webfact Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Trusting farang robbed after leaving his money in the wardrobe Picture: Daily News UDON THANI: -- A German man is counting the cost of leaving his money in the wardrobe of his new Udon love nest. Rather than having the money in the bank the trusting German with a local Thai wife secreted his stash among the clothes in the bedroom cupboard. Wilaiwan Kaewudorn, 31, the German's wife, said they had only popped out for a moment to get some supplies but when they got back their bedroom door was open and there were signs of a forced entry at a window, reports Daily News. That's Wilaiwan in our photo pointing at where their 12,000 baht used to be. She added they had known each other for years but had only moved into their new home together a month ago. The burglary occurred at the Suksan housing estate in central Udon town. Police are investigating.

trogers Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I suspect the farang hides his money in this fashion back in farangland as well... It's a habit developed to handle hot money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadMuhummad Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 12K too difficult to carry? I carry 10-15 daily without an issue, far safer than a wardrobe where 'someone' can access it easily... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I understand all the accusations that it was the girl pointing in the OP making her guilty of the theft. According to the OP she was with her husband when the theft took place.

simon43 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Very hard to carry 12,000 baht in your wallet. Even worse for me working in Myanmar. 12,000 baht is about 450,000 kyat, which at the very least means 45 x 10,000 kyat notes. I usually carry a few hundred $ in a mix of 5,000 and 1,000 kyat notes. There is no way that you can fit that 'wad' into a pocket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
