronunciation: [pʰlēːŋ t͡ɕʰâːt̚ tʰāj]) is a national song representing Thailand, created in 1932. Composed in the same year by Phra Chenduriyang, it originally had no lyrics (words). Later that year, words by Khun Wichitmatra were adopted; two years later, the lyrics were changed by Chan Khamvilai. Then in 1939, when the country's name was changed from "Siam" to "Thailand", the lyrics written by Luang Saranupraphan were made official after winning a competition, and this has since remained the national anthem today.[1][2]
