"All Thai women dream of marrying a foreigner" To be more accurate I think this sentence should be rephrased as: "Many Thai women in the working class dream of marrying a foreigner" In fact, "not ALL Thais are attracted by the foreigners" especially those who are the middle class and the rich.
I am English married to a Thai lady and we now live in Thailand. I totally agree, mostly Thai women from poor backgrounds perceive westerners as a means of escaping poverty, most of middle to upper class would not form relationships with farangs.
He's not guilty. Sounds like a lot of bad decisions on the girl's part. Also, you know nothing about the investigation. But because you're uninformed with poor logical reasoning skills, you believe he's guilty. You sound like one of those Free Palestine people. 🤣🤣🤣
Because there is no evidence against him -- he has talked to them many times and yet they still had nothing. Did you know Lamduan left him months before and moved out of their UK house?
@@AlreadyShort She was attacked by her husband many times! The last time Lamduan came back to Thailand bring her husband and her kids back to meet her parents. Her husband knows about Lamduan's inheritance. There is land that Lamduan's husband wants to sell. But Lamduan doesn't think like her husband. There was a quarrel. Because Lamduan called back to parents in Thailand for the last time. She mentioned this before she disappeared.
I follow and read news about Lamduan in Thailand. Once she had a son with her ex-husband.. She took her son come with her to live England. But her son didn’t live with her. Because her husband forced her son to live somewhere else.. probably at the church. It is currently unknown whether he is alive or not.
Education is important for women (and anyone) to avoid this kind of situation. To be financially independent is so important, no little girl grows up wishing to be bought as a wife or have to look for a random guy overseas to have a better life. If you have money, it is also easier to walk away from an abusive situation
That's what I teach my daughter, be independent don't rely on anyone because once u do they think they own u. I feel so bad for this woman n her children r.i.p 🙏🏽
Online dating apps are full of playground for narcist. It's dangerous when you don't know what you are dealing with. Beware it not worth risking your life. This very sad.
Not exactly, because there're some of educated thai women, bachelor's degree, ir ecen ph D who still want a white foreigner husband, today is not just about financially it is about some thai women who is planning her future ,their only target is to marry a white guy and live happily ever after in western countries and become their citizens, these thai women can show people off how she and her white husband so much in love but when the roman ce is gone and true colors appear , they'd need a help
Dear all thai ladies, I’m thai too and I would like to tell you all that if you want to have foreigner husband you have to be able to become independent too. Be able to communicate, to work by yourself for whenever your husband is not the person you think he was or should be, just kick him out and have your own life with your kids. If you can’t do that don’t risk your life with foreigner husband. Life sometimes unpredictable and you have to be able to stand by yourself 💪🏻 as strong independent woman. Husband and wife are equal as a human.
Thai women today are not that naive after all the years of this happening. This was 20 years ago and the family deserve answers. The police never took it seriously. Cannot believe this creep of a man is living back in Thailand and working at.a university. with vulnerable students. Unbelievable!
A couple of years ago, I met a young Thai woman (mid 20s) who was living in the UK with her much older British husband (he was in his 50s). He was by no means rich, they rented 1-bedroom flats in cheap towns, she had to commute several hours each way to her job as a factory cleaner, while he was working as a security guy of some sort (he was ex Army). Still, I guess she was happy with the money. She was quite 'difficult' and seemed to have the upper hand over him. I've also met another Thai woman who was on her 3rd British husband, all of her husbands were retired guys, the first 2 ones had died of 'natural causes' and the 3rd one was headed this way (dialysis, stroke etc.). She was on her way to become a millionnaire and definitely not the submissive and docile, or the gentle angel kind, but she was quite a narcissist and quite good at fooling men that she would love them and take good care of them and I guess that it's difficult for men whose health is deteriorating and who are not very mobile to get sex, so getting a Thai wife might seem a solution. Still, I wondered whether she managed to get married a 4th time.
I am surprised by inability of the British police to investigate this case. They gave empty words and took no action. The only person of interest in this case is this lady’s husband. The police could use physical evidence to search the spouse, but they did not. It looks like they don’t want to be bothered.
10:50, I don’t know if anyone noticed that husband’s words, “she takes good care of me, she gives me massages, she cuts my nails etc” that sounds like he married her so he can get a free maid.
Yeah right to me if you can’t take care your own crap 💩 how are you going to be my partner. 😂 The bad thing is she probably pampered him the way he described which is sad.
I just feel so bad for these women. They think they will have a good life with these white men, and some probably do. But to treat someone as a slave or subordinate is just low. I hope one day they will escape with better prospects. Language barriers and stereotyping Westerners as being like God is very sad to see. Life in the west is not always what they imagine. It's a very different lifestyle and culture.
ANYONE whatever nationality, if you are in an abusive situation NEVER tell your partner that you are leaving !!! Be smart about it and be prepared. Don't leave until you have some money hidden away for bus,train or air flights. Remember, never threaten to leave or you will be stopped one way or another.....be wise....not dead !!!
This is outrageous! Definitely something off with David! Her poor children brought up thinking she ran off with another man when in fact she’s dead is just dreadful!!
I think - saying this from a personal experience - it's probably more to do with the £20,000+ it would cost to repatriate, which governments typically do not cover. Not excusing, just explaining.
@@beemarron3642 But he shows absolutely no emotion or care for moral right, nor the grieving family. At least he could try to raise the money. What about Crowd Funding? He is so fat, he could spend less on food. I bet he is married again in Thailand?
There are even worse situations in Africa - child brides due to poverty and no money for school fees. Family needs monetary help. Treated like meat and used for breeding and domestic servitude, but not given medical treatment for effects on the body. Some children (girls) are given to a creditor as a slave to work off a debt by a late male relative. The debt can be passed down generations. The girl is a domestic drudge and raped by the male creditor. When or how will there be proof of repayment?
Exactly, imagine northern England only alcoholics and sheep are there. Local police is struggling to identify a foreign woman for years. Benny Hills was showing truth about UK police when we thought it was exaggeration for the sake of a comedy
Can anyone elaborate why her husband is still running loose in Thailand? The way he ran off without cooperating with this reporter is unhinged. He knows why she’s dead. He probably killed her.
He did not file the police report, was uncooperative, & controlling! Her body should be returned to her family - this is a controlling behavior! Karma will come to those that harm her!
@@scottandrews947 so you're saying it's ok for white men to buy thai women, but those thai women are behaving badly by being bought, and if they get murdered it's definitely their fault, yes?
I suppose those stereotypes towards Asian women still endure, especially in the West ; they are calm and submissive so easy to control which does disgust me (I'm Japanese.). I think it's a very immature personality and disrespectful for women. At the same time, I am glad to see those Thai women decided to set up a community to help each other...I hope it will help them find peace of mind...
People don't think that about Japanese women anymore. The west just laughs at the women in your country and how your selfishness will lead to population collapse, which will only hurt you in the long run. 🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely. Look at that German guy in the video. He just wants a women to clean up after him, to cut his toenails and give him a massage. Gross. The huge power imbalance of poor Thai, or other Asian women, seeking a foreign husband who can provide them ‘a better life’, it’s just not right.
A lot of men in the west that cannot attract women here go to Asia to find someone who will put up with all their nonsense; you rarely see a top guy who is handsome or charming doing this… the Western men go there to get women to be like their maids… awful 😢
they are not calm or submissive...they just do that to escape poverty in their own country! A women who can get a man to better her life is not naive but rather very clever! I have seen many asian women that once they marry for a green card they transform and try to take charge of the money! These women need to change their mentality and get an education
100%! I always view people with suspicion who travel to a whole different country to find a spouse. I always think there is something wrong with them that nobody in their entire home country wants them.
@SunIsSunnySunnyIsSunny well that's not always the reason, often they just want a more traditional less feminist type woman..but sad that some are exploiting or abusing these women. It would be sadly easier for an abuser from anywhere in the world to isolate his wife elsewhere
The fact the husband hasn’t dedicated his life to finding out what happened to his wife is telling for me. Seems nonchalant. Like he doesn’t give a shit. Why’s that I wonder
Appears the husband will get away with murder as the police both in the UK and Thailand are placing very little to no effort into investigating this case. I`ve no idea what that creep does and how he supports himself in Thailand and why that too is not investigated.
Why can’t UK police demand an interview with him? It doesn’t sound like she had any other peers except her family here so he is the closest suspect - and him allegedly saying years ago he’s ‘bored of it all’… he stinks of guilt. RIP Lamduan.
@@clivebaxter6354As a half Thai I can see this being a possibility. Although thai police have got better recently so I’d hope they wouldn’t allow that.
@@leaa1243 they won't question him because that's how the West always behaves. They give their citizens license to kill, as long as they kill only foreigners. Any attempt to bring the killer to justice will be thwarted by them.
@@leaa1243 Most situations in the US police always aims at the spouse or the significant others first if there was a crime committed. I have known two cases in Germany that husband killed his Thai wife a mother of their 4 children, burned her in his own back yard just because she refused to sleep with him. The authorities locked him up for 2 days then let him go since there no witnesses to go on with the case all kids are very young to tell them what happened to their mother. The other woman was also of my mother’s friend she spent the night at our place left the next morning said need to get back to her place to pack she’s planned to leave her German boyfriend. Well she never showed up, after two weeks went by they found her body tide up with the rope floats at the dock in Rhine river, they’re questioned the boyfriend but he was not arrested this is probably 38 yrs ago!
Poor lady, I remember reading about this case years ago. Never forgot it and I always wondered why we never heard anymore. RIP beautiful lady, people know of your existence & your death. You’ll never be forgotten.
He's been interviewed many times by the police of the UK and Thailand=--they have no evidence against him. His wife left him months before she was killed and I suspect fell in with a bad crowd.
Please also make this documentary available in Thai. As well as covering more on risks, scams and cases where Thai AND Asian women believe they are marrying up, but in reality being tricked or trafficked by their own partners/husbands. I used to interpret for trafficked Thai women seeking asylum in the U.K or wish to return home. Many of the cases I worked on were women forced into sex trade by their own husbands OR scammed by individuals promising these ladies with jobs abroad. Luckily they managed to escape and got help, but am sure many more aren't so lucky... I now live in Germany and even though I'm trilingual, I can really say life abroad is not easy and as an asian woman, you face a lot of institutional prejudice as well. I'm also in a facebook group for thai people in Germany and every now again, you'll get posts from women seeking help because their husband got aggressive and they managed to lock themselves in a room away from harm. These women had no idea who to turn to, they had no idea which organizations can help. Luckily the thai community are so open to help, and manage to alert the right authorities.
I'm so glad that women are actually finding support! Back in 2006/7 when I lived in Germany my mother would go for her German classes and had a Thai classmate. Her husband was so cheap he refused to buy her pads for her menstrual cycle because he was saving for "safari". She was unemployed, couldn't speak German and her stay in the country was dependent on him. We left to go to Kenya so we have no idea what happened to her, but it's great to know that they are groups who now support women like her.
Thai is a growing country. Most women don't date foreigners anymore because they could make their own money. The only ones that get caught up with this are the really poor and really stupid ones. The world is not exactly better off with them in it and some wealthier guy in another country gets his rocks off. I don't see a problem here.
As a foreigner living in Thailand, we have no rights, treat like 3rd class citizens, many foreign men end up bankrupt, attacked, and even dead at the hands of Thai women. Point being, although not a good situation for them, foreigners coming to the UK are treat a lot better than foreigners coming to Thailand, and it's not just women who are abused
This documentary left me with many questions that they didn't answer. Like, was she living with her husband when she disappeared? If so, did he report her as missing straight away? What did she die of? Was her body injured, or was it suicide? I'm sure the UK police investigated the death, so what did they find? The husband did not come across well in the brief encounter they had which doesn't look good for him.
This is such a sad story,RIP Lamduan ✨🙏🏾 Thoughts and prayers for her family. I really hope they solve this case. It’s bizarre that the reporter would ask David if he killed his wife and his response is about the email 😮 Why wouldn’t he want to co-operate for the sake of her children. That seems very odd.
Meeting a local here either in same town or country is tough as is, meeting one completely from a different country & culture is not a fairy tale. Never was! It's more of a predator than LOVE. As a Buddhist & an Asian woman, it is sad & always tragic.
@10:30 “ she take care of me well”. What a shame a grow man saying this. This is the problem so many Uk men have a mother complex that they are looking for wife who will take care of them as a mother. Just said.
So true! I am not saying he is a bad person but I got to say he supports this old-fashioned idea that Women are supposed to serve men and he's happy with his marriage because his wife fulfills it. SIgh....
@@sky-pv7ff ... I think that is a myth and not common any more. Thai women are also heavily into social media and are not the naive submissive women they might have been 20 years ago. My Thai wife is far from submissive and certainly lets me know when she is not happy about something. I just asked her and she tells me to cut my own fingernails, but she will give me a massage and I will give her one when she has aches. That's called taking care of each other with love.
@@sbalogh53 Than why married a foreigner. I thought Westerners went to third world countries looking for a poor desperate female to marry and supposedly submissive. Do you have to take care of her whole family.
If he had no criminal background and this investigation is recent, then they would not have known he was suspicious. I wonder how long he will keep his job now that this killing has come to light because he will be an embarrassment to the university.
Having worked in Thai schools, it is 100% possible that foreign criminals can work in schools, universities and other educational institutions here. They sometimes don't do comprehensive background checks, and even if they did, people could get away with crimes in their home country before moving here. 😐
Why so many years before proper investigation into her death? The wife of the German man who said that it is dependent on your luck is right. Meanwhile being independent is one of the best things that a woman can have in life.
1. Because no one cares about a Thai woman in Europe. Literally no one gives a shit if one goes missing cause most Europeans hold bias towards them. Nobody cares about a foreigner from a developing country, and specially under the current xenophobic and racist climate, where Europeans have never been more negative towards immigrants. 2. The wife of the German guy is a subservient idiot who cuts her husbands toe nails, like a servant, so she can get a comfortable roof tf And then has the nerve to blame what happened to these other women on their luck and quote “love karma”, refusing to see that if that’s so then she should watch out for hers, because she’s made their exact same dumb choice, and were she in Germany with that guy she would have to do way more than clip his dirty, ugly toe nails like a servant. Her story would most probably, and still might most probably, be the same as these women’s, if they move to Germany. So she should stfu, and get off that high horse! Because what she got is what western women would call an undesirable, and she is NOT by any measure any better off than all the other poor South East Asians that marry western guys to avoid poverty. They are ALL married to the devil, every single one of them. 3. True about women and independence. This world’s biggest not so hidden secret is that men need women more than the other way around. Most western females have long understood that, and are happy being and staying single, free and financially independent. These poor South East Asian women still have the world to learn, and are exactly where western women were say 50 years ago. Sad!
Totally agree. First figure out how to make a living for yourself and live within the means that work provides you. Then seek a husband for a partner and helpmate and father. You will have full confidence you can support yourself and your children if things go sour. A man who lays his hand on you is not a worthy father
His university and any employer the husband has should be made aware of the circumstances surrounding his wife's death. The husband should be investigated to discover whether he is in a relationship with another Thai women. The Thai police should demand the husband provide information.
Now I question the authenticity of these wedding licenses; where are they recognized and honored? The unreported dead wife is suspicious enough to warrant a criminal investigation. And typically, the partner is questioned…FIRST!
The fat blob even parked his bike, which was too tiny for him - about to break in two - where the damn sign specifically says NO PARKING FOR MOTORCYCLES!! 🤣 He seems inclined to break the laws in BOTH countries!! This is too obvious what this monster is capable of. And I’m just a random observer 🤣🤣🤣
It's a filthy, guilty coward who runs away; he has to remain in control like all abusers, keeping her body from her loving family. I'd love to see him fired from his job, he's nothing but a monster. I wonder if there are any missing women in his area since his poor wife? I'm so sorry for what her family is enduring.
May Lamduan's soul rest in peace. I feel sorry for her parents, they are very old, waiting for contact and waiting daughter to come home, with all their breath.
I feel so sad for this poor ladies family and friends. I hope that the police can return her body to Thailand so that her soul will finally be able to rest 🙏. As for that piece of crap she married, he should be in prison.
How heartbreaking for her mum as well as the rest of her family.. I can only imagine the sheer desperation and sense of impotence this woman must have felt when her daughter disappeared. I pray she can move on after so many years
Ive had many thai friends whove had terrible lives with foreign husbands . Sadly i feel for them i dont think they are marring up . Lots just work are told they have no rights at all no money they are treated like the hired help . DISGUSTING.
Being taken care of like that German guy was talking about is nice at first but then it comes overbearing. Many men probably think that's it great so marry the girl and take her home. Once overseas, she is completly dependent on the man as isolation sets in. This can be a recipe for disaster, so they need those support groups to enable them to celebrate their own culture etc. It's a sad story for sure and the least he can do is give permision to send her remains home.
If a man truly loves his wife then he should strive to teach her independence when back in his home country. In my opinion crucial steps would be to encourage her to attend English classes, help her to find work so that she has her own money and life experiences outside of the family home, encourage her to find friends especially Thai friends, and help her with anything that prevents her from being isolated inside a house for most of her days. But most of all care for her and love her as a human being. She is not a slave, a servant, or submissive property. Since so many older men marry young Thai wives, I wonder how many have considered what will happen to these younger women when he dies which is likely in most cases. She needs to learn independence before that happens. I cannot imagine how a man can hurt a woman he supposedly loves, let alone kill her. It is beyond horrific to me.
@@sbalogh53 Westerners go to poor country looking for wives to take care of them and not to go work. Of course, they should speak the language in the country they are living in. Her job is to take care of the family. If he dies, I am sure she'll be looking for another white male. If she's so lonely she shouldn't have married a foreigner. Smh
@sbalogh53 Oh, you're poor who married a Westerner. I am talking about third-world countries. Yeah, I heard some Ukrainians female marry white Westerners. But I don't think it's as desperate as other third-world countries.
As a Thai woman i feel very sad to hear all Thai women want to marry foreigners. It is just not true. Many of us are independent and educated enough to have a better life without marrying foreigners. I felt sorry for her family but totally disagree with what an old lady said. WTH he is in Thailand!?!...and still on the loose....
Truth is a lot of foreign women who married overseas men (not just Caucasians) find themselves married to irresponsible men who are just using them. The few Thai ladies I know who married farangs are now working harder to raise their families and looked after their lazy or much older spouses. That's the reality. Open your eyes wide. Be independent. You don't need a man to live a fulfilling life.
I’m sorry but if your “wife” is mysteriously dead you would for sure co operate with the authorities even if you wanted “peace and quiet”!?!The second couple is very strange as well with the way the German guy spoke about his Thai wife
The police prob don't think she was worth investigating. Watch when one day they connect him to another murder and realized that this could have been prevented from him taking another life...then these cops are going to find a million excuses for their actions. They are suppose to serve and protect. They need to do more than just hand out tickets. Murder is deeper than this.
Plssss Uk police do something to solve this case!!! How possible he wasn’t investigated??? And what does it mean to him “ the lady of the hills?” Sounds like she was a stranger to him. Now he’s free and have a good life in Thailand as a teacher and possibly remarried.
Maybe he was just citing examples of how caring his Thai wife compared to his German wife. He stressed that he didn't ask for her to, but she's observing and do it when it's time. But yeah, that was a bit awkward when there were other examples he could've cited. I have a foreign husband, but I've never trimmed his fingernails or toenails, and he never asked and won't let me do it even if I offered, haha.
This world is full of darkness and is only getting worse...I am sure the husband did something, if he did not report his wife missing, then he must have been involved.
That place looks cold and bleak. The lady's body needs to be returned to her family in Thailand, it should not be up to her dodgy husband to say yes or no. 💐. It is most sad that poverty pushes women into leaving their families in search of a better life in the West. There was a case on the ID channel where an American Scout leader murdered his Asian wife, dumped her far in the wilderness and told the two children she had returned to her country. It was many long years before her skull was found by walkers and forensics worked with that, building a cast, doing drawings that people recognised and identified. The husband was convicted.
Study history, it’s not exactly difficult to figure out. Western powers have impoverished countries throughout Asia, Africa and South America through trade and diplomacy at gun point. They’ve used their military power as leverage for unfair deals and included whichever rulers they could corrupt by cutting them in while cutting the rest of the population out financially. The result is rural poverty and countries where the ruling elite are more interested in maintaining their power than empowering their own citizens with education. This, as well as western media promoting white beauty standards, and misogynistic ideas about women being only good for marriage and kids, means that many poor people with few prospects see a white husband for their daughters as being their family’s way out of poverty and struggle , seeing as they have few other ways out. Sometimes the idea is pushed by the family, sometimes it is the women who pursue it as they have little to no idea about the legally, financially and socially vulnerable position they will be in when they travel to the west.
Because the alternative is a lot worse and poverty. Men are success objects, women are beauty objects. They wouldn’t marry the Western guy if he had no money to at least give the impression of having money.
I often wondered about this case since they found her as a Jane Doe in such a strange location, I’m so happy she has been identified but who is responsible must face justice
So heartbreaking to still see this today, please please educate yourself before moving yourself across half of the world. At least be able to communicate in local language and be financially independent to safeguard yourself. If your spouse is controlling your social and financial life, be even more prepared and escape for your own sake...
Poverty puts you at such a disadvantage, you are vulnerable and at the mercy off others more well off. Bet you the Husband has another Thai woman. The thing is Thai women believe Farangs are very rich, yes rich when they convert their money into Baht only. I could only imagine their dissapointment when they get to England and realise those men are usually are rejects, they are the men British women don't want and not so well off by UK standards.
A DEMISED body of a YOUNG woman found CLOTHLESS .. took a decade for the Police to know her life was taken away? What?? The obvious was not evident enough?
You wife doesn't just disappear and you never report it to the police and cut ties with her family! Why is he allowed to get away with being uncooperative by the U.K and Thai authorities? This just smells guilty, guilty, guilty
May justice be served! He has to be extradited and may her family find peace. ❤❤❤ No matter how difficult life becomes back home, my people will never let their daughters marry foreigners and now i can see why.
'You must find a rich man who will pay all your bills' as I've been advised to do for now 3 decades. Some women will find, not just a husband (or boyfriend), but a pimp. The loverboy technique is used a lot with Eastern European women, it is featured in the TV series Human Trafficking, with Donald Sutherland and Mira Sorvino. I've come across a few of these guys myself, I've also met a lot of older women who offered to 'help' me, i.e. they wanted me to move in with them and their boyfriend, and then I would meet 'nice men' and 'spend a nice moment' with them... One of these women who was anxious for me to move in with her was Ghislaine Maxwell (when I was much younger). Her boyfriend was Jeffrey Epstein.
Most Thai women especially in rural areas were looking for a better life so they tend to get themselves in trouble. Unfortunately many of them lost their lives or get abused. They do not have a voice to represent them to get help or justice. On the other hand many foreign men look for women to be their slaves. This whole thing is heartbreaking.
Surely the woman saying she’s being hit is enough ? Why would any woman go through the aggro of saying that if she’s not? If he’s basically being ok with her and they are in love she’s not gonna bother🙃
WWHHHHYYYY is the UK police twiddling their fingers on this? WHY is the husband, who is most likely to be the perpetrator not questioned and investigated? He just didn't feel like it? And the UK police are ok w/ this? What am I missing?
I hope one day this story can be on Netflix, to let more public know and aware about the husband. Who knows that can push the case to the end of the tunnel and show some light. RIP lady. 🙏🏼
Hopefully justice will be served for her one day, along with the countless of foreigners that have lost their lives under very suspicious circumstances in Thailand also. 🙏🏻
I live in America and I can relate , I am divorced live by myself, I do have an adult son I raised by myself. Most important thing for woman especially foreign woman need to have some education background so they can work and live in foreign land and raise their children be free if your marriages or relationship fails. I was working and I did further my education here and was able to survive by myself after my marriage ended. Keep connection with your local people in foreign land . Find association pertains to your country or relates to foreign help that connects to your country. I had many friends helped me to survive here. I connect to the Asian people here in USA to have some support group emotionally. I do have foreign lady friends help a lot too. Just a note as woman of any race or nationality domestic abuse happens to anyone anywhere and we woman have to make sure we can survive if something happen so be carefull out there.
In this case, it is Thai women, but there are many women from many different backgrounds. The way some British men behave once women are in the UK is appalling. The police in many cases, are not helpful to the victims. It is sad, dangerous, and extremely stressful. There is a lot of uncertainty, and women live in fear of having their children taken away.
It's extremely sad to see them got abuse and no family support or help them. Some family ignored abuse in Thailand or other country. Woman wants to be help as well. Do not go back to abusive man.
"All Thai women dream of marrying a foreigner"
To be more accurate I think this sentence should be rephrased as:
"Many Thai women in the working class dream of marrying a foreigner"
In fact, "not ALL Thais are attracted by the foreigners" especially those who are the middle class and the rich.
Exactly!
I am English married to a Thai lady and we now live in Thailand.
I totally agree, mostly Thai women from poor backgrounds perceive westerners as a means of escaping poverty, most of middle to upper class would not form relationships with farangs.
Spot on, and there are plenty of men who gleefully take advantage of these women's economic situation.
Not all, exactly, if they are financially comfortable, most people prefer someone from their own country/culture
@@antonglas7488- Marrying farangs is now wide spread in Thailand. Movie stars do the same.
Why can't this husband be summoned by police he looks as guilty as charged .. His uncooperative behavior tells it all
He's not guilty. Sounds like a lot of bad decisions on the girl's part.
Also, you know nothing about the investigation. But because you're uninformed with poor logical reasoning skills, you believe he's guilty. You sound like one of those Free Palestine people. 🤣🤣🤣
Agreed! His demeanor is very sus!
Evidence?
@@davidjma7226 saying his wife moved away when she was dead???
Because there is no evidence against him -- he has talked to them many times and yet they still had nothing. Did you know Lamduan left him months before and moved out of their UK house?
I am an Asian woman and I m happily married to an Asian man and I never had the need to marry a foreigner.
He killed his wife and is now living in Thailand freely. This 💩 bag needs to be locked up 4 the rest of his life. No justice for Lamduan Seekanya.
and what did she do to him?
@@AlreadyShort She was attacked by her husband many times! The last time Lamduan came back to Thailand bring her husband and her kids back to meet her parents. Her husband knows about Lamduan's inheritance. There is land that Lamduan's husband wants to sell. But Lamduan doesn't think like her husband. There was a quarrel. Because Lamduan called back to parents in Thailand for the last time. She mentioned this before she disappeared.
I follow and read news about Lamduan in Thailand. Once she had a son with her ex-husband.. She took her son come with her to live England. But her son didn’t live with her. Because her husband forced her son to live somewhere else.. probably at the church. It is currently unknown whether he is alive or not.
Education is important for women (and anyone) to avoid this kind of situation. To be financially independent is so important, no little girl grows up wishing to be bought as a wife or have to look for a random guy overseas to have a better life. If you have money, it is also easier to walk away from an abusive situation
👍👍👍👍
That's what I teach my daughter, be independent don't rely on anyone because once u do they think they own u. I feel so bad for this woman n her children r.i.p 🙏🏽
Its difficult coming from poverty and you want to escape it, and farangs know these women are desperate for a better life.
Online dating apps are full of playground for narcist. It's dangerous when you don't know what you are dealing with. Beware it not worth risking your life. This very sad.
Not exactly, because there're some of educated thai women, bachelor's degree, ir ecen ph D who still want a white foreigner husband, today is not just about financially it is about some thai women who is planning her future ,their only target is to marry a white guy and live happily ever after in western countries and become their citizens, these thai women can show people off how she and her white husband so much in love but when the roman ce is gone and true colors appear , they'd need a help
Dear all thai ladies, I’m thai too and I would like to tell you all that if you want to have foreigner husband you have to be able to become independent too. Be able to communicate, to work by yourself for whenever your husband is not the person you think he was or should be, just kick him out and have your own life with your kids. If you can’t do that don’t risk your life with foreigner husband. Life sometimes unpredictable and you have to be able to stand by yourself 💪🏻 as strong independent woman. Husband and wife are equal as a human.
The men prefer the ones that don't really speak English

Thai women today are not that naive after all the years of this happening. This was 20 years ago and the family deserve answers. The police never took it seriously. Cannot believe this creep of a man is living back in Thailand and working at.a university. with vulnerable students. Unbelievable!
The police don't do anything about rape or domestic violence unless the victim go to the media
They speak Lao. They are poor esan women.
This is more than 30yrs ago
A couple of years ago, I met a young Thai woman (mid 20s) who was living in the UK with her much older British husband (he was in his 50s). He was by no means rich, they rented 1-bedroom flats in cheap towns, she had to commute several hours each way to her job as a factory cleaner, while he was working as a security guy of some sort (he was ex Army). Still, I guess she was happy with the money. She was quite 'difficult' and seemed to have the upper hand over him. I've also met another Thai woman who was on her 3rd British husband, all of her husbands were retired guys, the first 2 ones had died of 'natural causes' and the 3rd one was headed this way (dialysis, stroke etc.). She was on her way to become a millionnaire and definitely not the submissive and docile, or the gentle angel kind, but she was quite a narcissist and quite good at fooling men that she would love them and take good care of them and I guess that it's difficult for men whose health is deteriorating and who are not very mobile to get sex, so getting a Thai wife might seem a solution. Still, I wondered whether she managed to get married a 4th time.
@@yehmen29 wow she made it into a living career 😂
I am surprised by inability of the British police to investigate this case. They gave empty words and took no action. The only person of interest in this case is this lady’s husband. The police could use physical evidence to search the spouse, but they did not. It looks like they don’t want to be bothered.
10:50, I don’t know if anyone noticed that husband’s words, “she takes good care of me, she gives me massages, she cuts my nails etc” that sounds like he married her so he can get a free maid.
Yeah right to me if you can’t take care your own crap 💩 how are you going to be my partner. 😂 The bad thing is she probably pampered him the way he described which is sad.
Yes and he has no shame at all
@@Yesterwoman
Nope seems proud instead. My husband would never talk about me like that, he wanted massage I just bought him a massage chair 😂😂
They have zero self awareness
I just feel so bad for these women. They think they will have a good life with these white men, and some probably do. But to treat someone as a slave or subordinate is just low. I hope one day they will escape with better prospects. Language barriers and stereotyping Westerners as being like God is very sad to see. Life in the west is not always what they imagine. It's a very different lifestyle and culture.
ANYONE whatever nationality, if you are in an abusive situation NEVER tell your partner that you are leaving !!! Be smart about it and be prepared. Don't leave until you have some money hidden away for bus,train or air flights. Remember, never threaten to leave or you will be stopped one way or another.....be wise....not dead !!!
This is outrageous! Definitely something off with David! Her poor children brought up thinking she ran off with another man when in fact she’s dead is just dreadful!!
The fact that he won't let her body be repatriated when he doesn't even live in the UK is outrageous!
I think - saying this from a personal experience - it's probably more to do with the £20,000+ it would cost to repatriate, which governments typically do not cover. Not excusing, just explaining.
@@beemarron3642 But he shows absolutely no emotion or care for moral right, nor the grieving family. At least he could try to raise the money. What about Crowd Funding? He is so fat, he could spend less on food. I bet he is married again in Thailand?
There are even worse situations in Africa - child brides due to poverty and no money for school fees. Family needs monetary help. Treated like meat and used for breeding and domestic servitude, but not given medical treatment for effects on the body. Some children (girls) are given to a creditor as a slave to work off a debt by a late male relative. The debt can be passed down generations. The girl is a domestic drudge and raped by the male creditor. When or how will there be proof of repayment?
How is it the police not suspecting a foul play when a naked woman found in deserted Moor?? How can it take ages to suspect it?! Outrages!
The body was badly decomposed and the cause of death unknown.
Exactly, imagine northern England only alcoholics and sheep are there. Local police is struggling to identify a foreign woman for years. Benny Hills was showing truth about UK police when we thought it was exaggeration for the sake of a comedy
Apparently they just cant investigate every case since it's just too common for naked women to run around moors and drop dead all of a sudden....?
She’s not white
@@mpalmer7800 loser
At least the UK Police gave her a decent burial shame on the husband whose obviously guilty of his wife's death
Can anyone elaborate why her husband is still running loose in Thailand? The way he ran off without cooperating with this reporter is unhinged. He knows why she’s dead. He probably killed her.
No waaay, he is in Thailand?
@@mingshifan Funny you'd comment without watching the vid.
He did not file the police report, was uncooperative, & controlling! Her body should be returned to her family - this is a controlling behavior! Karma will come to those that harm her!
This is so obvious
11:22 karma is a religious justification for victim blaming and for bystanding.
He bought her and owns her. He probably was money hungry and lazy and used him as an ATM. This is how poor people from third world countries act.
@@scottandrews947 so you're saying it's ok for white men to buy thai women, but those thai women are behaving badly by being bought, and if they get murdered it's definitely their fault, yes?
@@scottandrews947 .... He was not her ATM. She worked and her money went into HIS account. She had no money. She was his ATM.
I suppose those stereotypes towards Asian women still endure, especially in the West ; they are calm and submissive so easy to control which does disgust me (I'm Japanese.). I think it's a very immature personality and disrespectful for women.
At the same time, I am glad to see those Thai women decided to set up a community to help each other...I hope it will help them find peace of mind...
People don't think that about Japanese women anymore. The west just laughs at the women in your country and how your selfishness will lead to population collapse, which will only hurt you in the long run. 🤣🤣🤣
It is disgusting. I also wish that Thai (Asian) women had more opportunities so they didn't need to glorify western men.
Absolutely. Look at that German guy in the video. He just wants a women to clean up after him, to cut his toenails and give him a massage. Gross. The huge power imbalance of poor Thai, or other Asian women, seeking a foreign husband who can provide them ‘a better life’, it’s just not right.
A lot of men in the west that cannot attract women here go to Asia to find someone who will put up with all their nonsense; you rarely see a top guy who is handsome or charming doing this… the Western men go there to get women to be like their maids… awful 😢
they are not calm or submissive...they just do that to escape poverty in their own country! A women who can get a man to better her life is not naive but rather very clever! I have seen many asian women that once they marry for a green card they transform and try to take charge of the money! These women need to change their mentality and get an education
Many of them their abusive character is the reason why they never got a British woman though, I believe so.
Interesting
Booze and porn influenced
100%! I always view people with suspicion who travel to a whole different country to find a spouse. I always think there is something wrong with them that nobody in their entire home country wants them.
@SunIsSunnySunnyIsSunny well that's not always the reason, often they just want a more traditional less feminist type woman..but sad that some are exploiting or abusing these women. It would be sadly easier for an abuser from anywhere in the world to isolate his wife elsewhere
The fact the husband hasn’t dedicated his life to finding out what happened to his wife is telling for me. Seems nonchalant. Like he doesn’t give a shit. Why’s that I wonder
Appears the husband will get away with murder as the police both in the UK and Thailand are placing very little to no effort into investigating this case.
I`ve no idea what that creep does and how he supports himself in Thailand and why that too is not investigated.
He works at Rajabhat University in Kanchanaburi as shown at 19:48 and no doubt he has found another Thai woman to abuse.
They've got nothing to work with. No witness, no weapon, no cctv evidence. Without any evidence they cannot prosecute.
Why can’t UK police demand an interview with him? It doesn’t sound like she had any other peers except her family here so he is the closest suspect - and him allegedly saying years ago he’s ‘bored of it all’… he stinks of guilt. RIP Lamduan.
They cannot do that, this creep could have paid the Thai cops off
@@clivebaxter6354As a half Thai I can see this being a possibility. Although thai police have got better recently so I’d hope they wouldn’t allow that.
@@clivebaxter6354 the creep here is you who's trying to paint the Thai police bad when it's your police that's clearly the bad and corrupt one.
@@leaa1243 they won't question him because that's how the West always behaves. They give their citizens license to kill, as long as they kill only foreigners. Any attempt to bring the killer to justice will be thwarted by them.
@@leaa1243
Most situations in the US police always aims at the spouse or the significant others first if there was a crime committed. I have known two cases in Germany that husband killed his Thai wife a mother of their 4 children, burned her in his own back yard just because she refused to sleep with him. The authorities locked him up for 2 days then let him go since there no witnesses to go on with the case all kids are very young to tell them what happened to their mother.
The other woman was also of my mother’s friend she spent the night at our place left the next morning said need to get back to her place to pack she’s planned to leave her German boyfriend.
Well she never showed up, after two weeks went by they found her body tide up with the rope floats at the dock in Rhine river, they’re questioned the boyfriend but he was not arrested this is probably 38 yrs ago!
Poor lady, I remember reading about this case years ago. Never forgot it and I always wondered why we never heard anymore.
RIP beautiful lady, people know of your existence & your death. You’ll never be forgotten.
Shady husband, should cooperate fully if he's got nothing to hide. Poor woman.
He's been interviewed many times by the police of the UK and Thailand=--they have no evidence against him. His wife left him months before she was killed and I suspect fell in with a bad crowd.
Please also make this documentary available in Thai. As well as covering more on risks, scams and cases where Thai AND Asian women believe they are marrying up, but in reality being tricked or trafficked by their own partners/husbands. I used to interpret for trafficked Thai women seeking asylum in the U.K or wish to return home. Many of the cases I worked on were women forced into sex trade by their own husbands OR scammed by individuals promising these ladies with jobs abroad. Luckily they managed to escape and got help, but am sure many more aren't so lucky...
I now live in Germany and even though I'm trilingual, I can really say life abroad is not easy and as an asian woman, you face a lot of institutional prejudice as well. I'm also in a facebook group for thai people in Germany and every now again, you'll get posts from women seeking help because their husband got aggressive and they managed to lock themselves in a room away from harm. These women had no idea who to turn to, they had no idea which organizations can help. Luckily the thai community are so open to help, and manage to alert the right authorities.
I'm so glad that women are actually finding support!
Back in 2006/7 when I lived in Germany my mother would go for her German classes and had a Thai classmate. Her husband was so cheap he refused to buy her pads for her menstrual cycle because he was saving for "safari". She was unemployed, couldn't speak German and her stay in the country was dependent on him.
We left to go to Kenya so we have no idea what happened to her, but it's great to know that they are groups who now support women like her.
Thai is a growing country. Most women don't date foreigners anymore because they could make their own money. The only ones that get caught up with this are the really poor and really stupid ones. The world is not exactly better off with them in it and some wealthier guy in another country gets his rocks off. I don't see a problem here.
As a foreigner living in Thailand, we have no rights, treat like 3rd class citizens, many foreign men end up bankrupt, attacked, and even dead at the hands of Thai women. Point being, although not a good situation for them, foreigners coming to the UK are treat a lot better than foreigners coming to Thailand, and it's not just women who are abused

Heart breaking stories, denying loved ones their child in just cruel.
Husband is definitely guilty 💔💔💔💔💔
I hope the truth will be revealed as soon as possible
100% respect to this investigative reporter... Prayers for you and your work.
This documentary left me with many questions that they didn't answer. Like, was she living with her husband when she disappeared? If so, did he report her as missing straight away? What did she die of? Was her body injured, or was it suicide? I'm sure the UK police investigated the death, so what did they find? The husband did not come across well in the brief encounter they had which doesn't look good for him.
They said he didn't report her
This brought tears to my eyes. I really hope justice is served.
Thank you very much for watching.
She gives him massages, oh my god and she cuts his finger nails without him having to ask, that's a mum not a wife, shame on you
Servant or a maid

This is such a sad story,RIP Lamduan ✨🙏🏾 Thoughts and prayers for her family. I really hope they solve this case. It’s bizarre that the reporter would ask David if he killed his wife and his response is about the email 😮 Why wouldn’t he want to co-operate for the sake of her children. That seems very odd.
He is GUILTY
Meeting a local here either in same town or country is tough as is, meeting one completely from a different country & culture is not a fairy tale. Never was! It's more of a predator than LOVE. As a Buddhist & an Asian woman, it is sad & always tragic.
Not always, but I see where you are coming from.
From all the solved cold cases that I've seen if the husband doesn't report his missing wife who ends up dead, he's almost always the one who did it
@10:30 “ she take care of me well”. What a shame a grow man saying this. This is the problem so many Uk men have a mother complex that they are looking for wife who will take care of them as a mother. Just said.
Seriously I 🤢 at that like cut your own damn nails
I thought the females were supposed to be submissive. That's why Westerners go there to marry them.
So true! I am not saying he is a bad person but I got to say he supports this old-fashioned idea that Women are supposed to serve men and he's happy with his marriage because his wife fulfills it. SIgh....
@@sky-pv7ff ... I think that is a myth and not common any more. Thai women are also heavily into social media and are not the naive submissive women they might have been 20 years ago. My Thai wife is far from submissive and certainly lets me know when she is not happy about something. I just asked her and she tells me to cut my own fingernails, but she will give me a massage and I will give her one when she has aches. That's called taking care of each other with love.
@@sbalogh53 Than why married a foreigner. I thought Westerners went to third world countries looking for a poor desperate female to marry and supposedly submissive. Do you have to take care of her whole family.
How on earth could that Rajabhat (Teacher Training) in Kanchanaburi hire a foreign guy with such suspicious and probably criminal background?
If he had no criminal background and this investigation is recent, then they would not have known he was suspicious. I wonder how long he will keep his job now that this killing has come to light because he will be an embarrassment to the university.
Having worked in Thai schools, it is 100% possible that foreign criminals can work in schools, universities and other educational institutions here. They sometimes don't do comprehensive background checks, and even if they did, people could get away with crimes in their home country before moving here. 😐
They often never check
His students stopped going to his classes when this story first broke about 10 years ago
so the film is that old?@@stevesmith2373
Why so many years before proper investigation into her death? The wife of the German man who said that it is dependent on your luck is right. Meanwhile being independent is one of the best things that a woman can have in life.
1. Because no one cares about a Thai woman in Europe. Literally no one gives a shit if one goes missing cause most Europeans hold bias towards them. Nobody cares about a foreigner from a developing country, and specially under the current xenophobic and racist climate, where Europeans have never been more negative towards immigrants.
2. The wife of the German guy is a subservient idiot who cuts her husbands toe nails, like a servant, so she can get a comfortable roof tf And then has the nerve to blame what happened to these other women on their luck and quote “love karma”, refusing to see that if that’s so then she should watch out for hers, because she’s made their exact same dumb choice, and were she in Germany with that guy she would have to do way more than clip his dirty, ugly toe nails like a servant. Her story would most probably, and still might most probably, be the same as these women’s, if they move to Germany. So she should stfu, and get off that high horse! Because what she got is what western women would call an undesirable, and she is NOT by any measure any better off than all the other poor South East Asians that marry western guys to avoid poverty. They are ALL married to the devil, every single one of them.
3. True about women and independence. This world’s biggest not so hidden secret is that men need women more than the other way around. Most western females have long understood that, and are happy being and staying single, free and financially independent. These poor South East Asian women still have the world to learn, and are exactly where western women were say 50 years ago. Sad!
Totally agree. First figure out how to make a living for yourself and live within the means that work provides you. Then seek a husband for a partner and helpmate and father. You will have full confidence you can support yourself and your children if things go sour. A man who lays his hand on you is not a worthy father
His university and any employer the husband has should be made aware of the circumstances surrounding his wife's death. The husband should be investigated to discover whether he is in a relationship with another Thai women. The Thai police should demand the husband provide information.
They could just deport him and ban him from the country. He is a danger to Thai girls and women.
Exactly!!!
They could kick him out if they wanted to, they don't really need a reason other than undesirable
They've known for about 10 years but since there is no concrete evidence against, he is presumed innocent until proven guilty
so why not give DNA sample@@stevesmith2373
Now I question the authenticity of these wedding licenses; where are they recognized and honored? The unreported dead wife is suspicious enough to warrant a criminal investigation. And typically, the partner is questioned…FIRST!
He continues to abuse her even in her death. I can't
The fat blob even parked his bike, which was too tiny for him - about to break in two - where the damn sign specifically says NO PARKING FOR MOTORCYCLES!! 🤣
He seems inclined to break the laws in BOTH countries!! This is too obvious what this monster is capable of. And I’m just a random observer 🤣🤣🤣
Why is the husband so defensive. If he's innocent he should have nothing to hide
It's a filthy, guilty coward who runs away; he has to remain in control like all abusers, keeping her body from her loving family. I'd love to see him fired from his job, he's nothing but a monster. I wonder if there are any missing women in his area since his poor wife?
I'm so sorry for what her family is enduring.
He stopped the daughter from being questioned by authorities. She should be old enough now to testify on her own?
May Lamduan's soul rest in peace. I feel sorry for her parents, they are very old, waiting for contact and waiting daughter to come home, with all their breath.
What a sad story, the fact that these women have so protection is terrifying. Thank you for shining a light on them
The women are just as guilty of using the men though.
I feel so sad for this poor ladies family and friends. I hope that the police can return her body to Thailand so that her soul will finally be able to rest 🙏. As for that piece of crap she married, he should be in prison.

Ive had many thai friends whove had terrible lives with foreign husbands .
Sadly i feel for them i dont think they are marring up . Lots just work are told they have no rights at all no money they are treated like the hired help . DISGUSTING.
This is so infuriating. If this happened to my child and the police cannot give me justice, I'll get the justice myself.
.
😢...poor girl....poor parents.I can't imagine how they could live without there daughter. I don't believe in governance anymore
Being taken care of like that German guy was talking about is nice at first but then it comes overbearing. Many men probably think that's it great so marry the girl and take her home. Once overseas, she is completly dependent on the man as isolation sets in. This can be a recipe for disaster, so they need those support groups to enable them to celebrate their own culture etc. It's a sad story for sure and the least he can do is give permision to send her remains home.
Then they should marry their own people.
If a man truly loves his wife then he should strive to teach her independence when back in his home country. In my opinion crucial steps would be to encourage her to attend English classes, help her to find work so that she has her own money and life experiences outside of the family home, encourage her to find friends especially Thai friends, and help her with anything that prevents her from being isolated inside a house for most of her days. But most of all care for her and love her as a human being. She is not a slave, a servant, or submissive property. Since so many older men marry young Thai wives, I wonder how many have considered what will happen to these younger women when he dies which is likely in most cases. She needs to learn independence before that happens.
I cannot imagine how a man can hurt a woman he supposedly loves, let alone kill her. It is beyond horrific to me.
@@sbalogh53 Westerners go to poor country looking for wives to take care of them and not to go work. Of course, they should speak the language in the country they are living in.

As a Thai woman i feel very sad to hear all Thai women want to marry foreigners. It is just not true. Many of us are independent and educated enough to have a better life without marrying foreigners. I felt sorry for her family but totally disagree with what an old lady said.
WTH he is in Thailand!?!...and still on the loose....
I hope she will get justice for her life. Poor woman . May god rest her soul
Truth is a lot of foreign women who married overseas men (not just Caucasians) find themselves married to irresponsible men who are just using them. The few Thai ladies I know who married farangs are now working harder to raise their families and looked after their lazy or much older spouses. That's the reality. Open your eyes wide. Be independent. You don't need a man to live a fulfilling life.
It’s so sad to hear the stories 😢🙏
I’m sorry but if your “wife” is mysteriously dead you would for sure co operate with the authorities even if you wanted “peace and quiet”!?!The second couple is very strange as well with the way the German guy spoke about his Thai wife
Sad! May she rest in peace. 🙏
She deserves Justice.
The police prob don't think she was worth investigating. Watch when one day they connect him to another murder and realized that this could have been prevented from him taking another life...then these cops are going to find a million excuses for their actions. They are suppose to serve and protect. They need to do more than just hand out tickets. Murder is deeper than this.
Plssss Uk police do something to solve this case!!! How possible he wasn’t investigated??? And what does it mean to him “ the lady of the hills?” Sounds like she was a stranger to him. Now he’s free and have a good life in Thailand as a teacher and possibly remarried.
Shame , someone gets away with murder . The murderer is still free and lives his life .
the comment about his Thai wife cutting his nails. It's like he want a mother not a partner
Maybe he was just citing examples of how caring his Thai wife compared to his German wife. He stressed that he didn't ask for her to, but she's observing and do it when it's time. But yeah, that was a bit awkward when there were other examples he could've cited. I have a foreign husband, but I've never trimmed his fingernails or toenails, and he never asked and won't let me do it even if I offered, haha.
Husbands workplace should be made aware of this ! He lied to his children she remarried, sus!
This world is full of darkness and is only getting worse...I am sure the husband did something, if he did not report his wife missing, then he must have been involved.
That place looks cold and bleak. The lady's body needs to be returned to her family in Thailand, it should not be up to her dodgy husband to say yes or no. 💐.
It is most sad that poverty pushes women into leaving their families in search of a better life in the West.
There was a case on the ID channel where an American Scout leader murdered his Asian wife, dumped her far in the wilderness and told the two children she had returned to her country. It was many long years before her skull was found by walkers and forensics worked with that, building a cast, doing drawings that people recognised and identified. The husband was convicted.
Sad! Why are these women so fascinated by foreigners? I have seen this trend amongst Vietnamese and Filipinas as well.
Study history, it’s not exactly difficult to figure out. Western powers have impoverished countries throughout Asia, Africa and South America through trade and diplomacy at gun point. They’ve used their military power as leverage for unfair deals and included whichever rulers they could corrupt by cutting them in while cutting the rest of the population out financially. The result is rural poverty and countries where the ruling elite are more interested in maintaining their power than empowering their own citizens with education. This, as well as western media promoting white beauty standards, and misogynistic ideas about women being only good for marriage and kids, means that many poor people with few prospects see a white husband for their daughters as being their family’s way out of poverty and struggle , seeing as they have few other ways out. Sometimes the idea is pushed by the family, sometimes it is the women who pursue it as they have little to no idea about the legally, financially and socially vulnerable position they will be in when they travel to the west.
Because the alternative is a lot worse and poverty. Men are success objects, women are beauty objects. They wouldn’t marry the Western guy if he had no money to at least give the impression of having money.
Husband possibly murdered her.. high possibility. Why has he not been arrested and questioned???
Exactly.
2:30 “All Thai women want to marry farang? Noooooo Only poor Esan people think like that.
I often wondered about this case since they found her as a Jane Doe in such a strange location, I’m so happy she has been identified but who is responsible must face justice
So heartbreaking to still see this today, please please educate yourself before moving yourself across half of the world. At least be able to communicate in local language and be financially independent to safeguard yourself. If your spouse is controlling your social and financial life, be even more prepared and escape for your own sake...
Poverty puts you at such a disadvantage, you are vulnerable and at the mercy off others more well off. Bet you the Husband has another Thai woman. The thing is Thai women believe Farangs are very rich, yes rich when they convert their money into Baht only.
I could only imagine their dissapointment when they get to England and realise those men are usually are rejects, they are the men British women don't want and not so well off by UK standards.
You hit the nail on the head. The men here from the west are often the worst of the worst, most Thai women don’t get it.

You wife doesn't just disappear and you never report it to the police and cut ties with her family! Why is he allowed to get away with being uncooperative by the U.K and Thai authorities? This just smells guilty, guilty, guilty

'You must find a rich man who will pay all your bills' as I've been advised to do for now 3 decades. Some women will find, not just a husband (or boyfriend), but a pimp. The loverboy technique is used a lot with Eastern European women, it is featured in the TV series Human Trafficking, with Donald Sutherland and Mira Sorvino. I've come across a few of these guys myself, I've also met a lot of older women who offered to 'help' me, i.e. they wanted me to move in with them and their boyfriend, and then I would meet 'nice men' and 'spend a nice moment' with them... One of these women who was anxious for me to move in with her was Ghislaine Maxwell (when I was much younger). Her boyfriend was Jeffrey Epstein.
Wow are you serious!! Where did you meet maxwell? In Thailand?
He is guilty as clear as the blue sky here in Phuket, Thailand.
The fact she was found dead half naked in the river already raised suspicion that she was murdered.
Most Thai women especially in rural areas were looking for a better life so they tend to get themselves in trouble. Unfortunately many of them lost their lives or get abused. They do not have a voice to represent them to get help or justice. On the other hand many foreign men look for women to be their slaves. This whole thing is heartbreaking.
Surely the woman saying she’s being hit is enough ? Why would any woman go through the aggro of saying that if she’s not? If he’s basically being ok with her and they are in love she’s not gonna bother🙃
Because they are dreaming to marry a western man ,when that is their dream ,they will do anything necessary.
Rest in Peace, lady of the hills. 😢
WWHHHHYYYY is the UK police twiddling their fingers on this? WHY is the husband, who is most likely to be the perpetrator not questioned and investigated? He just didn't feel like it? And the UK police are ok w/ this? What am I missing?
I hope one day this story can be on Netflix, to let more public know and aware about the husband. Who knows that can push the case to the end of the tunnel and show some light.
RIP lady. 🙏🏼
Ladies take photos use your phones and record hidden
How can a half naked body not be suspicious?
Hopefully justice will be served for her one day, along with the countless of foreigners that have lost their lives under very suspicious circumstances in Thailand also. 🙏🏻
"We were very close":.... "the body was found 10 years later"
She had no one literally and too submissive to ask for help from anyone.

Poor mum 😢😢😢
I live in America and I can relate , I am divorced live by myself, I do have an adult son I raised by myself. Most important thing for woman especially foreign woman need to have some education background so they can work and live in foreign land and raise their children be free if your marriages or relationship fails. I was working and I did further my education here and was able to survive by myself after my marriage ended. Keep connection with your local people in foreign land . Find association pertains to your country or relates to foreign help that connects to your country. I had many friends helped me to survive here. I connect to the Asian people here in USA to have some support group emotionally. I do have foreign lady friends help a lot too. Just a note as woman of any race or nationality domestic abuse happens to anyone anywhere and we woman have to make sure we can survive if something happen so be carefull out there.
In this case, it is Thai women, but there are many women from many different backgrounds.
The way some British men behave once women are in the UK is appalling.
The police in many cases, are not helpful to the victims.
It is sad, dangerous, and extremely stressful.
There is a lot of uncertainty, and women live in fear of having their children taken away.
When will we stop describing women as objects???
It's extremely sad to see them got abuse and no family support or help them. Some family ignored abuse in Thailand or other country. Woman wants to be help as well. Do not go back to abusive man.
Plenty of foreigners have been murdered in Thailand
This man should be jailed
