Dear Masters and Buddies, I am a supporter of Longshan Temple. I cherish the Longshan Temple’s centuries-old contribution to Buddhism in Singapore. No matter what happens, I have been silently supporting Longshan Temple.
These screenshots were checked by the abbot of the Longshan Temple and confirmed that it is a monk from Longshan Temple
Longshan Temple is a century-old temple, clean temple, not only the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas but also the ancestors of the past, the biography master as the abbot The abbot’s behavior is really an insult to the Buddha, dare to ask who still dare to continue to believe in Buddha worship?Â
In order to cultivate and support the Master, Master should not abuse the donations and support of believers in this way. For Buddhism and the monks of the past dynasties, I intend to publish it in the world. Don’t blame me, because I can’t deceive others with a conscience.

Your honour,
I am writing this letter to explain how I feel towards this incident.
My father leaves me and my mother when I was an age of 14 years old even though I was young I still remembered that my mother was going through her lowest point in life, from her outlook I can tell she is giving up in life but because of my brother and I she decided to live on. I am scared that she is no longer around because I love her a lot and i wish that nothing will happen to her, I know that if she is not around I will need to be following my father and I wish it will not happen.
Even though my mom and I have some difficulties in communicating but deep down my heart I truly love her just that I can’t express it out, we had a talk and I understand that she is having a hard time controlling her emotional and it went overboard so she can’t be able to think straight, the way she talks to me I can feel that she is very sorry for what she had done to me and she didn’t mean it due to her love towards me she will never do that.
I hope you are able to give her a second chance, I promise from the bottom of my heart from today on I will do my part as a daughter to attend school every day, won’t create any trouble in or outside school, listen to her and lastly make sure she won’t make the same mistake again. My love for my mother is strong. I want to spend more time with her, seeing her every day and create more good memories since my father had left us alone. That is all I want to share, thank you your honour for putting effort in reading this note about my emotion I appreciate it a lot I really hope that you are able to give me a chance to spend more time with her.
I have already forgiven her, your honour.
The mother was sentenced to the detention of 14 days, 365 days of daily reporting and 140 hours of community service
