Due to the prolonged war in the neighboring country bordering Aranyaprathet for over 7 years, Phra Kru Uthaithamathari decided to dedicate a statue of Phra Siam Devathiraj to be enshrined at the border. This act serves as a source of inspiration and encouragement for soldiers, police, civilians, and the local community. Consequently, Phra Siam Devathiraj has become a revered symbol of protection for the people of Aranyaprathet and nearby provinces.
