rip man u were the coolest man ever
I removed the "citation needed" from Tep Vong, the supreme patriarch who succeeded Maha Ghosananda. It is a publicly known, obvious, accepted historical fact. It would be like giving a citation that Pope Benedict succeeded Pope John Paul, or president Bush followed President Clinton.

[edit] Date of Birth
The official press release of his obituary from the International Community of Khmer Buddhsit Monks Center lists his date of birth as May 23, 1913. This is at variance with many published accounts that he was born in 1929. It is suggested that the descrepany is explained by the probability that the Cambodian authorities gave him an artificial date-of-birth in order to meet age restrictions when he went to study for his doctorate degree in India in the 1950s.
