seajae Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 even more reason for them to actually go into the temple and arrest the rest of them, they sit on their hands and do nothing but let the accused leave the country, time to simply go in and grab the guilty ones before they leave if they havent already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcsw53 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 How do you "sneak" off to Paris. Presumably through Suvarnabhumi ? It is therefore too much to expect the police and immigration to work together so that when he scans his passport, he is detained. That would involve arresting someone clearly in a position of power. Wish the rest of us had the ability to walk on water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvr181 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Dhammakaya temple = a nest of snakes. And the followers are either blind or a part of corruption. Buddhism hi-jacked/subverted by greedy adherents in the cloth or without the cloth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPI Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Does anyone really believe that "the powers that be" intend to arrest the people involved in the numerous scams? All of the delays are obviously planned so that the "brown envelopes" are distributed to the right people for the correct amounts of "protection"! Can you ever imagine The DSI, the BiB and the "green machine" stopping this lucrative scam, where the only people getting hurt are the "peons"! This is going to go on for years, who profits by closing it down , only the suckers that originally put up the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
