Thamkrabok Monastery

[Chopper71]

I am looking to film a documentary on Thamkrabok Monastery in Lopburi later this month. It is an amazing place where many drug addicts & alcoholics manage to beat their addiction after many failed attempts elsewhere.

I would be very interested in talking to anyone who is based in Bangkok or maybe London / Dublin ( as I will be visiting in a few weeks) who have attended the monastery so I can hear their story. Also if anyone is looking to undergo the programme and would be willing to talk to me it would be great to hear from you.

Many thanks,

Gary

I have a friend -French- who has been monk there for more than three years.

Now, he is working on a new detox program center in Chiang Rai, but he is coming often to Bangkok.

PM and I can put you in touch with him.

Never been through the course there, haven't had the need, but do visit now and then to have a chat with Monk Gordon, a really interesting guy.

Also to take him up a care package now and then, like a pizza or SUBWAY sandwich.

Thanks a million for your help with this, I'm actually off to stay in the monastery for a few days next week so I'll see how the shoot goes up there. I'll probably drop you a line when I get back.
