Bangkok International Motor EXPO 2007

This year’s concept is about future vehicles. On this fast revolving planet many phenomena happen, but only some can so stun the world as to almost stop it. Futuristic technologies that car makers apply to vehicles today and plan to incorporate in future models are undeniably some of the world-stunning phenomena, because they are filled with miracles created by the brains of automotive engineers.


(BUGATTI EB 16.4 VEYRON)


About this year’s highlight, There was a car name BUGATTI EB 16.4 VEYRON, it’s a fastest car in the world, sport car(Super car) and it had a highest price in this Motor EXPO about 160,000,000 Baht more than any car.



When I saw advertise of this Motor EXPO in the television that it made me interest because I have a plan to buy a car in the future when I graduate from ABAC.So that when I have an opportunity that I persuaded my friends name Nic, Bee, Poy, Pee, Taa, Dutch to join with me. Last Friday, when we finished a class(Economic Subject) that we have consulted a plan of journey to this Motor EXPO. It’s a far from ABAC, at IMPACT Muang Thong Thani, Nontaburi province. Finally, we determined to go by my friend’s car, Nic. During the journey to IMPACT that we didn’t know a map so that it made us to take the wrong way, we have losed a many time. However, we can do it because we saw a signboard of traffic every time. When we arrived, we went to buy a ticket, the ticket that had a price 80 Baht/ a person. At the same time that there was a stranger gave three ticket to us, it made us very amazed however, we thank to him may be I thought him received a free ticket from anywhere. After that, we went to inside the area, at a first time that I felt surprised because I thought this Bangkok International Motor EXPO 2007 that didn’t have a people but there were many people and reporter inside the area, this Motor EXPO had three halls(Challenger) including, many Booths from Thai company and foreign. We went to hall three, inside the hall had many the mother car company from around the world such as, Japan, Germany, USA, France etc but didn’t have from Thai because Thai didn’t have own brand so that Thai must to import. We took many photo from every car Booth and Pretty girls. For me that I interested to Honda Booth because there were many beautiful car(New Honda accord) so didn’t have open to sell in Thailand, it’s import from Japan, I asked for more information from officer. After we walked around the area that we came back to ABAC in the evening because we have a class at 17.00 o’clock.

Before the King’s 80th Birthday Anniversary begin that many Thai people would to buy the yellow shirt that have the Royal Ceremonial emblem of the King on left hand side of the shirt. And every house that had to adorn with banners may be Thai people had adorn with poster of the king on their partition wall. Even though the tourist from foreign that they felt surprise with Thai people so their country didn’t have a phenomenon like Thailand, The reporters/journalists from around the world such as CNN, BBC, NHK, CCTV came back to Thailand for report this Celebrations ceremony. Before two days of this Celebrations that I and my friend had been to Ratchadumneon Road for take a photo of lantern side the road, in the area including , lantern, flower , banner, door façade etc. I felt impress the same as many people who came to take a photo like me.



When His Majesty The King'80th Birthday Anniversary began on Morning, December 5th that when I turn on the television every television and radio had prepared to relay a picture and sound from Ratchadumneon Road because a car of The King would pass this road to a grand public audience at the Chakri Maha Prasat. And then The King appeared on the car was pass the this road , at the same time that it made me to be pleased and cried. Although I could see about one or two second. After that His Majesty the King appeared at the front balcony, the mut det , of the Chakri Maha Prasat Throne Hall, Bangkok. The King greeted well-wishers on the occasion of his 80th birthday anniversary and gave the speech to the Government and Thai people for solve problem of the country. Thailand had now many problem about politics and The past of The Prime Minister, Taksin. Then The King was thank to Thai people and the Government for this Brithday cerebrations ceremony. On evening that The Government had arranged for ceremony of light a candle at Sanamlaung and firework.


The reasons why Thai people that love the King more than themselves may be I thought the King was hard work for his people by didn’t care himself such as The Royal Project etc. However, I could not to explain because it’s in my heart.

…WE LOVE THE KING...
