Subject: Mail order bride not 'delivered'


Fri, Aug 20, 2010The Star/Asia News Network


JOHOR BARU: A 50-year-old businessman's hopes of a blissful married life with his 22-year-old Vietnamese bride-to-be was shattered in just a day.
Lee Law Oh said he paid RM6,000 to a match-making agency, which then "delivered" her to him.
"However, when she arrived at my house, she told me that she did not want to be married," he told a press conference organised by Johor Baru MCA Youth chief Kua Song Tuck here yesterday.

"I sent her back to the agency the next day. But the agency REFUSED to refund my money and insisted that it was my fault the marriage did not happen.
"I really want to end my bachelor days as I don't want to die alone. I was so close to achieving happiness, but it was gone all too soon."
Lee subsequently brought the matter to the Consumer Claims Tribunal, which told the company to give him a refund.
"But there is still no action by the company," he said.
Kua said there was a growing trend for men in Johor to acquire Vietnamese brides through match-making agencies, but many were duped instead.
"As most of these men are desperate to settle down, they became easy prey for such Vietnamese women and their agencies, and were cheated of thousands of ringgit," he said.
Some Vietnamese women also used such ploys to enter Malaysia to find jobs, he added.
Kua said he had received more than 20 complaints so far this year, with lawyers and businessmen among the victims.
"I advise single men not to resort to foreign bride agencies as they might be duped in the end," he said.


TKG NOTE: Yes! confirmed you are duped! See how money faced those agency are? Evil as a blood sucking vampire! Thinking they will get you a good mate? fat hope. They are more interested into your pocket (agent fee). Ending bachelorhood this way is really not a wise choice. Mostly end up being conned. Beware, vietnam matchmaking agency!
