01 DECEMBER 2016 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A man walks past a portrait of HRH Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn, who will soon be the new King of Thailand. Thailand's parliamentary body, the National Legislative Assembly, invited HRH Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn to be king following the death of the Crown Prince's father, Bhumibol Adulyadej, the Late King of Thailand. The invitation marked the formal beginning of the process of naming the new King, although Crown Prince Vajiralongkorn was the heir apparent and Bhumibol's appointed successor. Shops that sell royal paraphernalia are now selling new portraits of Crown Prince Vajiralongkorn which will be displayed alongside portraits of his late father. King Bhumipol died on Oct 13.
