SPIRITUAL adviser Chou Kim Nam - the White Dragon King - who is popular among Hong Kong artistes, has been warded in a hospital in Thailand, Sin Chew Daily reported.

Six nurses are taking care of him at its Intensive Care Unit.

One of his students said Chou fainted about a week ago.

"He is expected to be discharged in a couple of days," said the student.

"But he needs a good rest and will not receive any visitors."

Among Chou's followers are Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Eric Tsang, Alan Tam, Leon Lai, Shu Qi and Andy Lau.
