HRH visits wat, tsunami victims, opens factory

PHUKET: HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn arrived in Phuket on October 26 to take part in a Tod Kathin ceremony, during which people donated money to Wat Luang Phu Supa in Chalong.

The wat is the residence of Abbot Luang Phu Supa who, at 111 years of age, is the oldest abbot on the island.

My g/f went to see the abbot 4 years ago when - according to her - he was "nearly 100 years old". :o
