Mukdahan villagers Wake up an albino eel, arrange the 5 Khandhas, light incense sticks and pray for good fortune.
Mr. Samak Bunmawong, 53 years old, owner of a house in Mueang District, Mukdahan Province, took out an albino eel and locked it in a plastic basin. The body is 75 centimeters long and is soft white. The back of the albino eel is so clear white that the blood vessels can be seen. The eyes are black and look beautiful.
Mr. Samak Bunmawong said he went fishing in a creek near his house. I used a fish finder and saw a strange fish and thought it was a snake. I picked it up and found that it was an albino eel. Therefore, it was raised in a fish tank at home. According to the belief that it brings good fortune. The wife and neighbors set up 5 Khandhas and light incense and candles to pray for good fortune. And he sat and looked for numbers on the body of an albino eel. Saw the numbers 80 and 05 and intended to use them to buy lottery tickets to try their luck. Hope to have some big luck with him. In the past, my wife has been in contact with me for 5 installments. Someone asked to buy white eel but she didn't sell it. Believed to bring luck And there's always work coming in. In the past, I've seen it in the news as a golden eel. Never seen one as white as the one caught.
