masuk Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Another fine, upstanding Thai citizen, a shining example to the whole world of "Thainess" and their (screwed up) perception of Buddhism. I just hope he paid full price for all those cars, and didn't cheat the tax man or he'll be in BIG trouble I believe a certain Al Capone had the same trouble!

Gonzo the Face Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 This entire debacle makes me very sad. Not for the Thai version of Rasputin, but for Forbes. I have now lost trust and confidence in Forbes , the list of most wealthy and corrupt. They did not even list the guy in the fugitives on the loose list. Surely he must make the list.

Freedomfighter Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Maybe this Monk's real gig ( job not fb) is exporting and marketing 'Thai-ness' to the world. I hope he remembers to include the scams-corruption-xenophobia, racial discrimination, Police-Mafia cabal, etc etc etc Im sure some new age hippie dippies in California would be gullible enough to donate a few more dollars for 'his' cause.

Maggusoil Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 "The DSI yesterday also conducted a DNA test on an 11-year-old boy in Si Sa Ket, who is believed to be the monk's son. Luang Pu Nenkham allegedly had a sexual relationship with the young boy's mother when she was only 14. The result of the test should be ready in two days." Typical of Thailand. We now have a monk who is a cheap knockoff of a Catholic Priest. The Catholic Priests have a stronger union. I wouldn't count on that . . This is the tip of an iceberg, and as some posters have pointed out, will have such high ranking people involved, it is doubtful they will reach the end of it. What usually happens in these cases, 'EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD' ( consistent Thai bashers please note), is they will try to heap as much crap on one or two individuals who will wear the brunt of it and the rest of the story will get buried. With the gold. The encouraging thing is that this exposure happened at all and is in keeping with a world wide trend exposing corruption everywhere.

lostmebike Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 'the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) will also investigate to see if the monk was part of a money-laundering racket.' So they aren't investigating yet??? Why are the authorities dragging their heels so much with this con man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony an Panida Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Revoking a passport doesn't require finding him. Just impound the cars and other hard assets. File charges and gather evidence. He's a money laundering fugitive. Thailand must go after him through international organizations. I suggest his citizenship is revoked. He brings shame upon Thailand and the Buddhist faith. He has harmed the spirit of the nation and should be treated like a public enemy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bramds Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hold on, lets try and establish that he's actually guilty of something first. All we know at this stage is that he owns some nice cars and is ALLEGED to have fathered a son by a 14 year old girl. For all we know the DNA result may come up negative and he may have a perfectly legitimate reason for having a car collection, after all they are all in his name. A Buddhist monk isn't supposed to have any material possessions, not even a bicycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nepsydaz Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Jet-setting monk found to have bought 22 luxury cars A Rolls Royce for every day of the year – Osho Far behind than an Indian monk (late) OSHO who had an ownership of 93 Rolls Royces. About getting Facts Right: 1. OSHO is not his Name. His Name was Rajaneesh 2. He wasn't a Monk. 3. Totally not related to this news. 4. No, I am not his Fan just trying to point out to the facts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malthus101 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I often see monks in Siam Paragon checking out iPhones and sunglasses and huge flat screen TVs... it's such a joke. They get no veneration from me. This worship of idols and career path monks is so far removed from Buddha's teachings. I'll say it again - what a joke.

Of course a monk needs 22 luxury cars and a house in Cal. And if he did shag a 14 year old girl it was probably and accident or she asked for it and he was just helping her out!!!

He's a monk. He's not supposed to own anything luxury. The only good thing that will come out of this is that it will smash the hippy-yippee ideal that Buddhism is scandal-free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katipo Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 A good journalist would be hunting the names of the persons making large donations to this Temple. My guess. Army / Police Generals, government workers and members of important families that can't be mentioned. If this Monk is part of something bigger, that is, using the temple as a front to launder money, you can be sure corrupt officials, policemen, and mafioso types will have been using his services. Temple 'donations' are a great way to move money into monastic held accounts where the prying eyes of the AMLO cannot so easily go. On the other hand, he could have just been ripping off his flock for all he could. Most likely..... both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
