Rimmer Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Immigration nabs alien monks PATTAYA:--Four Cambodian monks were arrested and disrobed after immigration police discovered they had entered Thailand illegally. A squad of Chonburi Immigration Office agents swarmed a hut in a potato field in Sriracha’s Bo Win sub-district where the monks were living May 22. None of the four – with ages ranging from 33 to 66 – had passports; only monkhood certifications. They were charged with visa violations and stripped of their robes by area Buddhist officials before being deported back to their home country. -- © Copyright Pattaya Mail 2018-06-01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotssing Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I am always bewildered by the use of the word alien. To me it means someone from outer space, extra terrestrial. Lost in translation I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenny2017 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 A squad of Chonburi Immigration Office agents swarmed a hut in a potato field in Sriracha’s Bo Win sub-district where the monks were living May 22. A typical place for real Buddhists, roughly speaking. While the "real" monks prefer to fly in Learjets and go for the big bucks. Amen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadbury Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 They have been reading the recent news about the corruption within the Thai temples and have decided the pickings are far better in Thailand than in Cambodia. 23 hours ago, Rimmer said: They were .......stripped of their robes by area Buddhist officials before being deported. The local saffrons were not having any of these freeloading interlopers cutting in on their ill gotten gains and maybe stealing their stolen money.
