Thread: Thailand to Strip 53 Year-Old Chinese Woman of Thai Citizenship

The Royal Thai Police (RTP) has petitioned Thailand’s Interior Ministry to strip Thai citizenship of a Chinese woman accused of fraud, human trafficking, surrogacy, and document forgery.


Ms. Navaporn Phakiatsakul, 53, was detained on April 8 in a building on Silom Road in Bang Rak district during a crackdown on four locations in Bangkok, one of which was her house in Sathon Soi 10 in Yannawa district of Bangkok.


Ms. Navaporn would provide false information to authorities in order to assist her compatriots in obtaining non-citizen identification cards, or pink cards, by stating they were relatives who had moved to her house, said Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn, deputy national police chief, on Saturday.

According to an investigation, Ms. Navaporn got Thai citizenship after marrying a Thai man between 1988 and 1989. She divorced her husband in 1991 and became a citizen in 1992.


“Afterwards, she became a surrogate mother for Chinese nationals, resulting in all of her children legitimately having Thai nationality, with the right to own assets and land worth billions of baht in the kingdom,” Pol Gen Surachate explained.


Ms Navaporn would also find additional women for surrogacy, who would subsequently give birth in a foreign country with the help of Thai doctors. According to the Bang Rak District Office, 26 ladies in the building claimed to be Ms Navaporn’s relatives.

However, Pol Gen Surachate told the Bangkok Post that police fear more surrogate moms are present while they investigate a seized thumb drive. “Ms Navaporn also forged visas for other surrogate mothers.” “Despite clear evidence against her, she continues to deny the charges,” he stated.


According to Pol Gen Surachate, police will work with the Public Health Ministry to review the list of clinicians linked with these instances.


Police also charged her with forging and using fake official documents, lying to authorities, and putting fraudulent visa stamps on international travel documents. “The woman will face punishment in Thailand first before she and all her children are deported,” said Pol Gen Surachate.


He has discussed with the permanent secretary of the interior withdrawing Ms Navaporn’s Thai citizenship, however she will find it impossible to carry out such commercial operations if she is deported.

Happens here as well, not to that extent though. Get married to a citizen (for payment or simply screw them), apply for residence, get divorced days after and then sponsor rellos to come in.
