The repatriation ceremony will be held at museums in the US and Thailand. On Thailand’s side, the ceremony will be held at Bangkok National Museum in May, after which the statues will be exhibited.
“The Metropolitan Museum of Art is working on repatriation details of two artefacts for Thailand’s consideration,” Sermsak said, adding that Thailand is also working on the repatriation of artefacts from the ancient town of Si Thep in Phetchabun province in collaboration with US agencies.
