December 10 is a public holiday in Thailand to commemorate Constitution Day. The history of Constitution Day goes back to 1932, when the country became a constitutional democracy.
FIRST CONSTITUTION
The transition from absolute monarchy to constitutional democracy began when King Prajadhipok, or Rama VII, agreed to a constitution to resolve the political unrest in 1932.
His Majesty the King signed the Temporary Charter for the Administration of Siam Act 1932 on June 27, 1932. The King then countersigned the Permanent Constitution of the Kingdom of Siam on December 10, 1932.
"I am willing to surrender the powers that I formerly exercised to the people as a whole, but I don’t agree to turn my powers over to any individual or any group in particular to use in an autocratic manner without heeding the real voice of the people,” His Majesty said.
