The people of Thailand have Father’s Day coincide with the birthday of their previous beloved King, Bhumibol Adulyadej, because he was the ‘father of Thailand.’ As of 2018, their father’s day is December 5th. This day is special for worshipping.

There are many traditions with Thailand’s Father’s Day. Because their king walked out of the hospital in a pink blazer in 2007, it is tradition to wear pink. Kids also give dads and grandfathers a Canna flower as it relates to masculinity.
