Foreigner Buys Land in His Cambodian Wife's Name In Siem Reap; Loses Everything
Re: Foreigner Buys Land in His Cambodian Wife's Name In Siem Reap; Loses Everything
This case sounds similar to the one in Phuket Thailand which has even led to Jonathan Head, the BBC's Bangkok-based South-east Asia correspondent being effectively detained in Thailand. This is because the lawyer acting for the wife in this case decided to sue Jonathan Head for criminal defamation just because he was doing his job as a reporter.
And don't be too critical of the person in Cambodia who has been scammed because one of the victims in Thailand who went from a £2 million fortune to virtually being destitute and also still being detained in Thailand (because he was also sued for defamation just for trying to get his money back) was a qualified UK chartered surveyor and property valuer

British expat Ian Rance and Irishman Colin Vard are now living almost penniless with their children on the outskirts of Bangkok as they struggle against overwhelming odds to recover properties they bought on Phuket. Both men lost all their investments through frauds that neither of them imagined were possible.
"I'd made my money in England and had enough to retire I thought. I was looking for a place that was warm, a place that had some rule of law, where I could live in safety and peace," says Rance, a chartered surveyor and professional arbitrator from Hertfordshire, who arrived in Phuket in 2000.
"When I came to Thailand on a trip to Australia it sort of seemed to fit the bill."
In 2001 Rance met and married a Thai woman called Suda and went on to have three children with her. The prime minister at the time, Thaksin Shinawatra, had started a programme called "Thailand Elite", through which he hoped to attract wealthy foreigners to settle by allowing them to own small amounts of land, something not normally permitted under Thai law.

CEO received this email recently:
"Dear,
There is a publication with my photo, my name and also the photo and the name of Mister Sourng Sophea about a man who lost his money because his wife sold the land behind his back.
Is it possible to cancel this publication because it is not true and you can imagine what this kind of things can create on our own life.
Thank you for your comprehensive,
Adrien MARVILLE"

Ah, he's the accused. He's accused of being in cahoots with the Khmer lawyer to screw the foreign husband. He should just post his side of the story.

He said his picture was shown, but we didn't show that, so I assumed it was the accuser, who's Facebook pic is posted here. Seems he needs to take it up with Eric Aerden.

French and a fucking lawyer and he thinks he could possibly have a good name and reputation to protect?

First of all, respect to the originl poster for having the guts to admit what happened, and the grit to name the perps.
Now on to my question.
Why would a fellow buy land in the lady's name, when Cambodia is said to permit Barangs to buy land? (Unlike anywhere else in Asia.)
I moved here 2 weeks ago, so if I am missing something, please feel free to set me straight.
