Recent cases of Buddhist monks in Vietnam showing off on social media eating meat and boasting about expensive phones and motorbikes have highlighted the issue of misbehaviour among monks across East Asia. There have always been stories of drinking, gambling and womanising, but now social media is giving extra publicity to such bad behaviour. Issariya Praithongyaem of 麻豆社 Thai and Nga Pham of 麻豆社 Vietnamese discuss a growing problem. (Credit: Getty Images)
