Ton Bijvank Profile picture More than ninety per cent of the population is Buddhist. They give gifts to the local temple (wat), distribute food to the mendicant monks and meditate a lot. Buddhism occupies an important place in daily life. You can see this everywhere in the country, but especially during holidays and festivals. Poor or rich, everyone helps and gives what they can. Did you know that every man is expected to become a monk for a short time? Most men enter the monastery right after school and before starting a working career. Everyone is very proud when there is a monk in the family, as it means prestige and good fortune. Monks are easy to recognise by their beautiful orange robes.
