Journey through Thailand’s past: 1982-1986

10/5/2018

Comments

 
The fourth installment of our 10-part series describing newsworthy events in Thailand over the past 50 years begins with the year 1982. The April issue covered 1977-1981.
By Maxmilian Wechsler
1982 saw the opening of Central Plaza Lat Phrao shopping complex. The Thai Trade Union Congress was founded and Thammasat University appointed Professor Nongyao Chaise as its first female rector. The Communications Authority of Thailand announced the arrival of a new postal system.

January
• Thousands of Thai soldiers, police and rangers supported by planes and 
helicopters converged on the base of drug lord Khun Sa, dubbed the ‘Opium King’, at Ban Hin Taek in Chiang Rai province. The raid followed intelligence reports that a 200-mule opium caravan was sighted near the Thai-Burma border. It was the largest operation to date against the drug lord backed by Shan United
Army.

• The old Sunday market near Sanam Luang was replaced by a new weekend market near Chatuchak Park despite numerous protests by vendors against the relocation. The move had been planned since 1978 but was delayed by the protests. In the end a total of 979 vendors moved to the new location and began selling the same goods they had sold at Sanam Luang. Chatuchak Market director Witoonphant Wannachamrae said that the new market was much cleaner than the muddy mess at Sanam Luang.

​• In its first prisoner-exchange treaty with another country, Thailand agreed to swap inmates with the United States. The repatriated American prisoners would continue to serve sentences handed down by the Thai courts in the US and be eligible for parole or amnesty as granted by the US judicial system. As for Thai prisoners repatriated from the US, it was reported that they could be freed under an amnesty programme.

February
• Bangkok Bank, the largest commercial bank in Southeast Asia, opened its 32- storey headquarters on Silom Road. At 126 metres, it was the tallest building in Bangkok at the time. About 4,000 guests attended the opening ceremony hosted by the Bank chairman. Afterward a large Royal Garuda was unveiled. It took five years and more than one billion baht to construct the building.

March
• Six people were killed and more than 100 injured when southern communists detonated a car bomb that tore open a provincial hall in Surat Thani province. The powerful explosion flattened walls and destroyed the roof of the hall and damaged other buildings in the vicinity.

April
• The nation celebrated the 200th anniversary of the Chakri dynasty with Bangkok as the country’s capital. The Thai King and Queen and other members of the Royal Family led a flotilla of 51 royal barges down the Chao Phraya River. The event was witnessed by hundreds of thousands of people gathered on the banks of the river.

• Hand grenades were thrown into the ring during an event at crowded Lumpini Boxing Stadium on Rama IV Road. The target of the attack was apparently Klaew Thanikul, a Thai-Chinese entrepreneur and boxing promoter who allegedly was involved in gambling, prostitution, narcotics and human trafficking. Klaew was at the stadium but was unhurt. After the explosions his apparently drunken bodyguards opened fire on the crowd with submachine guns, killing four people and injuring 67. The grenades maimed the manager of a fighter on the card that night. Both his legs had to be amputated. Klaew became famous as the first promoter to successfully combine Muay Thai with the more lucrative Western style of boxing.

May
• The King, Queen and Princes Maha Chakri Sirindhorn presided over the ceremony to open Taksin Bridge, also known as Sathorn Bridge. After the ceremony the royals drove across the bridge in their motorcade. Construction of the bridge over the Chao Phraya River started in February 1979.

​• Around 500 Communist Party of Thailand (CPT) insurgents operating in rural areas of Loei, Phitsanulok and Phetchabun provinces surrendered to the Thai government.
CPT leaders said government forces had inflicted heavy casualties on them and more insurgents would surrender.
July
• Thailand formally recognised the anti-
Vietnamese Coalition Government of the
Democratic Kampuchea. The leaders of the Khmer People’s National Liberation Front, Prince Norodom Sihanouk and Prime Minister Son Sann, were honoured with a banquet by the Thai Minister of Foreign Affairs. It was the first trip by Prince Sihanouk to Thailand since 1953 after years of animosity.

• Prime Minister Prem Tinsulanonda escaped an assassination attempt when an M-72 rocket was fired at him. Prem was at the Lopburi Artillery Centre to unveil a statue of former Prime Minister Phibun Songkhram when the attack occurred. The rocket hit a tree and Prem was unharmed. Five soldiers were arrested and charged with attempted assassination and illegal possession of war weapons.

• A new government policy gave more freedom to students, the media and political factions, including communists, in order to encourage
and promote democratization and weaken the communist insurgency. The policy emphasized political strategies over military force and guaranteed freedom to former insurgents who had recently returned from the jungles.
August
• Another assassination attempt was made on PM Prem when a hand grenade was thrown into his house from a nearby army club. The explosion caused some structural damage to the building but no one was hurt. Asked about the attack, Prem said: “Anyone who faced such an experience would be shocked.”

September
• Mukdahan was designated as the 73rd Thai province. Before that this new northeastern province was a district of Nakhon Phanom province. The new governor of Mukdahan promised to focus on development and the suppression of insurgency and crime.

​December
• A powerful bomb exploded in the office of former Iraqi consul and prominent Thai businessman Lek Nana in Bangkok’s Chinatown. Police bomb disposal 
​expert Police Lieutenant Colonel Surat Sumanan was killed when he tried to defuse the bomb, which was placed in a briefcase. At least 20 other people were injured. Mr Nana was not in the office at the time. The blast damaged the building and the fire that followed damaged five other buildings. Nana’s office had formerly been the Iraqi consulate. The bombing was suspected to have been connected to the ongoing Iran-Iraq War. In the same year Mr Nana became secretary general of the Democrat Party under party leader Bhichai Rattakul.

1983 was the year the American School of Bangkok was founded, along with 
​entertainment giant GMM Grammy and
Land and Houses, a property development company. A special operations hostage rescue and counter-terrorism unit of the Royal Thai Police known as Naraesuan 261was launched.

January
• Three Thai men armed with knives boarded a Thai Airways plane and took seven passengers and four crew hostage at Lampang airport and demanded to be flown to Chiang Rai. They were told the plane had to be refueled in Chiang Mai. After the plane landed at Chiang Mai two pilots jumped onto the tarmac and two flight attendants and one passenger escaped through the rear door of the plane. The hijackers continued to hold the other passengers hostage and demanded a new plane and a new pilot, parachutes and 300,000 baht. As their deadline expired, the hijackers seized a pickup truck and drove away with the hostages, who were later released unharmed. Police arrested a man said to be the mastermind a week later. He said he wanted to hijack the plane because he had been unfairly treated by colleagues and wanted to prove he could do whatever he wanted.

• The first 3,500 barrels of oil from Sirikit oilfield at Lan Krabue in Kamphaeng Phet province arrived at the Bang Chak refinery in Bangkok in 19 tank carriages. Authorities said the locally produced and refined oil
would reduce Thailand’s reliance on imports and save hundreds of millions of baht in foreign exchange.

March
• The first ATM machine in Thailand was installed by Siam Commercial Bank beginning a new era in personal banking in Thailand.

• It was revealed that famous moviestar Petchara Chaowarat was almost blind. She made dozens of movies during a career that spanned two
decades. Petchara suffered from cataracts caused by the glare from light reflectors in front of cameras. In 1960 she made her first
movie, Love Diary of Pimchawee, and
instantly became a major star.

• Parliament was surprisingly dissolved when PM Prem called for a general election to be held April 18. The election was called amid tensions over a divisive military-backed constitutional amendment that Parliament had rejected.
April
• In the general election three coalition partners won 221 of the 324 seats in the House of Representatives: Social Action Party led by MR Kukrit Pramoj won 93 seats;
Chart Thai Party of Major General Praman Adireksan won 72 seats and Democrat Party led by Bhichit Rattakul won 50 seats. After the election PM Prem announced he would quit politics but changed his mind and agreed to serve another term.
​• Under new legislation the age at
which it became mandatory to carry
a Thai ID card was reduced from 17
to 15. Under the new legislation, Thai
nationals between the ages of 15 and 70
were required to carry their ID cards
on them at all times. The fine for not
carrying ID was 200 baht and this was
also applied for not renewing the ID.
Any person carrying or trying to obtain
a counterfeit ID was liable to five years
imprisonment and a 100,000 baht fine.

• What was formerly one of the largest communist base in the country, Phu Hin Rong Kla (Loei/Phetchabun/Phitsanulok), became Thailand’s 48th national park in a ceremony presided over by Commander-in-Chief of the
Royal Thai Army General Arthit 
​Kamlang-ek.

The film, which was nominated for seven Academy Awards and won three, was shot entirely in Thailand in Bangkok, Phuket, Cha-am, Hua Hin, Phi Mai Historical Park and Khao Yai National
Park. The film is based on a New York Times reporter’s search for a Kampuchean friend and colleague who he last saw in Phnom Penh as it was being overtaken by the Khmer
Rouge in 1975.

• An electric, two-seater car

80km on one battery charge, which
one engineer claimed took only 20
baht worth of electricity.

​• A government source said that Thailand’s strategic location in the region and ‘security loopholes’ were turning the country into a centre for espionage. The source said that some countries were using their embassies and offices for trade, tourism and airlines
for intelligence-gathering purposes. A
counter-intelligence report said that 52 Soviet spies, including KGB agents, had formed a network in Thailand. It was reported in September 1983 that 33 agents attached to the Soviet embassy on Sathorn Road, the Soviet
trade mission and Aeroflot had quietly left Thailand.

blaze.

than 20 years.
