PETALING JAYA: When a traveller goes from one place to another, he hopes that the name of the place will be short and easy to remember. If it's too long or has several words in it, that will be a hard taskYes, it's Bangkok in Thailand. And no, it is not this seven-letter word that the general public is accustomed to.
The phrase translates into, “Great city of devas , the residence of the holy Emerald Buddha, full of prosperity and everlasting beauty, adorned with nine precious gems, rich in immense royal palaces, heavenly abode built on Earth by Thao Sakka Thewarat Witsanukam for the reborn deities." Aside from the name Bangkok, the locals would refer to the city by its shortened version, Krung Thep, which means"City of Angels".
“Writing the capital city’s official name with the Roman alphabet can be done both as Krung Thep Maha Nakon and Bangkok,” the agency was reported saying.
