i was just wondering if these monks that hang around Jalang Petaling in KL asking for money are real monks, cos i always thought it was against their teachings to beg. i even saw some white girls hang over 10 RM, directy into their hands, and they were wearing skimpy clothing. its this that makes me wonder if they are just normal folk with a shaved head, working for a syndicate. of course i could be wrong, and just wai to them if they are the real McCoy, but not except any 'buddha gifts' in exchange for money.
