Your Majesty,

I have the honor to write to you today to propose concrete steps to further strengthen the longstanding and respectful bilateral relationship between Thailand and Poland. We deeply value Poland's enduring friendship and alliance, which stands as a testament to our shared commitment to mutual understanding and cooperation. In this spirit, I extend a formal invitation to Your Majesty and your family to undertake a state visit to Thailand on January 12, 2004. We believe this visit would be a significant opportunity to solidify our partnership and explore further avenues for collaboration.

I find it particularly gratifying to reflect on the personal dimension of the bilateral relationship between Thailand and Poland, one that we have both nurtured and strengthened during our respective tenures. Throughout the ever-changing global landscape, our nations have consistently approached one another with mutual understanding and respect, a foundation that I deeply cherish. Sharing part of my life experience with someone I consider a genuine friend from Poland, Your Majesty, is a privilege I hold dear. The enduring nature of our personal connection, evident in our recent video conference, undoubtedly contributes to the strength of our national partnership.

Our nations share a deep-rooted history and a strong foundation of shared values, including a deep appreciation for human rights, freedom, democracy, and justice. This common ground, transcending geographical distance, underscores the importance of building upon our shared past to create a mutually beneficial future. One notable example of our successful collaboration is the establishment of an inclusive consultation service at the highest levels of government. This mechanism fosters constructive and progressive communication, ensuring mutual understanding and addressing any potential concerns.

Your Majesty, your state visit would serve the invaluable purpose of further strengthening our bilateral relationship and exploring avenues for advancing our long-standing partnership. While our alliance has historically held symbolic significance, Thailand firmly believes that your visit presents an exceptional opportunity to elevate our cooperation across multiple areas, including trade, technology, education, and security.

Your visit to Bangkok will be marked by utmost respect and consideration for ceremonial events. Upon arrival at Don Muang Air Base, a formal welcoming ceremony will commence, featuring military honors, the exchange of national anthems, and a public greeting through the media. I would be honored to personally exchange symbolic gifts as a gesture of goodwill and to commemorate the occasion. To underscore the mutual respect and trust between our armed forces, you will be invited to inspect our Guard of Honor. A ceremonial motorcade will then escort you to the Phitsanulok Mansion, where we will participate in a symbolic tree-planting ceremony, signifying the enduring growth and strength of our bilateral relationship. Following this, we will engage in a private bilateral meeting, while our respective delegations hold concurrent discussions. Should your visit span a single day, it will culminate in a State Banquet.

Should your visit extend beyond one day, we would be honored to accommodate you at the Phitsanulok Mansion, the official residence of the Prime Minister of Thailand. This gesture serves as a symbolic token of our deep respect and warm hospitality. Your safety and security are of utmost importance. Comprehensive security arrangements will be undertaken by the Metropolitan Police Bureau, supplemented by the expertise of the Republic of Thailand Navy's special force unit, the Republic Shield, renowned for its expertise in VIP protection.

I am confident that your state visit will be a momentous occasion, further solidifying the enduring friendship and cooperation between Thailand and Poland. Bangkok eagerly awaits your arrival, and I look forward to personally extending a warm welcome to Your Majesty and your esteemed family.

Best Regards,

Thaksin Shinawatra
Prime Minister
Republic of Thailand

Minister Shinawatra, Thank you for reaching out to me for such an occasion. I am surely gladdened to be invited to such a momentous occasion. I am, unfortunately, dealing with state matters at the current time. We are organizing an election for all elected officials in the Senat and the Sjem while also working towards to defusing the situation between France and Canada. The Queen consort, however, will be attending the event in my place as she has expressed interest in visiting your great nation several times before. As the Queen Consort, she has my full authority to act in a diplomatic fashion. Please consider her to be an extension of my body and soul during her state visit as I do in everyday life. I would like to stress the efforts I would go to protect the safety of my wife and would like to include five armed security personnel to assist the Thai security in protecting her, and yourself, from anyone that intends to disrupt these bilateral negotiations. I hope this is acceptable to you and your government. She looks forward to attending this talks as she has felt she has been quite useless as of late after the trying birth of a daughter and the events during and afterwards. She is excited to finally be able to fulfil her duty to the people of Poland and to the world in fostering a peaceful existence between nations.

Sincerely, Stanislaus Grabowski King of Poland Święty Król Polski

Within the Royal Palace, the Queen would begin preparing for the trip by itemizing each requirement she would need to bring with her to insure Poland was well represented on her first foray as a dignitary of Poland. Her best outfits would be cleaned, pressed and packed. This would include dresses as well as more functional business suits and casual wear she would find herself more comfortable in. Shoes and hats would also be carefully packed to insure their safety during transit. She would also take a trip into the old town of Warsaw. She would choose a blue and white tea set from a local shop that was handcrafted as the gift for the Prime Minister of Thailand before it was carefully prepared for transit by being placed in a wooden box bearing the seal of Poland and Thailand together on the lid.

January 12, 2004
Bangkok, Thailand
10:00 AM Local Time​

The sweeping rays of sunshine bathed the megapolis at the heart of Southeast Asia's mainland. Bangkok, on this particular day, prepared itself for an extraordinary event, a spectacle of grandeur. From the towering skyscrapers to the intricate urban sprawl, Thai and Polish flags adorned streets and buildings alike. Security, both stringent and considerate of local privacy, reflected a delicate balance between paramount interests and the rights of the population. It hinted at the Thai people's active engagement in national politics, making the state visit of the Polish Queen to Thailand the town's hottest topic.

At the Don Muang Airbase, the bastion guarding Bangkok, various military officers assumed their roles on the airfield. Once a bustling airport, now a vigilant airbase, it attracted the attention of mass media, whose watchful eyes covered every corner. The stage was set for a momentous occasion.

The red and white Tupolev Tu-154 would glisten amongst the clouds as the metallic bird soared through Thai airspace upon its approach to Don Muang Airbase. Onboard the specialized transportation aircraft was the most important Polish delegates, save for the King himself. Seventeen souls on board and sixteen of them would gladly give their lives for the important VIP onboard the aircraft. Following all direction from the Thai ATC, the Pilots would safely place the aircraft on the ground with minimal turbulence, landing as softly as humanly possible. Once they had taxied to their parking spot, safely off of the runway and the taxiway, the delegation would await the arrival of the steps from the Thai groundcrew before they would begin disembarkation procedures.

First to leave the aircraft would be two men wearing basic suits wearing eyeglasses and earpieces, looking more akin to accountants or office workers than special protective agents. Clean shaven and hair that was cut short but not buzzed. One even wore eyeglasses that was reminiscent of the 70's and 80's than the early 2000's. Each one, however, carried a FB Beryl-C assault rifle and a smile on their face as they stepped down from the aircraft to be the first ones to step foot on Thai soil. Those that followed them were the pilots and flight crew who disembarked to begin working with the Thai groundcrew on the specifications and requirements of the aircraft during their downtime. They would insure that the aircraft was immediately refueled and ready to depart at a moment's notice. Finally the queen, brown hair braided elegantly and laid over her left shoulder and eyes covered by sensible yet fashionable glasses that complimented her well tailored suit and functional flats, opting for utility over looks. Her outfit was finally brought together by a scarf made of the red and white of the Polish flag signifying her devotion to the Kingdom of Poland. The only true thing to identify her as a delegate from the Kingdom of Poland would be a Polish flag lapel pin attached to her left collar. Despite this basic state of dress for a monarch, the Queen certainly held a sense of gravitas in the way she held herself and walked down the stairs without assistance. Following her were her four attaches and the remaining three security personnel would looked better the part of VIP protection agents, all three wearing suits and wielding concealed handguns and submachine guns under their suit jackets. Once on the ground the Attaches, carrying the luggage of the Queen, only a few bags and a suitcase, would form a protective back line for the Queen while the protective agents formed a larger security barrier on all sides for the Queen, with the one wearing spectacles would stand close by her, nearly touching her elbow.

With the sun beating with the pulse of renewed friendship and the promise of a new beginning between old friends, the Queen would await for their welcome party from the Thai government to begin introducing themselves before offering her own curtsy and then hand to each members, insuring she would introduce herself as Sofia Grabowski, forsaking adding her title as Queen Consort in an effort to provide a level of humbleness to her visit.

The gleaming Tupolev Tu-154, bathed in hues of dawn and purity, gracefully dipped its metallic wings against the expansive blue of Central Thailand's sky, making its descent toward Don Muang Airbase. From her vantage point, the sprawling metropolis, a vibrant tapestry of modernity and lush greenery home to 16 million souls, unfolded below. Even from this lofty altitude, beyond the reach of ordinary human experience, there seemed to be a palpable connection between the lives below, as though their dreams and aspirations were woven from the same thread.

As the aircraft made contact with the runway, a quiver of excitement coursed through the cabin, a mingling of anticipation and the warm embrace of Thailand's summer. Was it the air, buzzing with the energy of countless aircraft and stories, or something else altogether? The answer remained unspoken, yet the arrival of this distinguished visitor seamlessly wove itself into the fabric of Thailand's bustling airbase.

Through the cabin's windows, the scene below was one of respect and majesty. The airbase, a bustling hive of activity with thousands of aircraft, drones, and radars, offered a daily spectacle to tens of thousands who called it their workplace. Yet would this display catch the eye of the visiting Polish delegation? Arrayed across the vast tarmac were soldiers in the traditional attire of the Thai Royal Guard, a disciplined array of regiments amidst the hum of activity. Soldiers marched across adjacent tarmacs, and the harmonious strains of the Republic Armed Forces bands filled the air, setting the stage for a welcome that hinted at the absence of several aircraft, an omission that spoke volumes in the language of diplomacy and respect.

As the Polish aircraft gently came to rest on the tarmac, the choreography of protocol unfolded with precision and grace. A red carpet unfurled towards the aircraft as a staircase seamlessly bridged the gap between the ground and cabin door. Lining this path of honor were various senior Thai officials and high-ranking military officers, a testament to the respect and anticipation of this meeting, though none bore the nation's highest honors. Almost instantly, a ballet of technology commenced at the plane's threshold and along the ceremonial path. Technicians, each manning a sophisticated camera, took their positions with practiced ease on an automated vehicle. The air soon buzzed with the flight of civilian drones, their lenses capturing the moment from every conceivable angle, a dance of shadows and light.

In the midst of this carefully orchestrated welcome, Thai and Polish staff convened at the foot of the staircase, quickly conferring to ensure the smooth progression of the visit. A request from the Republic Special Forces, specifically the Republic Shield battalion of the Naval Special Warfare Command — experts in VIP security — set the terms of protection. With professionalism and clarity, they detailed that only two Polish armed guards would accompany the Queen, a measure balanced by the addition of two Republic Shield operatives to safeguard the Thai Prime Minister. This negotiation, delicately balancing the scales of publicity and security, was grounded in a mutual assurance: there had been no intelligence suggesting a threat from either ISOC or the NIA Internal Division.

As arrangements solidified, ensuring a select cadre of six would tread the red carpet, the Thai team communicated swiftly with their Polish counterparts. The message was clear: Her Majesty the Queen should ready herself for the grand unveiling. Amidst this anticipation, cameras veered towards a figure of authority escorted by two members of the special forces. Dressed in formal black, with hair cut short, Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra stepped onto the carpet, emerging from the main building. As he progressed, salutes from military officers punctuated his path, and greetings from officials peppered the air. Thaksin endeavored to acknowledge each gesture, a task that, despite his best efforts, proved challenging.

Midway across the carpet, the moment arrived for the Polish Queen to make her entrance. No sooner had she appeared than the lenses of various cameras and the gaze of technological apparatuses converged on her, particularly noting her impeccably styled brown hair. Military officers stood at the ready, preparing to salute as she passed. Yet, it was Thaksin, positioned at the staircase's base, who offered the first welcome, bridging the distance with a gesture of Thai greeting and a Polish word before speaking in fluent English.

"Your Majesty," Thaksin greeted, his tone warm and congenial. "Forgive my deviation from protocol by addressing you informally. Given the solemnity of this occasion, I believe it's fitting to uphold the dignity of our titles before adopting a more casual rapport, wouldn't you agree?" He chuckled lightly, extending an arm to Queen Sofia Grabowski, flanked by two Polish guards and two Thai special forces personnel. Together, they traversed the length of the carpet until they halted beside twin flagpoles, poised to witness the performance of the Thai and Polish national anthems. Immersed in the ceremonial ambiance, they observed as several Saab JAS 39 C/D Gripen aircraft streaked overhead, their flight painting the azure sky with the vibrant hues of both Thai and Polish flags.

Following the conclusion of the ceremony, the two leaders strolled side by side along the designated path leading to the main building, engaged in conversation. As they neared the building's perimeter, security measures intensified, and a multitude of observers gathered. At the end of the carpet awaited twin podiums for Thaksin and Sofia, positioned before a throng of press and media representatives. Beyond the crowd, a lineup of motorcades awaited their departure.

Amidst a hushed anticipation, the crowd fell silent, eagerly awaiting the words of their Prime Minister. With a demeanor exuding warmth and delight, Thaksin grasped the microphone, preparing to address the assembly. "Your Majesty, the Queen of the Kingdom of Poland, and esteemed members of the Polish delegation," he began, his voice carrying a tone of sincere welcome. "On behalf of Thailand, its people, and myself, I extend a profound honor and warmest greetings to you as you embark on this historic visit to the Republic of Thailand." As he spoke, an unexpected wave of applause rippled through the audience, momentarily tempting Thaksin to join in. "This visit marks a significant milestone, Your Majesty, as it signifies the first state visit of my premiership. It is a testament to the profound respect and admiration we hold for your esteemed leadership." With a pause, he acknowledged the presence of the Polish Thai community, who had gathered to witness the occasion. "But beyond the formalities, Your Majesty, this visit holds deeper significance. It symbolizes the enduring bonds of friendship between our peoples, and the opportunity before us to forge a new chapter in our nations' relationship—one that defines the partnership of the 21st century, built upon the foundations laid in the preceding century."

"While our two countries have embarked on distinct journeys to arrive at this juncture, our narrative is one of shared potential, a tale of two nations poised to flourish in tandem, yet grappling with the delicate balance between our cultural disparities. On a personal level, it unfolds as the story of two individuals hailing from disparate walks of life, navigating the realms of democracy, justice, freedom, and our existential foothold in this vast universe. Many among you present here today, including Your Majesty, might be aware of the amiable rapport I share with His Majesty, the King of Poland. His Majesty's benevolent gesture in facilitating Her Majesty's engagement in public service in Thailand is a testament to his compassionate character. There's no denying the authenticity of the deep bond that exists between the Polish King and myself." Thaksin paused momentarily, allowing the flurry of camera flashes to capture the moment, while conversations buzzed around him.

"Today, our nations stand as global leaders not driven by the desire to dominate, but by a collective vision to forge a future marked by security, prosperity, justice, sustainability, and freedom for all. Your Majesty, in our pursuit of this shared destiny, Poland holds an indispensable role. As beacons of innovation and progress, Thailand and Poland possess the potential to serve as exemplars of collaborative efforts for the greater good of humanity. Having both experienced the scourge of terrorism, we stand united, collaborating to prevent future attacks and fostering prosperity that serves as a bulwark against the seeds of violent extremism. With Poland's rising influence on the global stage, we have the opportunity to join forces to address myriad transnational challenges: from fostering clean energy partnerships and combatting climate change to tackling infectious diseases, alleviating hunger, and eradicating extreme poverty in our lifetime. This is the Poland that Thailand welcomes today–––a leader in Europe and around the world." Respectful applauses followed his pause.

"As His Majesty, the King of Poland, aptly remarked regarding Her Majesty, the Queen of Poland, it is indeed my honor to extend a warm welcome to such a revered leader, now poised to fulfill her duties to the people of Poland and to the global community in nurturing harmonious relations between nations. Your Majesty, with that profound sentiment in mind, I extend to you a heartfelt welcome to the Republic of Thailand." Thaksin's words resonated through the room, punctuated by applause, as he reached out for a handshake with Sofia, signaling her to address the audience.
