webfact Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Thai women travelling alone abroad: Authorities assume sex work Picture: Thai Rath A Thai woman went online to recount her experiences of being banged up in a Johur Bahru immigration cell for three days. But posters told her that it was par for the course - Thai women travelling abroad alone especially to other places in Asia are often assumed to be working in the sex industry. The woman said on Pantip under the name "Fernchiu" that she had been to Malaysia in the past with friends and family to Kuala Lumpur. She arrived at Johur Bahru airport at midnight with no Ringgit but told immigration that she intended to change Thai money with a friend she would be staying with who would be going to Thailand later. Picture: Thai Rath She had no hotel booking as she was staying with the friend, she said. Immigration put her in a cell. They allegedly refused to let her contact the friend who was waiting outside the airport. She managed to get help after exchanging notes with an Indonesian woman who was also being held and appeared to be in the next cell. Comment online basically said: What do you expect? Thai women travelling to places like Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and Korea have usually told their families they are going to work in salons or restaurants. Then they sell sex. No wonder the authorities in these countries are suspicious. Source: Thai Rath -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2018-09-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugothai Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Sure, they tell to families that go to work in restaurant, and later they send home a lot of money, but the families go on to believe that they are working in a restaurant.....thai hypocrisy....i dream one day will finish this culture, because it's a shame for Thailand!!!!

BobBKK Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Who would go to another country without some local currency? but apart from that stupidity it's totally monstrous not to let her contact her friend outside to confirm the circumstances.

Chris Lawrence Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Just need to look at marriage certificate. If married within the last 2 weeks, they probably have other things on their mind. The new husband is not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do it all the time. Airports usually have ATMs, and I like to look around before I book into a hotel. Been to Kuala Lumpar many times, never had any Ringgit or accommodation, VISA waiver on entry for 90 days, and all they require is you have a ticket out within that time frame. Loads of exchange booths at the airport, I change 1,000bht which is plenty for the bus into town and dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Miller Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Not just in neighboring Asian countries. Tried to help get a visitor's visa to the US for a Thai lady friend. She is almost picture perfect for one, ten years in a responsible job, elderly parent, just purchased a new car, new house, etc. Everything that says she is going to come back. Learned after she was turned down that there had recently been a scandal involving a Thai "sex ring" in the US, and was told that embassy, Homeland, etc. personnel had been instructed to assume....

And, they have mostly earned the reputation. They earn it by routinely over staying visas, working illegally and engaging in all kinds of shady business. And, Thais with money and education are often worse than their less educated countrymen. The problem here is culture. Most everyone aspires to exploit and break laws and rules.
