Her family raised 140,000 baht to fund the lengthy and costly autopsy in Phnom Penh and the repatriation of her remains, a process that took about two weeks.
An official highlighted the significant financial and logistical challenges families face when repatriating deceased Thai workers from Cambodia, due to high costs and complex procedures.
