  Mr. ROHRABACHER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to join the people of 
Thailand in extending my warmest wishes to King Bhumibol Adulyadej on 
the occasion of his 88th birthday on December 5, 2015. During his 
nearly 70 year reign so far, King Bhumibol Adulyadej has remained a 
steadfast leader through his commitment to democracy, economic 
development, and Thai prosperity.
  I am grateful for his continued commitment to a strong and long-
lasting relationship between the United States and the Kingdom of 
Thailand. Having had the distinct honor of meeting with King Bhumibol, 
I have admired his efforts to bring peace, prosperity, and stability 
for the Thai people.
  It is my pleasure to join our Thai friends in recognizing this 
special day and wishing King Bhumibol Adulyadej a long life of good 
health and happy 88th birthday.
