THAILAND<br />

It is highly illegal to<br />

take out or bring into<br />

the country pictures or<br />

ornaments with the image<br />

of Buddha, unless special<br />

permission has been granted.<br />

Many shop owners will still try to<br />

sell you pictures, but they will not<br />

tell you about the regulations of<br />

taking them home. Also, standing<br />

on a Buddha statue to have your<br />

photograph taken is one of the<br />

most disrespectful things that you<br />

can do in Thailand, because you<br />

are placing the lowest (the feet)<br />

upon the highest (Buddha).<br />
