Cambodian monks visit Phuket

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Cambodian monks visit Phuket

Post by phuketrichard »

Seem even Cambodian monks like our island here. :beer3:
PHUKET: A group of 19 Cambodian monks are awaiting deportation after they were arrested and disrobed for violating several rules of the Buddhist monkhood as practiced in Thailand. -
Phra Kru Mettaphirom told the Gazette that about a 100 Cambodian monks had been arrested in Phuket this year.

“Most of them don’t notify us when they come to the island. They often live in tents in the woods and collect money from crowded communities or tourist areas,” Phra Kru Mettaphirom said. -
