can you believe this ?

Most of Thai people are Buddhist. Buddhism is the national religious of Thailand. Many Buddha immages in Thailand are pasted with gold leave (real 24 karat gold that make very very thin ) . This is a very commom practice in Thailnd. Some of the Buddha immages in the famous temple have pretty thick gold leave pasted on it. Lately, with the gold price went sky high that some criminal mind used some acid to melt the gold on the immage or jsut scrape it out right from the immage to sell for profit! A practice so sinful to Thai people that no body ever think it can happen but it happen right now in Thailand. The police much work very hard to stop this. There is a saying that when the virture is one foot high the satan will be one meter high. Human nature is so difficult to understand. There will always be some good and some bad I guest.
