Well they didn’t want to steal HER purse, that IS the woman’s bag!!! Since she told them where all the things would be, that saved a lot of time and they had a bag of their own to put the things in.

Sad to say farangs are a target in Issan villages. Our dog has been poisoned 4 times in the last few months, the last time only 2 days ago. We saved her again, baking soda and water forced down her throat using a large syringe. Why do they keep poisoning your dog ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only my dog mate, several dogs have been poisoned in the last few years. Wifes family have had 5 poisoned in the last 3 years. Our dog is fortunate, as when she eats the poison she always comes to us, and so far i have been able to help her. There is a serial dog poisoner here, but nobody seems to be able to catch him/her.

Obviously they'll go for the easy option that'll hurt the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisandsu Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Too many holes in this story . $10000 is around 300000 baht ... 5 baht of gold is 100000 baht (about) was he carrying another $15000 in cash ? Where did the gold come from? Sounds like an insurance claim to save face as he didn’t have the money for the wedding ! Plus if he’s paying sin sod for that lady he is already the laughing stock of the village ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNXexpat Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Sometimes I wonder where some guys found their wifes. 3 laughed about my comment, 2 are confused. My wife is well educated, I met her in Germany (the trip was a gift from her parents for her birthday), worked in 5* hotels abroad and her family is far away from poor. Nobody of her family asked me in the last 14 years for one single Baht. Perhaps my wife is really different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they close at 4:00clock. Anybody with only a little bit of common sense would have had the bag constantly in his eyes and arms. What's very sad is that he's planning to do a house merit which isn't cheap at all when the whole village shows up. My apologies, but how could his wife not have known that he had so much cash and gold? I'm not saying that she took the stuff, but she surely knows who did. And the TV spot was just a show. Of course does she love him too much, I get it. It's very sad and it will of course have a very negative view on Thai/Isaan people. They do not deserve that. I've left similar amounts at my parents in law's house and they've watched my stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ54 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I’ve lived in the village 3 years only thing ever missing was 1 or 70 potted plants and I think one of the in laws gave it to them. We don’t leave things laying around, Bedroom door is locked when we go somewhere. Small bolted down safe just to make it annoying if someone wants to try take it. IMO folks around here a good people and haven’t had any problems we do have 10 dogs ....only 6 here around the house.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife has no idea how much cash or what's in the bank. She can only guess. She sees I carry only a thousand baht at a time.

I'm amazed, especially young people in this age and time , still carry with them a lot of cash around when there are so many other options . Unless the money is 'dirty' of course.
