Just for context I should point out this has directly impacted me and my Fiancee, who is currently int he process of getting a marriage visa to be with me here. Now, scared for her safety I am forced to either break off the engagement (not going to happen) or flee the country as a refugee to be with her in Thailand where it will be safe for both of us.
So this isnt just some hypothetical, I have already been the victim of this very issue.
