webfact Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Daily News Thai Caption: Going downhill dailyMuang Nan police were called to a temple in Pha Sing sub-district of the northern Thai province after a belligerent monk who was paralytically drunk challenged locals to a fight. He was drunk, noisy and swearing at everyone and what passed for speech was incoherent babble, reported Daily News. The cops found Phra Pongsiri in the back of a pick-up reeking of booze. He refused a breathalyser test but agreed to be defrocked. Picture: Daily News Locals said he'd been there less than a month but it had been a tempestuous time. They feared that such an individual, despite being tossed out of the monkhood, would simply reordain elsewhere and continue his errant ways. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2023-03-31 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

It's a strange culture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
