If they sign a new contract on a yearly basis for 6 years, the company would still have to pay severance for 6 years when the last contract isn't renewed. Labor office doesn't fall for this trick.

Of course it is a lot quieter than in 2019, there were 40 million arrivals then.

Still go to the Labor office, they can help.

For managers in Thailand it is good to be a bit older.

Do NOT leave, that is what they are trying to force on her to avoid paying severance pay. Don't accept the pay cut and go to the labor office, they will help for free. No need to hire a lawyer. Get the severance pay and then find a new job.

A good tenant wouldn't go to a forum to ask if it is ok to trash the place. "it is just a lease", easy for you to say as you don't run it. Empty for 3 years, so the owner had problems during Covid too.

He starts the nonsense by not completing his contract. What are you on about?

Never had a problem too.

No, he is the one ripping off. He signs a long lease and get discount on the rent. Then for whatever reason he wants shorten the lease and still enjoy the discounted rent.

You should involve the police to get your deposit back IF that is still needed as you are not honoring the contract you signed. This cheating on the signed contract causes damages to the rental company. You are out of your mind to even think of damaging other people's property willfully.

Most people just need to work.

See if you can sell or rent out the restaurant. If it needs 800K within a year it will need more money soon.

Nobody steals from me unpunished and there is nothing to grass. We own the land, so no rent to pay and family working for us who live for free. My cost will always be lower than the competition.

Nonsense, if you know how to run a business, you can make good money. The big problem is many businesses are opened by foreigners who never ran a business before in their lifetime and know hardly anything about the country, the laws and the language. On top of that they do this together with a girl they found in a bar that has max 3 years of education.

Yes, times are changing. They were allowed to ask for 2 months deposit but not anymore unless they own less than 5 condo's.

You moaning about my clarification is pointless.

Company lawyer takes care of 90 day report, she has the address but no proof. Rental contract on first address was in my name, current one is in my wife's name.

Not true. While living on 2 different addresses in Bangkok over the years, I never showed proof of my address. Got my non Imm B for working and following extensions without any problem at the BOI OneStop center. Never done a TM30.

Got a house with garden in BKK for 25K a month + 6K for electricity. One of the 6 rooms is used as kitchen.

Try meeting "ladies" outside massage parlors / girly bars / Go Go's. You get a different view.

They can use hospitals in different provinces, just need a referral. You haven't got a clue.
