People still believe in god in this "day and age", making the jump to tiger energy drinks isn't that far at all Edited June 4, 2016 by csabo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F4UCorsair Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 This monastery, and more particularly, the conduct of its monks, becomes more disgusting and disgraceful by the day. It wouldn't be difficult to see possibly irreparable damage done to Buddhism in Thailand as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taffyfromflint Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 There's obviously people a lot higher up the feed chain, other than these monks, that have been involved and likely managed the marketing and export of the products of this disgraceful and tragic business. I'm sure they are now known to the cops, but will we hear of them and not just a few of the usual low level "staff". You hit the nail on the head, there is one group that comes to mind and I'm sure we've all heard of them before in other unsavoury money making ventures. Now let's wait to see if the powers to be really do their job and arrest all the perpitrators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they are now known to the cops, but will we hear of them and not just a few of the usual low level "staff". Are those exporting and selling the products actually "higher up"? These people were breeding, killing and processing the animals, perhaps they did not make as much money as the next in line, but what makes them "low level"? I don't understand that.

moe666 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 There can be no punishment that measures up to the crimes conducted by the depraved minds of those who are responsible for this utterly repugnant conduct at this so called temple. I hope this place is razed to the ground and every person, robed or not, who has participated in these practice's are not only jailed but made to undertake social service of the most unpleasant but necessary kind. And the Buddhist hierarchy who had responsibility for this so called temple should be treated equally harshly because they are guilty of looking the other way. How about the farang volunteers, they must have been blind not to have seen what was going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEFLKrabi Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Sure the monks are criminals here, but this goes way higher. I think you'll find there's a few high ranking military and ex-military people involved too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edhart Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I get the feeling that all that has been found is just the tip of the iceberg. I sure hope they are at the Abbott and all the monk's that were there doing this.correct, but it isn't just the monks involved, there are those outside the sytem as well. Everyone is focusing on the monks while the others are trying to do what they can to avoid what's coming.Unfortunately alot will be swept under the carpet, this is how Thailand works. YES ,look At the Bank accounts ,follow the money chain ,not just look at the tigers ,but then its thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrTuner Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Just about every religion attracts the scum of the earth. Not surprising, you get to pass earthly laws by referring to the great flying spaghetti monster, fairly good deal, especially considering you can continue to siphon off the fools.

dunroaming Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I know that Thais love the photo opportunity and make a big deal when they "catch" a criminal but if there was ever a case of Thailand losing face big time then this is it. They must realise that this is being reported in many countries. After all it was only continuous pressure from animal rights groups that forced the police to act at all.

oldlakey Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 On the flip side, shame on those who in this day and age create a market for tiger products. Market creation is not needed in any shape or form The market is already there and has been since time immemorial The market is called China Supply is the name of the game as this evidence obviously shows Or if you like demand leads to supply one way or another as in all things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sead Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 There will be 1. Only 1 middleman who's going to take this on his shoulder and put in jail. It won't be a monk or police/army officer, You just relax in your couch and watch where this farce with all excuses is going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songlaw Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 tigerbeer.jpg I hope they don't ban this Tiger product, some people consider it a good Asian lager, including me. Any good? I am leophile.

Songlaw Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Saffron Mafia, even more powerful than the police. Tiger trafficing, very unusual wealth, airplanes, illegal cars, drug use and money laundering just for starters and all with the support of the people. Couldn't agree more.
