Divorce in thailand

[rakthai]

I know it's not such a nice subject but has anyone divorced Their Thai wife? If so, why and for what reasons? Or has she divorced/left you?

The reputation of a Thai woman is to stand by her man whatever. Is this true ???

Not the sort of thing I wish to post on a public board.

Mail me off board.

I did once, with good reasons that I won't discuss. I initiated the divorce and it was quite easy, perhaps easier than it should have been. A trip back to the registration office and 500 baht. We were both restricted from getting married again for 1 year. That was back in... '99 or 2000 I think.

I don't know if the laws have changed any in recent years. It may not be so easy anymore.
