‘Dr. New’ hits the face of ‘Somsak Jiam’ asserting that ‘Wat Phra Kaew’ is under the care of Mr. Therefore, the Department of Fine Arts does not need to take care of it again and again. This is the source of the reason why it does not need to be registered as an ‘ancient site’, so it will be protected under section 32.

March 31, 2023 – Dr. Suphanat Apinyan or Dr New, researcher under the MAST Center and Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, University of Arkansas, USA. Post a message on Facebook about Wat Phra Kaew being an ancient site or not? The content is as follows:

considering that “The Grand Palace” or “Wat Phra Kaew” is an ancient site or not. It is necessary to refer to the relevant key laws. According to the National Monuments, Antiquities, Art Objects and Museums Act, 1961, as amended by the National Monuments, Antiquities, Art Objects and Museums Act (No. 2), 1992.

Section 4 states that “monuments” means property that cannot be moved, by age or by the nature of the construction. or by evidence of the history of that property Useful in the arts of history or archaeology, including places that are archaeological sites Historic sites and historic parks as well.

Therefore, the meaning of the word “ancient site” is not limited to registration or non-registration only. But depending on whether the immovable property falls within the scope of Article 4 or not, if so, it will be a monument by default. Being a world-class tourist destination, it is definitely a historical site .

Incidentally, the benefits of registration are listed in Section 11. Ancient sites already registered Although it is a historic site with a legal owner or occupier. the Director General shall have the power to order a competent officer or any person to make repairs or to do in any way whatsoever that is restored or maintained to maintain its original condition but the owner or occupier must be notified in written first

But the “Grand Palace” or “Wat Phra Kaew” is already under the care of the Royal Household Bureau. Therefore, the Department of Fine Arts does not need to take care of unnecessary This is the source of the case that does not need to be registered. “The Grand Palace” or “Wat Phra Kaew” is an ancient site to be under the care of the Department of Fine Arts.

when it is like this “The Grand Palace” or “Wat Phra Kaew” would be protected under section 32. Anyone who invades ancient sites or damages ancient sites, destroys, devalues ​​or renders ancient sites useless Imprisonment for a period not exceeding 7 years or a fine not exceeding 700,000 baht or both. But if it is done to the ancient sites that are already registered The offender is liable to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 10 years or a fine not exceeding 1,000,000 baht, or both.

Obviously, even Article 32 has identified the two unregistered ancient sites. as well as registered ancient sites So, the distortion of those three finger cult network “The Grand Palace” or “Wat Phra Kaew” is not an ancient site because it is not registered. Therefore, it is a distortion to use stupid people in the country. To commit a crime and be imprisoned instead of a mean person outside the country like Somsak Jiam
