what happened? the australian man is my friend. i don't have any news from him since 2013. if he had done something wrong, they can talk to him or reprimand him. No one or even a monk has the right to slap someone especially old people. been staying here in Thailand for almost 3 years and what i know is, the Monk should be the role model to do good things. (disappointed here ) He respected the monk that's why he never fought back!
