I have seen these pink shirts with the royal emblem for months and when I asked why pink, I've been told because His Majesty's 80th birthday falls on a Tuesday this year. fine, except that it is on Wednesday, now that I checked. why pink then?

According to the international press.....

Well-wishers have been wearing yellow, a colour associated with the king's December birthday, and pink, which they believe will bring him good health. King Bhumipol was wearing a pink jacket, to symbolise good health.
