People burn coffin donation receipts in prayer at the Ruamkatanyu Foundation next to Wat Hua Lamphong temple in Bangkok, Thailand, 27 August 2019. Adjacent to the popular Royal Buddhist temple Wat Hua Lamphong is the Ruamkatanyu Foundation where devotees earn merits by sponsoring coffins. The Ruamkatanyu Foundation collects donations for coffins, destined for those without relatives or unable to afford one. Usually hospitals contact the Ruamkatanyu Foundation to request the coffins.
