Pink, Blue, And Yellow means royalty of king in Thailand:
Colours Worn to Display Loyalty to the Monarchy
Overriding
these colours associated with the planets are the birth colours of the
royals, the favourites being yellow for HM King Bhumibol, blue for HM
Queen Sirikit and pink for King Chulalongkorn.
On the King’s birthday, December 5th, most people will try and wear
yellow during the day and of course, they will have the yellow flag
flying wherever they can.
Ditto for Queen Sirikit’s birthday on August 12th, when blue takes precedence.
Pink
became popular when the king left hospital last year after his illness,
looking frail in a bright pink blazer. Within hours, pink shirts were
on sale across the country and were being worn in their thousands to
show solidarity and to help the king’s recovery. Wearing pink, the Thais
said, would bring the king good fortune and good health, a sentiment
that still seems to rule as there are still days when the streets are a
sea of pink.
