Just to inform you that today is the day Thailand changed its name from Siam in May 11, 1949. “Thai” means “freedom” in the Thai language, so it’s a land of freedom. Though it the country name has been renamed more than 50 years ago, there are people who still prefer to call it as Siam, including me :p
