Bangkok is one the 76 provinces of Thailand. Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Yuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Phiman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit is the full ceremonial name given by King Buddha Yodfa Chulaloke but it was edited by King Mongkut. This means "the city of angels, the great city, the eternal jewel city, the impregnable city of God Indra, the grand capital of the world endowed with nine precious gems, the happy city, abounding in an enormous Royal Palace that resembles the heavenly abode where reigns the reincarnated god, a city given by Indra and built by Vishnukarma."
This is the flag of Bangkok. I tried searching on google if the flag has meaning.
Bangkok has a tropical wet and dry climate. This means that is the same as the Philippines. Bangkok is a big province because it has 50 districts in it. Bangkok though is considered by others as a city since it is the largest urban area in Thailand. Missionaries who would go here wont have a hard time adjusting to this province or city if they are from Southeast Asia. We need to pray for the missionaries since the country's religion is Buddhism. The missionaries cannot directly share the gospel to them. They can only pray for them if the Thais are okay with it. We should pray for the missionaries there and the future missionaries.

Let's go to Bangkok then! It may not be hard to adjust but it's hard to share the Gospel. Not because you'll be imprisoned or persecuted but because they are spiritually callous.
People there are firm in their faith especially the ones who believe in Buddha.
