[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 180323, member: 189"] Bangkok Sri Guru Singh Sabha is a JATT FREE Gurdwara..its run by the Bhapas - Business Community ( which includes SINDHIS/KHATREES HINDUS etc) and this is a Very CLOSE KNIT Community- these people intermarry..one son may be Hindu the other sikh daughters marry in and out of Hindu/Sikh Families...and the FEW "BUSINESS TYCOONS" actually CONTROL everything...same as in Sri guru Singh Sabha SINGAPORE..and GURDWARA TITIWANGSA in Kuala Lumpur...all these are under the tight control of the BUSINESS SIKHS. No jatts..no chamaars no chhimbas no kamboj..no majha no malwa no doaba sikhs..JUST BUSINESS COMMUNITY. This is different from Singh Sabhas run by jatts etc...there no one family or group of families is close knit..inter married..cousins and nephews etc...chahcas taiyas !! Mammas or fuffarrs... These Business Families HOLD VETO POWER..via the Land Title to the Gurdawra..close ties to each other...akin to What we call the MASONS...the ORDINARY SANGAT is comrprised of all sikhs..jattas etc and they are allwoed to come, have diwans weddings etc..BUT CONTROL remains in the "chosen few"...and these CHOSEN FEW..having HUGE BUSINESS EMPIRES and enough moneya nd power OUTSIDE the GURDWARA...are therefore "CORRUPTION FREE..not running for pardhaangee for the MONEY or power or position...hence its REAL SEWA..whereby they ahev to SACRIFICE tiem off from their buisnesses and run the Gurdwara...so we have the CHIT SYSTEM so its FAIRLY DONE and no one is unfairly pulled away from business too much...The JATT run Gurdwaars..the President etc is one who is pensioned policeman..ex-watchman..govt official..having LOTS OF FREE TIME..is in it for the Prestige..the money..power..etc etc..so THESE FIGHT tooth and Nail to RETAIN the pardhangee at any COST..hence the liqour and etc distributed..as in SGPC etc.. SO you find Jatt pardhaans spending GOLUCK MONEY to buy top knotch Presidential Furniture - at home all they have is a manja or old sofa...so they can lord it over the Granthi..sevadaars..gardneres etc...and order these around...sit in the chair at the Gurdwara Office and pretend they are Masters of an EMPIRE !!! Pick up the phone and calla the bank manager...(Running the GURDWARA ACCOUNT gives them "power" at the bank..call up Contractors and give them jobs...( and get them to do up their houses for free )..go to the Super Market and BUY rations like big time Restaurant owners !!! Wah..so many perks...who wnats to let go... I am writing from Personal observations after having lived in GURDWARAS for decades...!!! [/QUOTE]
