BANGKOK, June 5 (Xinhua) -- The government of China will cooperate with the private sector to set Bangkok's skies aglow with historic fireworks celebrating the 60th anniversary of Thai King's accession to the throne, the Community Support Foundation Thailand said on Monday.

Fireworks supplied by the Chinese government will be exhibited June 9 at Benjakitti Park at National Queen Sirikit Convention Center. About 10,000 fireworks will be launched to a height of 100-200 meters and will explode into music.

Community Support Foundation Thailand told the media that the fireworks are state-of-the-art technology. They are full of color, smokeless, light sound, and movable.
