With respect to the devotees into the Dhamma,
Before I start writing my letter to you all, I would like to
inform you all that I am not satisfied with the lawyer Dato YIP KUM FOOK
Chairman of MCA Gombak Division because of his bad encouraging impression as he
sent inspectors to come to SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST ASSOCIATION NO: 19 -21
JALAN 38 TAMAN DESA JAYA KEPONG 52100 KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA to arrest me
without any good reason, moreover, lawyer YIP KUM FOOK was not satisfied with
the Chief Sami.
When the Chief Sami had me go to the Temple he was already
and he went and left Me alone to take care until the Chief Sami returned to the
Temple and he also told me not to leave the Temple if any committee or chairman
wanted to drive me out, you did not leave the Temple at all understand? Then I
said, why? To the chief Sami! On the second day, YIP KUM FOOK (MCA Men) came to
our Temple and spoke to me. He was tired of making some inquiries out of me and
he asked me, where did I come from? I told him that I came from Penang.
Later, I told lawyer YIP KUM FOOK (MCA Men) that the Chief
Sami came to Penang and picked me up and invited me to accompany him to go to
the temple in Kuala Lumpur. I am not aware that YIP KUM FOOK the Chairman of
MCA Gombak Division is not on good terms with the Chief Sami, the Chief Sami is
already in this way, YIP KUM FOOK is trying to create unnecessary problems with
me.
That is why, lawyer YIP KUM FOOK wanted to drive me out of
the Temple. Then I asked the lawyer, why do you want to drive me out of the
Temple? Besides, the Temple doesn't belong to you, UNDERSTAND? Then, I asked
him, who are you? I don’t know you all, you have no right to drive me away or
control me at all, UNDERSTAND? You are just like an ordinary person. Do you
know the rules that any chairman or committee cannot control the Monks and nuns
(Nuns) at all, also UNDERSTAND?
I scolded him like that. Then the lawyer (YIP KUM FOOK, MCA
Men) was not happy with me and he told me that he would call the police to come
to the Temple and arrest me. I told him to go ahead and called the police to
come and arrest me. I will not run away, I told him like that. I have done
anything wrong towards you, why do you want to arrest me? He said he didn't
like me living here. I asked him, why? One more time. After this he became very
angry with me, so he called the police and the police came to the Temple and
told me to leave the Temple.
I told the inspector again, I am sorry, I will not leave the
Temple because the Chief Monk has instructed me not to leave the Temple without
his consent, UNDERSTAND? Then the inspector told me to leave, again. I told him
I could not leave the Temple because the Chief Sami was not coming back. This
time, the inspector became very angry with me and he took handcuffs and tried
to threaten me, so I immediately showed my hand for him to lock me up but he
was scared, then again, the inspector told me to leave the Temple again but I
still don't want to leave the Temple.
Then I called the Chief Sami again and I told him that the
inspector insisted on arresting me, you had better come back to settle the case
for me. After this event, the Chief Sami came back to the Temple and took me to
go to other temples and their lodgings. It's all about this incident! Finally,
I would like to inform you all, that no committee or chairman can control all
the Monks and nuns at all also UNDERSTAND? "They are taller than the
King," too! So how do ordinary people, committees and chairmen to control them:
- EVEN THE KING WHO IS ALSO RESPECTED SAMI-SAMI AND NUNS (Nuns). Why does the
chairman of the Temple not respect the Monks and Nuns? They will carry sins
later, UNDERSTAND?
You Dhamma,
Ven. Piya Phra Dhammo.
Penang, Malaysia.
