The Deputy Consul General and officials participated in a merit-making and alms-giving ceremony alongside the Thai community, which included offering alms to monks, listening to Buddhist chants, and offering lunch to the monks. In the afternoon, TCFAI hosted traditional Thai music and dance performances. Attendees also participated in the ceremonial bathing of the Buddha statue and monks, as well as the traditional water-pouring ceremony to pay respect and seek blessings from elders, in celebration of Songkran and Thai National Elderly Day.
