The Abbot of Shaolin Temple, Shi Yongxin, will lead a delegation to perform Kung Fu in Thailand.

Shi has been the subject of a recent online accusation, which says he has embezzled property from Shaolin Temple, tarnished the temple's reputation, and leads an indecent personal life.

The China News Service reports that the Kung Fu performance is part of a celebration marking the birthdays of Thai Queen Sirikit and Thai Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn as well as the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relationship between China and Thailand.

According to a Thailand-China industrial and business association, the Kung Fu group consists of 100 members and the performance is expected to be staged on August 2 at Royal Thai Navy Convention Hall in Bangkok.
