The ceremony, traditionally held when a Knight of the Order dies, took place Thursday in Stockholm while the royal cremation ceremony was being held in Bangkok. Some held pictures of the late King, while others held banknotes. Everyone there was overwhelmed by the occasion especially when realising the late King was being honoured by Sweden's monarch. She said that even though she hasn't lived in Thailand for years she is aware of what the late King did for his people. Thousands of Thais in other countries were also saying their farewells by prostrating themselves before portraits of the late King.
