Asdang Dejavudh, Prince ofNakhon Ratchasima (Thai:อัษฎางค์เดชาวุธ;RTGS: Atsadang Dechawut, 12 May 1889 – 9 February 1925) was a son of KingChulalongkorn and QueenSaovabha Phongsri ofSiam. He was given nickname asEiad-lek orPrince Eiad-lek (Thai:เอียดเล็ก) and best known in the palace by his nickname of "Thunkramom Eiad-lek".
Prince Asdang Dejavudh was born on 12 May 1889 to King Chulalongkorn and Queen Saovabha Phongsri. When the prince was three-years old in 1891, he began suffering from a disease which doctors said could not be cured if the prince stayed inBangkok. For that reason, Chulalongkorn brought Asdang Dejavudh to the island ofKo Sichang off the coast of modern-dayChonburi province. Chulalongkorn had previously brought another son,Prince Vajiravudh, when he was seven to recover from another illness.[1] Asdang Dejavudh spent several months on Ko Sichang before he got well again.[2] To celebrate his son's recovery, Chulalongkorn built the Asdang Bridge near thePhra Chuthathut Palace on the island.[3] The bridge's royal opening ceremony was held on 23 August 1891 after construction began on 10 August.[4]
On 5 July 1903 at age 14, Asdang Dejavudh enteredmonkhood. In 1905, he was sent toEngland for his education along with his brotherChudadhuj Dharadilok, and half brotherMahidol Adulyadej. Asdang Dejavudh however did not stay long in England and went toSingapore for education. He returned to Siam in 1908 and entered the Siamese Military Academy.[5]
