An expat slapped by a monk on a train in Thailand wants to put the incident behind him, saying he is 'sabai' (fine) about it, after video of the bizarre assault went viral.

The video shows the English teacher being struck across the face by the Buddhist monk after an apparent misunderstanding over seats.
The man, wearing a pink shirt and three quarter-length shorts, appears to speak with an Australian accent, claiming he was hit 'three times' by the monk.

A police officer soon arrived and removed the monk from the carriage to end the incident, which took place on December 7 on a train travelling from Bangkok to Phitsanulok, according to the Bangkok Post.
'Jeff', as he was later named in a video statement posted to Facebook by his neighbour Noojeab Kuntao, said he was 'sabai, sabai' meaning he was fine.
'To me sabai, sabi,' he says. 'Thailand is Thailand, I love living in Thailand.' He said.
