Senate Passes Landmark Bill Recognising Marriage Equality

At the start of June, thousands of LGBTQ+ revellers and activists held a parade through the streets of Bangkok and were joined by Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin, who wore a rainbow shirt to celebrate Pride Month.

The prime minister will open Government House to celebrate the passing of the bill. Its supporters will hold a Pride parade from Parliament to the office of the prime minister.
