Annex 1

Saradaw, (I) heartily thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak in person at this great Sixth World Buddhist (Dhamma) Conference on behalf of all Bhikkhus in Buddhist India.

Saradaw, (I) especially appreciate this opportunity since we, Bhikkhus, living at the majjhimadesa, Buddhist India, have a job of rebuilding Buddha Sasana where it had been fading away and disappearing fast.



Saradaw, (I) congratulate the national Buddha Sasana Organization, which is representing the Government of the Union of Myanmar and its people, for volunteering to work with goodwill and good intentions to prolong the Buddha's Sasana to five thousand years. In spite of having suffered the consequences of the Second World War, and in spite of the political and economic upheavals and hardships that followed, you have managed to stage such a grand and splendid World Buddhist Conference as this one, which in effect could be comparable to great deeds done by our great and noble ancestors such as King Ajatasathu, King Kalashoka and King Sri Dhammashoka, who not only cherished Buddhist principles but saw to it that Buddhism also prospered in their heydays. Saradaw (I) say well done, well done, and well done.

Thai penis whitening trend raises eyebrows

Image copyright LELUXHOSPITAL Image caption Authorities warn the procedure could be quite painful A supposed trend of penis whitening has captivated Thailand in recent days and left it asking if the country's beauty industry is taking things too far. Skin whitening is nothing new in many Asian countries, where darker skin is often associated with outdoor labour, therefore, being poorer. But even so, when a clip of a clinic's latest intriguing procedure was posted online, it quickly went viral. Thailand's health ministry has since issued a warning over the procedure. The BBC Thai service spoke to one patient who had undergone the treatment, who told them: "I wanted to feel more confident in my swimming briefs". The 30-year-old said his first session of several was two months ago, and he had since seen a definite change in the shade. 'What for?' The original Facebook post from the clinic offering the treatment, which uses lasers to break do...
