19.01.2022 BUDDHIST BIGOT UPDATE: Thank you everyone for your support of The Haunted Bookshop’s religious discrimination case against Buddhist bigot David Yu, which has now entered VEOHRC mediation. It seems your collective thoughts have manifested a split-personality Tulpa in the form of (1) vampirologist Anthony Hogg, who has lobbied Victorian Small Business Commissioner Judy O’Connell to investigate this property tycoon’s dodgy dealings, and (2) metaphysicist She DMontford, whose Magick Magazine urges politicians and news services to not only investigate Mr Yu’s pernicious practices, but for the Victorian Government to strip his Buddha’s Light organisation of its Multicultural Award for Excellence:

03.01.2022 Culture war, religious war or race war? It turns out wealthy Melbourne property developer, Mr David Yu, who rejected my lease application because of his spiritual beliefs, is accused of launching an Asian invasion and of transforming a part of Melbourne by stealth. He is President of the Buddha’s Light International Society of Victoria, an organisation that last year won Victoria’s Multicultural Award for Excellence, yet according to this article he squeezed out Melbour...ne’s Greek precinct by evicting non-Asians from his properties and erecting For Lease signs in Chinese inviting Tai Chi, tea house and Chinese acupuncture businesses to apply. His company Ausvest owns 41 properties across Melbourne, including in Toorak and the CBD, which tells us that, as leader of a religious group that rejects greed and material desires, he has no problem amassing a vast material fortune. Plus his Buddha’s Light Society hosts Melbourne’s annual Buddha’s Day Festival which promotes vegetarian food and much more - yet he has no problem having McDonald’s as a tenant but not The Haunted Bookshop. Why? Was I really rejected because of your religious beliefs, Mr Yu? See more

01.01.2022 Here’s an interesting response from a Melbourne leasing agent whose client, a high-profile member of the Buddhist community, told her ghosts are demons. How is this not discrimination?
