"Mr Durian" gets more than he bargained for after advertising his daughter for 10 million baht!

 

Picture: Daily News

 

The wealthy durian trader who advertised the hand of his daughter in marriage for ten million baht is regretting his decision. 

 

The phone hasn't stopped ringing and it is adversely affecting his business. Tens of thousands of calls have come in and he only has one phone. 

 

In addition dozens of men have turned up at the family business in Lang Suan, Chumpon, to apply. 

 

Even foreigners have been calling from as far afield as Sweden. 

 

Daily News reported that Anon Rotthong, 59, also known as Pa Non (sugar daddy Non) had advertised his daughter Karnsita as being available.

 

The prospective son-in-law just needed to be able to read and write, be hard working and not lazy, not be wasteful of money - oh, and he had to love durian.

He hoped to get someone to help with the family business based in Lang Suan in Thailand's south.

 

In return he would give the successful man 10 million baht, ten cars and a house.

 

No dowry was necessary at all. 

 

Soon the calls started flooding in. A heartthrob in Trat by the name of Geo  or Premyosapon Khongsai emerged as a front runner but Anon saw through him.

 

He thought he was "too handsome" and would probably do the dirty on his daughter.

 

Anon told Daily News that the whole thing had become a headache as the phone had not stopped ringing and he only had one line to do business. 

 

Calls had flooded in from Thais as well as foreigners. People had called from China, Sweden, Japan and South Korea. 

 

Foreign film crews were coming to interview him. 

 

But worst of all were the hundreds of people who just wanted to borrow money and take his beloved daughter as a "mia noi" (minor wife or mistress). 

 

Dozens of hopeful men aged 25 - 30 had turned up at the durian business in pick-ups, he said. 

 

(Pick-ups! Oh the horror!! was the implication)

 

Hundreds called to say they would meet Karnsita or "Nong Karn" on April 1st.....

 

It is all becoming a bit much agreed the lady at the center of the story:

 

"Dad just meant for the post to go to close friends and associates. It was a bit of fun," said Karn. "Now the whole world is beating a path to our door".

Problem now is, it is going to be hard for her going forward, is the guy really interested in her ? or what they can get through her. I expect that doubt will be there for a long time. She'll be suspicious of everyone that comes near her. 

[Eric Loh]

Maybe it's a PR stunt for his durian business. Now he is known internationally. Nice. 

[BestB]

To be honest I do not get it, she is very cute, why did she have problems getting a guy?

[smedly]

she now needs protection

 

rather stupid thing to do

[BigT73]

Looking at the photos you'd  think thats his GF.

[AhFarangJa]

He needs more Amulets..............

Ten cars? I know Thai drivers aren't the best and have many accidents, but who the **** needs 10 cars?

This is a grossly misleading title. It implies that he is selling his daughter for 10 million. But a reading of the article shows the exact opposite.

[fruitman]

Now i understand why durian is so expensive....

[bendejo]

I think of durian as something that stinks and is not permitted in some hotels.

 

 

[silverhawk_usa]

The whole article doesn't make sense.  The headline and the opening says he is OFFERING his daughter for 10 million baht.   Then it says "In return he would GIVE the successful MAN 10 million baht, ten cars and a house." "No dowry was necessary at all".

Confused.

I'd bang her for nothing.

Would even throw in a free dinner and drinks.

Explain that; what he offered was not at all typical of Thailand or Thai people generally.

[Liverpudlian]

Well ! something stinks about this .

My take on it is that she hasn’t had a problem but she may have been very choosy. Dad did say he’ll pay the 10mil to ‘someone that can win my daughters heart’, no mention of problems 

[sammieuk1]

It appears he has a hand on the jewels before the dowry gets paid out ????

Once they have narrowed the numbers down to a few dozen, maybe she should have try outs as to which suitor is most compatible in bed?

I  think he  should  have at least as  many amulets as the Father if not  more, preferably be   almost unable to walk due  to the weight

It don't really matter because as soon as the bun is in the oven the guilty party will be on his heels and never seen again..

Take a look at daddy and it'll dawn on you.

Plus a life of bondage.

 

On another note, I have a much better deal for that bloke: Give me only 5 million baht and a few of your amulets, keep your daughter, the house and the cars, and I'll throw in a second phone line for free.

That excludes most Thai men then.

[JimmyJ]

10 cars - why would anyone want anywhere near that unless a collector of classics?

Was he joking?
