Ordination in Cambodia and Laos

Post by LEOsteve »

Good day to all.

For any interested in ordination for foreign monks in Cambodia and Laos, I have some information and knowledge about this.

Though I have never ordained, I lived for some time in a wat in Cambodia. (On múltiple occasions.) The abbot explained the procedure for foreigner ordination there.

I also inquired in person at a forest wat in Laos, as well as at a government ministry in Vientiane regarding ordination in Laos.

For further details please reply to this post.

Thank you, and best wishes to all.

I would appreciate any information about getting ordinating as a foreign monk in Laos and the specific issues regarding visa.
Could you share what you found out from about this topic? Thank you very much.

I wonder what you guys plan to do for visa in Laos or Cambodia.

Id ordain as well but it seems pretty much impossible to get any kind of perm residency in any of these Buddhist countries.

I know some overstay ignoring the law but it seems foolish

Hi,
thanks a lot for your Metta.
I am committed to be ordained very soon.
Could you please give me general information about the ordination and the visa in Cambodia and Laos?
It would be good if you could let me know some names of forest monasteries as well.
please forgive my poor English.
