Re: Bangkok Field Report
IMO, it's all depends on us. Normally the girl's family will said "up to you"
Again like Pii happy mentioned. Thais wedding has many similarities like the Malays. But the Malays got the current standard dowries, now is 8-10k sgd I don't think so the Thais got the standard market rate for dowries. I heard my mother's friend son married a thai Muslim from the south, no sin sot at all. Unless one marrying actress then can be more. Malay style is to see the girl's education, and job she holding. My two baht worth. |

The money after the ceremony will then return to the couple, at least that is what supposed to be. The amount can be anything which are negotiable by match maker send by the groom. The ideal of sin sot is to prove that you can take care of the girl. On top of sin sot you have to hire monk,buy some gold as present to her parent,invite maybe whole village and beyond.Something like malay wedding. However now is modern time so sin sot is been used to con some farang money or any other foreigner who are not aware or really understand what it is all about. |

As for entertainment girl (guess is not movie star or singer, if not will be much more) they will expect 200k at least to 500k or even more. Is depend on his "love" and pocket to determine what is the right amount and negotiate lor. If he can afford 500k baht easily then why not? Marriage and sin sot is not just 1 time payment, more will come from day to day.....remember my 88k baht sin sot, until now already few million baht spend on car, business, condo & house all under my wife name. Hopefully she doesn't kick me back kampong one day if she know I have gig

This is an example of the sin sot being abused, If the groom is a Thai he will give nothing except maybe pay for some food and lao kao. |

Re: Bangkok Field Report
Since talking about sin soot and I have been asking my gigs and thai girls about sin soot always as I wanted a thai wife always. Here are some of my findings from different thai type of girls. I will sum it up as follow;
This sin soot can be money or gold , usually the wiser way to do it is tell your future wife that you decide to give a certain amount as sin soot. She then will discuss and offer the value to the parents. After giving the sin soot, is up to the girls family to take everything or to give u and the girl back a certain percentage and can also give u back everything. this sinsoot is very subjective and it depends on the family and maybe before marriage you already fork out alot for the girl like buy car or house or cows. Do not let your thai wife tell you the amount for sin soot instead tell her you want to give a certain amt. my 20 bhat worth |

If one asking for tons of ฿฿฿ then I think better call off the wedding. Otherwise more problem will surface after ฿฿฿ running low. Well there's always special case where by the bride is WL but not those gold digger type. Hopefully the one pm-ed you found someone like this. 1st time 2nd time there's always sin sot involve. You must know sin sot is not compulsory to give, some got no sin sot at all. Since when the Malays invites the whole village for the wedding? Unless staying at village, otherwise only friends and relatives, but same goes for the Thais. Whole village unless the groom is farang. |

That's why, since he PM-ed Pii naemlo, then maybe he clueless about the thai sin sot thingy. What ever it is, I wish him all the best. Hope he choose the right one. |
