Bhumibol had suffered from a variety of ailments related to old age, including kidney and lung problems, which caused him to withdraw from public life over the last decade. He lived at the hospital where he recently passed away and had been notably silent about the political upheaval that has shaken Thailand in recent years.

In a statement late Wednesday, the palace said Bhumibol's blood pressure had dropped, his liver and kidneys were not working properly and he was on a ventilator.

"Even though the board of doctors has closely monitored and treated him to the best of its abilities, the king's condition never improved," the hospital said in a statement.

Because Bhumibol has been king since 1946, there is great concern about the succession. Crown Prince Vajiralongkorn, who returned home from Germany on Wednesday, has not earned the same respect as his father.

"He is now in heaven and may be looking over Thai citizens from there," said Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha.

He announced that Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn would become the new monarch in accordance with the constitution and that government officials will observe a one-year mourning period. No government events will be held for one month.
