webfact Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Sanook Thai Caption: First picture of "Khru Ba Bun Chum" You'd have to have been living in a cave for a few years to have missed one of the biggest events in modern human history. The Covid pandemic. But that's just what a hermit called "Khru Ba Bin Chum" has been doing after he pledged to become a troglodyte for three years, three months and three days. Crowds of disciples of Thai Yai people - an ethnic group many of whom live in Thailand - were waiting for his emergence from the cave in Muang Ket district in Shan state, across the border in Myanmar. Sanook had no word as yet on any comments from the hermit and only had pictures of his back whilst praying. For anyone wondering what a troglodyte is, ASEAN NOW notes that it is a human cave dweller derived from the Greek "trogle" meaning "hole" and "dyein" meaning to enter. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-08-01 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Gold Star Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Osama Bin Laden lived alone in his compound for years, together with his 4 wives. I think he tipped off the navy seals himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably missed a few of those missiles dropped by the Tatmadaw as well since the coup last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
