Phleng Thai Sakon
''Phleng Thai sakon'' ( th, เพลงไทยสากล) is a Thai term translating roughly as "international-style Thai music". It refers to Thai music in which traditional elements are blended with the use of Western notation and instruments. In the narrow sense, the term refers to the early movement in which this style of music was popularized. This roughly corresponds to the first half of the twentieth century, until the 1950s, when the style was split along cultural lines between the rural '' luk thung'' and the urban ''luk krung''. In the wider sense, the term refers to all genres of Westernized Thai music (i.e. excluding folk and classical Thai), including '' luk thung'', ''luk krung'', ''phleng phuea chiwit'' and modern Thai pop (pop, luktung-pop, lukkwad-pop) and rock. As a genre, the most representative composer of ''phleng Thai sakon'' is Eua Sunthornsanan, who popularized the genre during the 1930s – 1940s.

Music Of Thailand
The music of Thailand reflects its geographic position at the intersection of China and India, and reflects trade routes that have historically included Africa, Greece and Rome. Traditional Thai musical instruments are varied and reflect ancient influence from far afield - including the ''klong thap'' and ''khim'' (Persian origin), the ''jakhe'' (Indian origin), the ''klong jin'' (Chinese origin), and the '' klong kaek'' (Indonesian origin). Though Thailand was never colonized by colonial powers, pop music and other forms of modern Asian, European and American music have become extremely influential. The two most popular styles of traditional Thai music are luk thung and mor lam; the latter in particular has close affinities with the music of Laos. Aside from the Thai, ethnic minorities such as the Lao, Lawa, Hmong, Akha, Khmer, Lisu, Karen and Lahu peoples have retained traditional musical forms. Traditional and folk music Classical music Thai classical music is syn ...

Thammasat University Massacre
The 6 October 1976 massacre, or the 6 October event ( th, เหตุการณ์ 6 ตุลา ) as it is known in Thailand, was a violent crackdown by Thai police and lynching by right-wing paramilitaries and bystanders against leftist protesters who had occupied Bangkok's Thammasat University and the adjacent Sanam Luang, on 6 October 1976. Prior to the massacre, thousands of leftists, including students, workers and others, had been holding ongoing demonstrations against the return of former dictator Thanom Kittikachorn to Thailand since mid-September. Official reports state that 46 were killed (on both sides) and 167 were wounded, while unofficial reports state that more than 100 demonstrators were killed. In the "Documentation of Oct 6" project, Thongchai Winichakul argued that official death toll should be 45, including 40 demonstrators and 5 perpetrators, because one demonstrator died in jail after the incident. In the aftermath of the events of 14 October 1973, th ...
