Indochina has become a place of interactions between Theravada Buddhism (traditional school for the region) and Mahayna represented mainly by Chinese immigrants.
I read that a number of Chinese Buddhists have conterted to Theravada in Malaysia. Does anybody has knowledge of the similar instances in Thailand?
Are instances of converting of Theravadans to Mahayana? Were there any attempts of creating a sencretic Buddhist moderninst movement based on the both schools?
My guess is that the latter would be more possible in Malaysia than in Thailand.
