Thich Minh Tue, a Buddhist devotee whose real name is Le Anh Tu, has announced that he would suspend alms-receiving activities as many people have surrounded his spiritual practice venue, disrupting security and social order in the area. He wrote that he would resume alms-receiving activities only when conditions are appropriate and traffic and social safety are ensured. According to Tu, such gatherings cause chaos and disrupt social order, affecting his spiritual practice. A representative of the authorities in Ia To Commune, Ia Grai District told Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper that they had yet to receive Tu’s letter. Tu later returned to his hometown in Ia Grai District, Gia Lai Province.
