It looks like he may have burned the house down out of spite before hanging himself, so that his Thai in laws didn't get it. Not sure.

Don't be silly, Matthew. They only ever wanted your money. Your life meant nothing to them.

I think his point was they can't touch him now, even put him in jail, and he is well rid of them.

The family's neighbours will be slurping up this gossip, and the family will lose muchos face, it's a very effective tactical move, just a pity it involved loss of life.

It's surprising how much locals are affected by something like this, many of them are very superstitious and are shit-scared of ghosts.

From the article "with his hands cuffed behind his back." ???

The superstition could play a large part here. In China the suicide rate for women is far higher than men by about 3 to 1, and unlike other countries in China it is used by women as an act of revenge. Quite a bit of literature on this, eg:

Rebellion and revenge: the meaning of suicide of women in rural China Liu Meng First published: 4 February 2003 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf ... 2397.00239

In this article, the ethnographic data are used to explore the special meaning of the suicide act in a Chinese family and its impact on the other family members. Research has shown that suicide may have a different meaning in the Chinese context, especially for women with an inferior status within the family. Suicide is taken as an act of revenge in a moral and spiritual sense. The act of suicide is very powerful; it grants the woman so much power that she may achieve what she could not during her lifetime. The suicide event remains in the collective memory of the relatives and other people who knew the person. Its powerful meaning is related to the memory of the transgressive event of taking one’s own life as well as to the collective and personal guilt connected with the event.https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf ... 2397.00239

I don't know at what point it became clear to me we are worthless to Thai girls, but I will have nothing to do with them. This applies to all of them at any economic stratum you care to name, whether she has an MBA or an STD. Our only function is to be milked and discarded.

There were some other equally sad stories added to the thread. Read the story of ajanmarc whose GF used the family truck, which was almost paid off, as collateral for a secret 500,000 baht loan. She did the same to the motorcycle. The poor sod got no answer to his question, where is the money?

Had to quit reading the thread as the snarky, nasty replies infuriated me. But that's Thaivisa, the sinkhole of gutter expats.

Love knowing men see that Thai women, and their families, look at foreign men as fodder and fast cash. More foreign men need to be warned and so do their families who may believe this is a positive for young men. 'Save' a poor, or wealthy, Thai woman and pay with your life or life savings.

Of course the authorities will quickly write this off as a suicide. Too many suicides in Thailand with knives in the back and hands tied behind backs. Almost each one involved a relationship with a Thai and money.

Sad story, especially for his daughter.
