We have a situation here where some friends purchased 3 rai of Nor Sor 3 Gor land about 5 years ago. They now want to sell but the Land Office has advised that they will not transfer title as the land is within an area that should not have been given title deeds. The original NS3G title was issued to a General in the police force or army. The Government can reclaim the land at any time.
They have not used the land since they bought it and the Land Office further advised that anyone could grow crops on it for one year and then claim the land. Someone has been growing cabbages on it without their permission so a very bad situation.
In that situation your friends should post haste get that person growing cabbages to sign a rental contract for the land even if it is only a tiny rental sum mentioned. Should get signatures on backdated versions too. If they refuse should get them and cabbages removed immediately. If both look tricky get local headman involved and get some paperwork saying they are trespassing on your land.

We have been through this about 2 years ago. I never get a plastic bag in 7/11 and within a couple of weeks I went from being a weirdo to a hero in my local 7/11. Roll on 2 yrs and I am a weirdo again! Everybody both local and tourist gets their stuff put in a bag. I am the one with yoghurt and and milk stuffed in my pockets!

I know if there is a continuous perimeter fence and multiple dwellings (ie 2 tabien bahns) it counts as one ( I already asked).
On another dwelling I have 2 land titles and it is counted as 2. Which actually works well for me as one is business and one private (continuous perimeter). So I am inclined to say it is 2 but it is possible as the unused piece is garden of the first it is OK.
The reason I say this is : I know of a number of places where a "public waterway" ,which in some cases is nothing more than an underground pipe or small creek , has caused the supposedly one piece of land to be actually 2 chanots (as you cannot own the piece of land taken by the waterway). The best thing to do would be to ask at your local Tesabahn office that deals with the tax.

Expats might want to take note that there are some hospital discounts on that website. Have to ask them about promotion before getting bill/service. Just thought it worth mentioning.
I find the statement of just producing passport to get discount misleading; as it clearly states on some of the offers, that you need to specifically need to mention the promotion (just a passport and assumption is clearly not enough).

Maybe they are just trying to overload the system ; keep the finger on the report button.

Economic times are very tough, so not very surprising unfortunately.

So essentially Thailand owes a higher ratio of debt to itself?
Hardly a surprise when you have one of the biggest disparities of wealth on the planet.
As I see it basically the past years have seen a massive concentration of wealth and assets in very few hands (more so than in the past). Liken it to a huge water spout sucking up the water and objects within its path. It has now come to the stage where we have a "full and bloated water spout" hanging above a virtual desert. The water spout now has to work out how to survive in these unchartered conditions. The people left in the desert survive on a few drops of moisture still coming down to the desert (Chim Shop ...whatsit). That as I see it , represents Thailand at present.

where in cm was this here in chiang moi road we felt nothing
Not far from you near Tapae. But it would depend exactly where you were ie upstairs/ on ground etc. and how aware you are. Most people around us felt nothing. I was in my office with the door open and felt the building move. Two trees outside the door, there was a clicking of leaves that you don't get with the wind.
Not as strong as the one on the Burmese border a few years ago.

Felt it in CM. Building shook and leaves knocked together (very different from a breeze). It was strong enough for me to exit building as I thought it might be a precursor of something stronger.

Felt it in CM this morning. Had a feeling it wasn't a local one, they tend to be more abrupt or rolling. This one shook the building and caused leaves on the trees to "knock together".

From what I have heard, a lot of Chinese coming to Thailand for the international education. The ones I have spoke to said cheaper than China, but not sure where in China they came from.

Maybe happiness is actually not a state but rather the absence of melancholy ?

All the rumours I heard were of places with a type of show and lantern release. They seemed to think north of CM.

Interesting , so the rumours I have been hearing are turning out to be true ! Was there by any chance more than one of this type of event.

*38 (2) cessation of being an employee.
Whatever you do, always check the the Social Security Office first as new subordinate regulations are issued from time to time.
I remember an American friend being rejected and told she needed 13 months instead of the 12 months paid for on her year contract!

Don't quote me, but I heard it was 15 months you must work.
It used to be 13 months contributions. A lot of people used to get caught out as they pulled out at 12 months!!

Maybe it's incorrect, but I heard women did not have to take the oath since they are considered as adopting their husband's citizenship instead of changing their citizenship.
That was the conclusion I reached too. Will have to see if it is true.

I thought everyone had to do the oath.
So did I, I think I will just wait and see on that. But the head police guy who did everything said no. Very confusing.

Haven't taken an oath. I was told after file sent to BKK then I just wait for my name to be announced.

A lot of these sycophantic polls have the scent of a type of communism. The government seen as a type of saviour in rescuing the people from the ills of the world. History teaches us that after a number of years (unfortunately sometimes many many years) the populace often hears a penny drop. Which is that the government is both the cause and the deceptive arbitrator of their problems. Politics in action, no need to read the textbooks!

How long does it take from the MoI interview these days until getting ID card?
So far 18 months since I passed interview and paperwork sent off to BKK. There was another round of successful female applicants announced just a few weeks ago, but I wasn't on it!

Quote1,197 Thais from all regions and a range of professions.
Totally misleading, nothing to do with the "majority of Thais".
Journalist needs to go back to "basic journalism and facts course". Maybe try passing it this time around.

Can't say I miss the fire lanterns. This year has been the first in many that I haven't had to sprint down the soi with a very heavy fire extinguisher.
Don't advise a hose and water as most of the fires they start involve some kind of electrics.

Land resumption on the way

As above multiple years of occupation needed for squatters rights, but not beyond some people to get local signatures saying they have been there for decades growing cabbages!
