There is one more question that puzzles me a bit. If the male pig's foot is a devout Buddhist, how can he fight so often, and even take people's lives? It may well be that my understanding of Buddhism is too shallow, and there is probably also deep punishment in Buddhism and not just forgiveness. There is also cruelty in Buddhism, not just peace and quiet. How the Buddha dealt with the so-called evil in the world is very interesting.
Thailand is a Buddhist country, a country where Buddhism is so prevalent, but the society is so turbulent. The Yellow Shirts, Red Shirts, Shemales, and such ruthless Muay Thai all appear at the same time in a place that believes in Buddhism as the state religion, which is a bit confusing. Of course, this means that I don’t really understand Thailand, but in my imagination, Thailand is like Nepal in the news, quiet, peaceful, and aspirational. The Chinese New Year is coming, and I wish everyone in Thailand a safe and happy life.
