India condemns the demolition of a statue of Lord Vishnu by Thailand on the disputed territories with Cambodia.
The statue was constructed in 2014, so its not a UNESCO heritage. This is pure hypocrisy. India have demolished its own centuries-old Babri Masjid and then built a brand new Ram Mandir temple above it in 2024. They didn't care about hurting Muslim sentiments.
Remember when Indians were clout chasing Wukong saying he was just a ripoff Hanuman? When you think about it, Wukong is still going strong in soft power being in every video game MOBA and Journey to the west remake. In contrast, the only soft power Hanuman has outside India being seen as a demonic statue.
Shows it takes more than just being a monkey with superpowers to be Wukong.
