Uncle Bernard's Peanut Cart Goes Missing Amid Royal Barge Procession
A historic peanut cart belonging to Uncle Bernard has disappeared, with authorities suggesting it was removed during the Royal Barge Procession preparations.
According to a report by Matichon Online, the iconic peanut cart belonging to 'Uncle Bernard' has gone missing. The cart, which was slated for preservation at the Thammasat University Museum, reportedly vanished during the period surrounding the Royal Barge Procession. Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) officials have addressed the incident, suggesting that the cart may have been cleared away by authorities as part of the logistical preparations for the royal event. For residents and visitors, the disappearance of this familiar street-side fixture marks the loss of a piece of local cultural history. While the BMA has provided an initial explanation regarding its removal, the current location of the cart and its ultimate fate remain unconfirmed. It is unclear whether the cart was intentionally collected for safekeeping or if it was inadvertently discarded during the cleanup efforts. Further updates are expected as officials continue to investigate the whereabouts of the historic item and determine if it can still be recovered for the museum as originally intended.
