Retire Malaya VS Thailand: Advantages? Disadvantages? Your Experiences?
Good for you. But this forum is full of threads from Farangs who are sick of the place and constantly complaining about the Thais. In 10 years of living in Malaysia I've never had any trouble with any of them. In fact if anything the Malays are the most gentle and polite of all the races here. The Chinese have a natural abrasiveness in their culture - you see it best in places like Hong Kong where they are in the majority and given their head to fully act out. The Malays are a moderating influence on the Chinese, and the Chinese equally give the Malays an entrepreneurial push, and the necessity to moderate the fundamentalism. The result is a better mix for both, and for expats. -

Fake monk returns to Bangkok to beg day after losing robes - video
Just one day after being unmasked as a fake monk, a 65 year old man from Saraburi, Central Thailand, was spotted back on the streets of Bangkok, resuming his act as a disabled beggar—but this time without his monk’s robes. Last weekend, netizens sparked an outcry when they spotted the fake monk begging in the Phaya Thai district, using crutches and pretending to be disabled. Outraged by the impropriety, social media users demanded action, prompting police to step in. Officers quickly identified the imposter as Nipon, a former monk who had recently turned to begging under the guise of a Buddhist holy man. Last Sunday, November 10, Nipon was taken to Monks Hospital, where he was disrobed for breaking monastic law and was fined 100 baht for begging, a direct violation of Buddhist principles. However, in a twist that stunned many, a TikTok clip surfaced yesterday, showing a familiar figure—this time dressed in white—receiving donations on the street. The video, posted by user @zhetols, was captioned: “Today, he wears white. Now that he has been disrobed, he can do the same job. #fakemonk #monkpretendingdisabled.” With his monastic disguise stripped away, Nipon’s latest act sees him returning to the streets, unfazed by the scandal that exposed him. While some Bangkok residents remain shocked by his brazenness, others worry about the potential damage to the public’s trust in genuine Buddhist monks, reported The Nation. This incident has also reignited debates on stricter regulation and enforcement to curb impersonation and exploitation of public sympathy.
