Well, had some interesting conversations today with some locals here in Phuket. I met some people that know some other people that captain boats here, boats that belong to the "rich and famous" of Thailand's elite. I won't get into names, as it's not fair to these people to be "advertised". Having wealth in Asia is not something that you flaunt; doing so can get you into trouble. So, as usual here on russbo.com, we'll keep things anonymous.
My chain of associates tell me that one of the "big boys" of Shaolin, was here recently, to hang out on one of the rather large (over 100 foot) yachts here in Phuket. Apparently, a family member of a rather wealthy Thai lineage is interested in martial arts, and he recently played host to whom I presume to be Yongxin, on his mega yacht.
For an abbot of a supposedly deeply revered religious institution, he sure does get around, doesn't he.
