Boo Radley Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 70 Year-Old Monk Arrested for Exposing Himself Phangnga police today arrested a 70 year-old monk from Nakhon Si Thammarat province for exposing himself and asking for sex while soliciting for alms. The incident came to light after 55 year-old Mrs Ratchani Anusilanon, a receptionist at Sunimit Mansions located in the dockyard area of Phangnga, complained to police that a monk had come in to her place of work asking for 200 Baht. She gave him 100 Baht whereupon he proceeded to lift up his robes exposing himself and asking her for sex. The incident was captured on the building's CCTV. Officials think he may have mental problems since they found an empty medicine bottle amongst his possessions. http://www.thairath.co.th/content/region/302572 (31/10/12) 3 Monks Arrested for Selling Drugs in Nontaburi Three monks from a famous temple in Bang Bua Thong district in Nontaburi province were arrested by police yesterday for selling amphetamine pills to local youths in the area.

gobbledonk Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I had thought that there was a rule prohibiting anything which depicted Buddhism, and the dedication of the Thai people to said religion, in a negative light. It would appear that I am mistaken. Some of the topics that are NOT allowed on this board (and will result in instant deletion of the thread and possible banning of the poster) are: - child prostitution; if you are into little kids I would recommend euthanasia - disrespect towards HM the King; I have the utmost respect for His Majesty the King and will not allow any disrespect towards Him or other members of the Royal Family - drugs; doing drugs is stupid, and in Thailand it could also get you into big trouble with the law (see below) - politics; we are guests in this country and as such I wish to prevent any comments that may be taken the wrong way - racism; racists are NOT welcome here, and derogatory remarks on someones race, sexual preferences, etc. will result in you getting banned. - advertising; if you want to advertise, contact us at sanuk@nanaplaza.com to sponsor a forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Radley Posted November 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I had thought that there was a rule prohibiting anything which depicted Buddhism, and the dedication of the Thai people to said religion, in a negative light. It would appear that I am mistaken. Yes, I did hesitate to post the news articles for that reason but thought if the Thai press were reporting the stories, it would be ok to repeat them. Maybe it's a bit of a grey area. Some of our monks in the West (frequent child abuse stories etc) are no better, so wasn't trying to claim any moral high ground. Apologies to KS, will leave the decision to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Boo, As I mentioned previously all you did was C&P from Mainstream Thai Media. I think KS will agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
