Picture of the building of the Sirikit Medical Center in Bangkok, which was inaugurated on 12 August 1992 as part of the 60th Birthday celebrations and  fifth birthday cycle of Queen Sirikit Kitthiyagon. It is located on the compound of the Ramathibodi Hospital and part of the Faculty of Medicine of the Mahidol University. In the top right corner is the logo of the Ramathibodi Foundation in gold, i.e. an eight-pointed star with some decorative designs, and with an oval-shaped field at its centre, in which is the silhouette of two people giving each other a hand, in front of a bright light that radiates beams from its centre. Underneath the star is the Thai text Moonlanithi Ramathibodi (มูลนิธิรามาธิบดี), i.e. Ramathibodi Foundation.
