chuckwoww Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 Monks to rent mall space in Thailand In between buying handbags or browsing the jewellery counters, shoppers in Thailand will soon also be able to get their daily dose of dharma under a plan to install monks in major department stores. Under the "meet the monk in a quiet corner" project, the Ministry of Culture plans to rent out space in stores throughout the country where shoppers can have a quiet chat with clergy in a bid to bring people closer to religion, officials said. "People nowadays have no time to go to temples, only shopping malls. They can get closer to the religion if we provide the opportunity," culture minister Uraiwan Thienthong was quoted as saying by local media. http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200511/s1517501.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
