03 JULY 2018 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A shop keeper in Bobae Market in Bangkok inventories yellow shirts that say "Long Live the King." The birthday of King Maha Vajiralongkorn Bodindradebayavarangkun, Rama X, is 28 July. The King, the only son of Thailand's late King Bhumibol Adulyadej, became the King of Thailand in 2016 after the death of his father. King Vajiralongkorn was born on 28 July 1952, a Monday. In Thai culture each day of the week has a color, and yellow is the color is associated with Monday, so people wear yellow for the month before his birthday to honor His Majesty. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
