The Residence of the Thai Ambassador to the UAE turned into a temporary religious site as the Thai community in Abu Dhabi organized an activity to observe the Makha Bucha Day in the evening of Friday 14 February 2014.

Two senior monks from the Dubai Meditation centre were invited by the Thai community to lead prayers, preach Buddha’s lessons and biography to 60 Thais and their foreign relatives, before leading everyone on a curcular walk around Buddha statue, which is tradition for a holy Buddhist day.

The Ambassador’s Residence helped prepare the venue as well as refreshment for the participants. In addition, H.E. Warawudh Chuwiruch, his wife, staffs of the Royal Thai Embassy were present throughout the evening.
