libya 115 Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 An interesting observation was made in the report by Pattaya Daily News: SOURCE: Pattaya Daily News: Friday April 13th 2007 After checking the car, the police found a popular image of the Buddha (Jatukam ramatehp) hanging on the mirror, which had sustained no damage, but had apparently failed to fulfil the driver’s faith in it.
