Don't judge Bangkok by the photo galleries
[QUOTE=Blu8096; 1437181]What to go to Thailand from KL for the weekend.
But the photos gallery's here are shit. One is loaded with pictures of ugly, fat and old nasty women. The other is loaded with nothing but a bunch of people talking- even though it is a photo gallery?
Is Bangkok a shit place to go now or are the photo gallery's just shit?
Should I go to Hong Kong instead?[/QUOTE]Bangkok is a great place for mongering; and the hotels are a better deal than in HK (though I do love HK.) Kaintuck's gallery appeals to certain appetites and has it's fans.
Does Any Monger Here Happen to be Missing a (Rich) Son?
44 Million Baht Lottery Wins for two Pattaya Monk's.
A Monk residing at a South Pattaya Temple won 38 Million Baht on the Thai National Lottery on Sunday. Another Monk at the same Temple, who was ordained on Sunday won 6 Million Baht.
The Monks reside at the Tamsamakee Temple in South Pattaya and because of the large win, the monk who won the 38 Million Baht has disappeared and attempts at contacting him have been unsuccessful. The other Monks at the Temple are thought to know his location but are keeping quiet for now.
Pra Kajonwat purchased his lottery tickets the day before he was ordained as a monk on 15th June. On 16th June he was ordained and also found out about his lottery win. As soon as he leaves the Monkhood he intends to give money to his Mother so she can build a new house and he will also donate some of the money to local orphanages. [b]The Monk revealed to us that he has never seen his American father and would like to use some of the money to track him down and visit him in the United States. [/b]
The missing monk, who was ordained 8 months ago, is likely to be disciplined by the Chief Abbot of the Temple, should he return, as he purchased the lottery tickets after his ordination which is not permitted, according to other Monks we spoke with at the Temple.
