kevc Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 "After searching the Internet during the day Fon heads to the Godiva Bar for an all-night shift desperately hoping to catch the eye of a foreigner. On the way she passes some of the biggest houses in the Province of Isaan. “The big houses are owned by women who married foreigners,” she says." This promises to be a really well researched programme with qoutes like the above, must be a hel_l of of a bus ride to work everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billp Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) It's a "Foreign Husband of the Year" contest in the Isaan village of Kranuan, Khon Kaen, Actually kind of sweet, seems to be part of the annual village festival. None of the women are raving beauties, and none of the guys look like huge prizes either, but all the couples look happy all the same.... #2 refers to one of the protagonists who's searching for a mate on the internet. After not having much success online, she heads for Bangkok, to the Godiva Bar, where several girls from the village already work (and some have apparently snared foreign husbands). She checks it out for a few hours to see if she could work there, but then slips away into the night, unable to bring herself down to that level.

EaglesGift Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) If you are a member of uknova you can download the programme from there (there were two of them). The first one was about a resort in Venezuela and the second one about Thailand. Not a great program, I thought the husband of the year contest was really tacky - can't believe anyone would actually enter it.
