Wat Pho Temple Inscriptions Protected By UNESCO
Bangkok Post just posted a cool article about the Wat Pho being included in the regional Memory of the World (MOW) by the Unesco (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation).
Khun Preeda (Preeda Tangtrongchitr), 70 years old, who runs the massage school at the Wat Pho temple, was very happy about this development as it secured traditional Thai wisdom from greedy businesses. (There was a case a couple of years ago where a Japanese company tried to trademark the term Rusie Dutton).
