National Emblem
The Thai national and royal
emblem is the Garuda, a mythical
half-bird half-human figure that adorns
King Bhumibol Adulyadejs sceptre
and royal standard. Many ministries
and departments have incorporated
the Garuda inio their insignias. Moreover,
the Garuda signifies "By Royal Appointment" and is awarded at the personal
discretion of His Majesty the King, a sign of royal approval to companies that have
rendered outstanding economic and
charitable services to Thailand.
Such an award is rarely bestowed and is considered a great honour.
