Popular Post webfact Posted October 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2023 The generosity of a wealthy philanthropist from Chanthaburi sparked a lottery frenzy in Roi Et province. The benefactor donated a red-plate Mercedes-Benz, valued at 2,540,000 baht, to a revered monk, Phra Khru Udompanyasarn of Wat Ban Nong Ruea in Roi Et. The vehicle’s registration number has now become a hot pick for lottery enthusiasts, hoping to strike it rich in the draw on October 16. The red-plate Mercedes-Benz, bearing the registration number CH6520 from Bangkok, was handed over to the temple today. Phra Khru Udompanyasarn, widely recognised for his compassion and teachings, was a disciple of the famous Luang Pu Khun of Wat Ban Rai. The car’s donation caused a stir among the locals who believe its license plate might bring luck. by Nattapong Westwood Photo: KhaoSod.

A real buddhist monk does not need a Benz . The ' philantrophist ' should have sold it and donate the money for a good cause . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Aaaahhhhhhh, Roi Et again - creeping on its way out of Stonehenge days, inch by inch, somewhere towards the second millennium - but yet far away from anything like the 20th, lest forget the 21st century. Hilarious - explains Thailand in a (pun intended) nut shell ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
