Most of these comments about the owner's responsibility are incorrect. The exhaust air system and the drainage is totally the responsibility of the owner. If installed correctly in the first place it should never cause problems. If the smell is caused through leaking pipes from above, the owner's responsibility. It is possible something has died in the ceiling. It is still the owner's responsibility to investigate. The resident of the condo is not assumed to be a plumber. Of course if you have interfered with or modified any of the exhaust or drainage then the onus falls on you.

May not have an 'owner' as such, maybe a Juristic Person and therefor all the occupiers have equal responsibility. Suggest builder first to investigate and then decide on action.

The comment about a 'mouse' is so true. Some years ago I had a very nasty smell coming from ceiling, eventually traced to a dead rat in the void. Took some time to get rid of smell.

There are exit checks when you leave the UK, the Airline checks your passport when booking in for a flight and that information is passed along.

A better question would be how do we defend ourselves from a zombie outbreak? Or an alien invasion? Both of these are more likely than ww3 breaking out.

Agreed, WWlll will be total and nothing left.

Sounds like you already have a possible problem and are trying to get around this system. Sort out before you come, even if  you won an appeal your life at immigration in the future would be very difficult, they do not forget or forgive wrongdoers easily.

This is a little confusing. Yesterday we were told there had been 300,000 drunk drivers caught. They have seized 6,500 Vehicles in relation to drink driving offences.

What about the other 293,500? Why weren't they taken too? Were those people allowed to just pay a fine and drive off?

Yep, Know one person who was fined quite a lot for being over the 'limit' then allowed to continue on the journey driving the same car. Makes real sense???

This really has got to be the most ill-informed comment I have ever read on this forum. Bar none!

Totally agree with you, it is difficult to find words that can be used on the forum to describe such 'rubbish' , gay or not there is no need for this kind of comment. Should be banned from posting any further items.

That is why you cannot park, LPG vehicles. In a multi storey car park.!

And you think petrol cannot explode? all a lot of rubbish. It would be nice to know more about the explosion, seems only a single one which is strange as most trucks have at least eight cylinders and you would expect a BLEVE to occur, unusual not to.

not the farlang..... 

teachers with genuine Ed backgrounds create "staff issues" and usually all but instantly get run out... as often as not in tears.... for "sneaking smokes on campus" or whatever....  that is, even if they ever can be found in Thailand....
 

so..... the very best.... and almost just as cheap sources of proxy staff.... so civil service can have lighter schedules.. sometimes entire days off.... for the entire school year.... which is a very big thing.... do not discount this at all... not at all....
 

might be harder to find and get processed for a "teachers license"..... to show skeptical or complaining parents (skeptical or complaining for "some" reason)....
 

as well as what makes collecting Tea Money for the proxy staff... Thai and farlang.... easier to convince parents of... "native English speakers"....

and the farlang group doesn't ever need civil service status.....
just some visa renewals and other paperwork.







 

Is this a new language or what?

These type of fire extinguishers were around long before he 'invented'  one. He will have difficulty in proving his case, maybe others might sue him for the same reason.

If the license plate is black on white, then it's classed as a passenger vehicle, and with seat belts it should be allright to sit in the back. 

If the plate is green on white, then it's classed as a two door pick up and no passengers are allowed in the back. That's also why these cars are much cheaper than double cab or sedans and SUVs, because they have a much lower tax on it. 

Think you are rather confused re licence plates Black on White is a private vehicle and green is a commercial registered vehicle, nothing to do with doors etc. 

I originally brought out, from UK that is, a small container and although most of the items could have been purchase here in Thailand at a cheaper price the quality here is seriously lacking. The especially applies to locally manufacture electrical goods, so if you want quality bring out the items otherwise except what you can buy here may not last as it would in the USA.

As there is no obvious signs of fire it is possible that the refrigerant cylinder was of a poor quality, maybe never hydraulically retested, and exploded.

This would be very unusual but is possible and has happened before. As there is no sign of any fire damage the likelihood of it being caused by a leakage of LPG from a cylinder is very unlikely. Mind you one has to wonder if the fitters were trying to use LPG somehow instead of refrigerant.

So people riding in Song Thaews will also need to buckle up? That will be the day. Then what about Tuk Tuks?

Just looked and I see no change. Still necessary to process everything through VFS.

Well it is there, which is probably why we have company in Chiang Mai advertising and offering to renew your passport for you without you needing to leave Chang Mai.

What I want to know is why has the agent got the old passport?

Agreed. There is no reason for the agent to have the passport,even the embassy does not require it, also you can now renew your UK passport online, you do not need to go to Bangkok to do it.

Another fake news article. The claim by the US pre dates the Trums presidency. Why then does the writer try to involve Trump? He never asked them to repay the loan, government/civil servants did. 

He doesn't, the name Trump not mentioned.

Try living in Chiang Mai where the local Songthaews and Tuk Tuk's  have be ripping people off for years, there being no public bus service as such. Keep going Uber don't let them beat you down.

When you target people with little education this is what happens. I seem to remember some 50 years ago in the UK people were falling for similar scams. 

Limits vary per bank, you were lucky to get that much. My 'local' bank is 20,000 Baht per day

Technically a foreigner cannot get finance unless he has a work permit, although this is often ignored. I have had the same experience with a Honda dealer. Problem is that all dealers are franchises and each has different guidelines, non of them are actually the Honda Car Co.

Depending upon the foreign countries agreement with Thailand you can opt to pay tax in either country.
