The year 1992 was the 211th year of the Rattanakosin Kingdom of Thailand. It was the 47th year of the reign of King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX), and is reckoned as the year 2535 in the Buddhist Era. It is most significantly the year which saw the events of Black May, a pivotal moment in Thailand's political history. 1992 was designated 'Thai Women's Tourist Year' by the government, in an effort to "promote the status of Thai women".^[1]
