Publicity CAMPAIGN 2!
Monks = Peaceful (?)
By reading The Straits Times, you would have probably noticed that the idea of monks being peaceful and living in serenity is probably distorted. Well, while those really traditional monks are seriously all knowing and ever-peaceful, you would have noticed the rise of monks (and fake ones) perhaps, ruining the image altogether.
I would love to see monks being like this.

Rather than being scammers and beggars in Singapore (as in those fake-os), real monks don’t beg for money, you know.

And definitely not those kind in movies or shows.

No. Monks don’t have an “eye of Dashi” that spurts water out of the blue, nor do they recruit members around the world. Neither do they fight evil baddies nowadays.

Bulletproof Monk?! I won’t want monks to carry guns to protect themselves too.
And lastly, monks in Burma.

Yup. My opinion is, if you want peace, don’t protest. Look at Thaksin; thrown over by a bloodless coup. Burma? Yet another failed, bloody affair like many others in its stained history.
Hm. So much for world peace. We are living in a world that can no longer be solved by violence? Internet is like the sling of David against Goliath, yo. Not violence and guerilla forces.
But whatever you all do, I just want peace and a conducive environment to study in.

Yup. Peace. The eternal goal for all Miss Universe-s.
