The boy had stolen 20,000 baht from female traders working at the temple and had also stolen 2,000 baht from a monk and two other monks. A 45 year old resident of the area also said he had burgled his house on Monday. Picture: 77jowo The boy admitted stealing on 6 or 7 occasions in several areas in Sattahip. He was part of a gang that included two others. He was detained by the police as they awaited social services. No mention was made in the 77jowo story of the boy's parents or guardians.

Cadbury Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 It's called entrepreneurship. Once he has completed his corruption apprenticeship he will have all the makings of being an excellent Thai politician or senior bureaucrat. BTW he should be congratulated for stealing 2000 baht from a monk who likely stole it from someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but when the gullible donor realises it's lost - the monk as if by black magic - can waste no time pointing a Thai accusing finger at the kid.

Levels of guilt come under different levels of pointing. This is real guilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
