A Thai foundation screened three open-air movies at a graveyard in Chon Buri's Phan Thong district on Tuesday night for its dead residents.

 

Boonsom Silapachai, president of the Sawang Utthayan Phan Thong Foundation, said he hired an open-air movie operator to screen three movies at the Sawant Utthayan Phan Thong graveyard for the Songkran festival.

 

The movies were screened in a ghostly atmosphere with only a few staff from the foundation and neighbours coming to watch the movies.

 

Boonsom said it was the third time this year that he had hired movies to be screened for ghosts at the graveyard that has over 100 tombs.

 

He said he believed it would bring good luck for staff at the foundation and the ghosts would enjoy the movies.

How do you get to be president of anything without a brain?  You really have to fear for the future of Thailand with people like this in charge.

Yeah, they'll all become Christians next where the dead come back to life and float off to heaven, but of course westerners would never believe such rubbish would they .......

 

If only the Thais could be like us.

??? mmmm..... with Anzac Day approaching, a mate just suggested that it might be good to set up a screen at kanchanaburi cemetery to start playing movies depicting the dropping of the A bomb, or similar things, as an update to the outcome of residents sacrifice.

???
