The wife of prominent social activist Sombath Somphone has made a desperate plea to Lao authorities, declaring he will leave the country and retire quietly with her if returned safely after being abducted in the Lao capital 10 months ago.

Ng Shui Meng, who has been married to the award-winning Sombath for 30 years, says she does not want to see any more damage done to Laos' image and credibility over the abduction which human rights groups describe as a state-sponsored forced disappearance.

Every day since Sombath disappeared has been "an eternity of waiting, wavering between hope and despair."

"All I want is only the safe return of Sombath," Ms Shui Meng, a Singaporean, told Fairfax Media.

"He is an old man who is in need of medical attention. Once he is returned I will take him out of the country for medical care and we will live out the rest of our lives in quiet retirement," she said.
