In a bid to find their missing son, the parents of 19-year-old American, Steven, have taken to social media. Steven disappeared from Phuket's Mueang district three weeks ago, last seen with his bicycle. His parents, addressing platforms and local media like The Thaiger, appeal for public help.

 

Steven left home on February 17 and hasn't been heard from since. His mother, Srj Snyder, noted in a social media post that he was in a black T-shirt, green jeans, and carrying a blue backpack with a black bottom when he went missing. An adventurous spirit, Steven enjoyed outdoor activities like fishing and woodcrafts but has left no clues in his usual haunts, like shipyards or boat piers.

 

 

Importantly, Steven left home without a mobile phone nor any money, which is out of character. His parents, receiving no substantial leads from local police, turned to an online community, enlisting help from expatriates and local businesses aware of his disappearance. However, they noted limited awareness among Thai residents.

 

The family now hopes that media coverage will increase visibility of Steven’s case. They’re urging anyone with information to contact Srj Snyder via her Facebook account, seeking any clue that might bring their son home, reported The Thaiger.

Has Phuket got an equivalent to soi 6. 

 

He'll appear shortly, when the girls are done with him. 

 

He will need a dose of penicillin and a tube of herpes cream.

Bangla Rd in Patong or an area in Karon.

Reading between the lines here it seems the family are living in Phuket and this lad is a 'run-away'...  

 

Three weeks is a long time though..  he's a foreign national (assume not a Thai - foreign national) - did he have is passport with him etc ?

 

He could simply be working on an island somewhere etc...  

 

Hope he's ok...  Pretty wrong to disappear like that so I wonder what was going on at home to drive him again like that - its personal stuff, but definitely missing from the story.

I doubt if they are interested in someone without money.

'without any money' - does that just mean 'cash'... or cash and cards ?

 

Could he have access to a Bank account i.e. take his Bank Card with him ? and if so, can it be tracked if he used it ?

Have you been to soi 6 lately? 

 

Most of the girls are overweight, in their 20's, unable to get a customer. 

Smelly, horny, fat things looking for a young guy to shag for free, they're not getting customers.

 

I'd say there's a dirty soi in Phuket where you will find this missing guy.

Is he the father of the unborn foal?

 

 

[Evil Penevil]

Maybe his mother should look for him in a pub, like Dublin's famous The Bleeding Horse?

 

 

And if he's a fan of variety:

No money, no honey, no phone

This is very concerning especially for his parents

Does it make a difference? No.

 

[it is what it is]

 

while it must be worrying for the parents, at 19 years he is a adult and if he wants to take off then it's his business. there are often two sides to every story, possibly at 19 he has very good reasons for wanting to leave the home and not contact his family.

Them were the old days when some one want to get old of you they would ring the pub, 

 

[grumpyoldman]

According to certain posters, since he had no money he is not welcome in Phuket anyway.

[sfbandung]

It's hard to rule out anything for a bloke who likes to shag animals. He is clearly very broad minded. Maybe he has left to enjoy a more rural lifestyle.

[Yagoda]

Drugs. Give a kid some Ketamine and off we go, zombie time

[NorthernRyland]

So this is the horse molester kid from last year in Phuket? Why didn't he get deported and why is ASEAN now posting this story as if it's some heart break we should all care about?

Has he hurt you... It's obvious he has a problem, but that doesn't mean you need to be so heartless.

[neeray]

KINKY boy, definitely has issues. Hope they can be handled (I mean, dealt with).

[tamsam6]

Looks like this boy could use some help

Looking at his mum's Facebook page it appears she's Thai.  

Hope he turns up and is ok.
