According to the source, the sayadaw is often invited to the royal palaces of Bhutan and Thailand.
His followers include prominent Burmese officials and rebel leaders, such as Khin Nyunt and Yawd Serk.
Before Khin Nyunt fall from power, he donated large amounts of money to the sayadaw.
It was around 2007 when the authorities put pressure on him to leave his monastery.
In the aftermath of the 2007 Saffron Revolution, the sayadaw was named in the list of patrons of the International Sangha Organization, led by the exiled Penang Sayadaw.
Subsequently, the authorities pressured the trustees of his monastery to sign a letter stating that it was not desirable for him to live in the monastery.
As a result, the sayadaw left for Thailand.

At the invitation of State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi, the sayadaw visited Nay Pyi Taw in 2016 and also visited the residence of Senior General Min Aung Hlaing during that visit.

In August 2022, he became ill and had to receive medical treatment at Bangkok Hospital after spending three years, three months, and three days meditating in the cave.
Thai media reports indicate that the Sayadaw has been diagnosed with cerebral malaria.
The King of Thailand, Vajiralongkorn, paid the expenses of the Sayadaw's healthcare, including his treatment at Bangkok Hospital.
