Dear Mr. Voo,
By way of introduction, I run the Bring Sean Home Foundation, a non-profit established to assist victims of international child abduction.
Let me just say in response to your email that part of the problem with how these cases are treated by law enforcement is that they are NOT "custody disputes," as you describe Mr. Ko's case. International parental child abduction is a crime and should be treated as such. The fact that the abductor happens to be a parent does not diminish the seriousness of the crime. The custody issues that arise from these abduction cases are meant to be dealt with in the country where the child habitually resided prior to the abduction -- in this case the United States.
Regards,
Mark DeAngelis
Co-Founder, Bring Sean Home Foundation

Dear Sir
I refer to your emails dated 11 October 2010 and 25 October 2010.
2. Your case and those cases which you had mentioned in your latest email, including the case relating to the Romanian Dr Ionescu, are different.
3. The case relating to your ex-wife and yourself pertains to a custody dispute concerning her two children. We note that the Singapore High Court has since made an order for Ms Wang Yu Xin Mei to return to the U.S. to resolve the matter. You should therefore allow the court processes to run its course.
