There was a unique social trend in the country of Southeast Asia recently drew its global attention. The nation is famous for its beauty and scenic tourism, and it is now in the spotlight to present “wives on the rent”.
Thailand, a picturesque country in Southeast Asia, is internationally famous for its amazing beaches and a vibrant nightlife, attracting millions of tourists every year. However, recently, the nation’s book has brought focus for a different reason, as it highlights the direction of “renting wife” and a large -scale discussion starts.
This trend includes women who live with tourists for a certain period as rented wives. If the tourist developed strong admiration for a woman, there is an option to marry her.
This trend is especially famous in Pattaya, Thailand. It is also known as “the wife to rent” or “black pearl”. In this arrangement, a woman lives as a wife temporarily for money. It performs duties such as cooking, exit, and staying with men. This relationship is based on a contract and is not considered a legal marriage. Over time, it has evolved into work, as many women share a good mind.
The full story is detailed in the book “Thai Taboo – The Rise of Finish Rental in Modern Society” by LAVERT A Emmanuel. The book explains that women from poor families choose this work to support themselves and their families. These women often work in bars or night clubs, where foreign tourists meet as clients.
The fees for the rented wife depend on various factors, such as the age of a woman, beauty, education, and the duration of the contract. Some women remain with the man for a few days, while others may remain for several months.
According to reports, the rent can range between $ 1,600 (about 1.3 ru rupes) to $ 1,16,000 (about 96 ru rupes). This is a special agreement, as there are no laws that govern this practice in Thailand.
This trend grows rapidly due to the change of lifestyle in Thailand, which increased the feeling of loneliness. Many people now prefer temporary relationships over permanent relationships. The open position towards relations in Thai society also contributes to this direction. This practice is inspired by similar services in Japan and Korea, where a “friendly rental” is already popular. Thailand adopted and integrated into the tourism industry.
The Thai government acknowledges that this trend is expanding quickly. Consequently, the government is considering implementing a law to regulate it, ensuring the safety and rights of the women concerned.
