Visitors walk towards the royal crematorium at Sanam Luang in Bangkok on Thursday, when it was first opened to the public. Stricter rules are now being imposed and access to the royal crematorium will be more limited than originally intended, army chief Chalermchai Sittisad said on Friday. "Initially the royal crematorium was opened through to the second floor because the problem was unexpected," Gen Chalermchai said. About 29,000 people visited the royal crematorium on Thursday. He also gave an assurance that no VIPs would be allowed to jump queues ahead of visitors at the crematorium.
