On Friday, August 8, 2025, Assumption University of Thailand (AU) proudly celebrated the birthday anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, The Queen Mother, with solemn and respectful ceremonies held at both Suvarnabhumi and Hua Mak Campuses.
Held in advance of the national holiday on 12 August, the commemorative ceremonies were organized by the Office of Thai Art and Culture, Student Affairs, and brought together students, faculty, and staff to honor Her Majesty’s lifelong devotion to the Thai people.
Her Majesty Queen Sirikit is cherished as the “Mother of the Nation,” revered for her tireless humanitarian work, unwavering support for rural communities, and remarkable leadership as President of the Thai Red Cross Society. She has also played a pivotal role in reviving and preserving Thailand’s cultural arts, notably traditional weaving and the classical Khon performance. Her Support Foundation has empowered countless local artisans, transforming traditional craftsmanship into sustainable livelihoods and sources of national pride.
