Supporters celebrate Thailand's same-sex marriage bill in Bangkok

People gather in central Bangkok on Sept. 25, 2024 to celebrate the passage of the same-sex marriage law. The event featured a vibrant rainbow-colored canvas, with performers dancing and attendees signing their wishes on a white canvas. Thailand's King has endorsed a marriage equality bill passed by parliament earlier this year, officially making the kingdom the first country in Southeast Asia and third place in Asia to recognize marriages of same-sex couples. The royal endorsement was published in the official royal gazette late on September 24, meaning the bill will come into force in 120 days, which would be Jan 22, 2025.
