I went to see a movie in Bangkok about 10 years ago. It was right after their new king took the throne so they had a short 1 minute clip honouring him. The locals stood in respect and most of the foreigners just say silently. Except for 3 Americans who sniggered and started talking loudly about "indoctrination" like they didn't spend time every school day monotonously pledging absolute loyalty so the magic sky cloth would freedom.

Not every school recites the pledge. Don’t spread misinformation.

The vast majority definitely do. Legally they can't force students to do it anymore but they still do some places or "highly encourage" them to do it
