since I was a football player in 1970 the same year when Brazil conquered the Fifa
World Cup in Mexico.
Those area were Suan Thonburi Rom like as the botanic garden and park for the
public. There was also the Scout Camping.
Until February 12, 1988 the Thai government and also Bangkok Metropolitant
Administration got the idea of sports complex for the King Bhumiphol 60th birthday
anniversary stadium as called the Youth Sports Center Chalermprakait (Bang Mod).
After that on March 4, 1998 changed the name to Chalerm Prakait Bang Mod
Stadium with the general calling as Bang Mod Stadium upto now.
