Odd this same person has asked this same question at least 3 times that I can find. The capital of Thailand is indeed Bangkok as everyone on this question and the others have suggested, but I think you are looking for a place called Bangjok, which to the best of my knowledge does not exist, at least as a transliterated word in english. It is possible that another language would refer to it as Bangjok, but again not to my knowledge.

Well Bangkok is the capital of Thailand and the Thai name is Krung Thep (and 42 other words) meaining the City of Angels etc, etc. Bangkok was settled in the early 19th centuray at a village called Bangkok - the Siamese name meaning Plum Orchard Village.
So Bangkok is not the same as Krung Thep...

I think you are asking for the city call --> BANGKOK.
It is the capital of Thailand.

Although the word Bangkok is an anglicised version of its real name, Krung Thep. Its a vibrant, alive city, the Venice of the Orient. I hated it the first time I was there, I love it now. The food, oh the food!
