johnhw Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 44 minutes ago, EnlightenedAtheist said: Tragic event. What are the implications of filing for a divorce in Thailand? In the West, the guy loses 1/2 of his shirt and usually the custody of the children plus the requirement for alimony? Is it the same here? Rather straightforward query & observation of fact. However, precariously close to criticism of The Sisterhood and not tolerated these days. ergo, no responses. Have you noticed that the worst Feminazis are men?

joecoolfrog Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I was just talking to my girlfriend about this , she actually lives in Sai noi and was shocked. She thinks there are too many crazy people walking about with guns , hard not to agree , and that situation is not Thailand specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens every day of the week in the west, more than in the US though I don't disagree with the argument you make about education. It's as low over there as here in many ways and a gun culture almost as bad to boot. Assuming your point about other countries is right, that doesn't make what I said B. What I said is still valid. As for your point about the West, well might apply in selected cases, perhaps, perhaps not, but not to the same level, based on my experience. An example from a drive this evening, lasting about 25 minutes, just now ending, saw about 3 or 4 cases. But my key original point was, it's not Thai bashing, it stupid behaviour bashing. Even if stupid behaviour happens everywhere, it's still just bashing the stupid behaviour that we observe here. It's simple, it's clear, it's not B.

This purely a jealous and possessive man who decided if I can't have her no one will.. It has zero to do with loss of face. If it did then every divorce would end with death here. The misunderstanding of the Loss of face here is staggering Happens the world over and the West don't understand loss of face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madusa Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 20 hours ago, fantom said: I am familiar with many of the points raised by this very sad case, however mainly from a western viewpont and practice. Does anybody on this forum know what options were available to this woman. For example if she went to the police do they have any protocols in place ? Also is there anything along the lines of family shelter? do any of the temples provide shelter? I am wondering just what practical options are open to a woman locked into a violent / abusive relationship in Thailand. I am not sure in Thailand if women badly abused (physical violence) are still consider domestic problem so police refuse to intervene until someone dies. Anyone has knowledge of how far the violence perpetuate before police will stop this violence or has the legal authority to intervene? Someone day in and day out beat his wife can get away with this violence? I think in Britain it comes under "assault and battery" you will be charge with this crime whether you are married or not.

But again, its rare that they even use the horn compared to my home country sweden. I see angry and upset thais occasionally, but i have never seen violent behavior except on the news.

I feel sorry for his son. RIP. Mentally ill? The husband was pissed because he was watching his fragile life, everything he cared about in the whole world, go right down the toilet. I feel sorry for the father who survives and must live with the memory of his dead child and grandson. I really feel like there ought to be more sympathy expressed for this terrible tragedy.

Grauwulf Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Whatever the reasons Thai or Western this is indeed a tragic, highly emotional case. You have to see both sides of the coin. Distraught father/ husband. We cannot judge. The mind is fragile. These things happen all over the world I.e. Murder/ suicide.

max2u Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 12 hours ago, Notadoctor said: I can't believe that some people are so low as to turn this into an anti-Thailand tirade. Really, the foul stench of pompous presumption and 'Western' chauvinism suggests some few of these posters should either lay off the sauce or find themselves a fighter to knock some sense into their biased brains--or what remains of such tissue. I'm not at all surprised that the majority of posters know that murder(s)>suicide is far from rare when a contested or contemplated separation between a woman and an abusive man gets the heat turned up. FACT is that murderous 'would-be' exes are most often already 'domestic' abusers. What *may* have been 'off the blotter' was whether police had previously been 'passive partners of permission' WRT domestic disputes gone violent--and this, too, IF it had been, is FAR from a *Thai* 'deficit of responsibility,' as previous histories of violence are common as dirt in any and every culture where male dominance is yet to become an artifact of ugly traditions (and in certain cultures, is regarded as 'god-given right!)
