Who owns the 1932 Revolution memorial plaque? The question posed by deputy national police chief Pol Gen Srivara Ransibrahmanakul is indeed intriguing. Pol Gen Srivara is correct to assume that no single individual can own the memorial plaque. In refusing to accept the plaque as state property, are authorities also denying a place in history for the 1932 Revolution? It's quite astonishing that a seemingly simple case of a missing memorial plaque has unleashed such complicated feelings toward our own past.
