Thailand Debates Costly Move to Relocate Capital from Bangkok
LukKrueng replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Probably the same person who owns the land in Phatumthani, the location to which he tried to move the capital to 20 years ago... -
What brand of car? I have Ford assist and very happy with them. They do anything from changing a flat tire, a few liters of fuel if you ran out all the way to towing the car to the nearest Ford dealer's garage free of charge. There might be a limit to the miner if times they'll supply the free fuel, but no limits on actual breakdowns. Costs about 2500 Baht \year

Benefits to closing a bank account?
LukKrueng replied to bodo's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
You can do pretty much everything with the banks app, including cardless withdraws and it's free of charge. If you want them account closed you can simply empty it and after a while then bank will close it (might take dinner time though but I can't see any problems with leaving it opened) -
As @DrJack54 said immigration have nothing to do with the license, only issuing a proof of resistance. Thai citizens and foreigners holding a PR use a copy of the blue house book. There are many certified driving schools that offer lessons and both written exams and driving tests as part of the driving course. You can do bike\car and in some such schools even trucks and semi trailers. Cost around 4-6k BAHT. Once you complete the course and exams they issue a letter with which you go to the DLT to get the license.

Condo blue book
LukKrueng replied to LOG54's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
1. The blue book has nothing to do with ownership of the property. It is simply a registration of who lives in the house\condo. 2. Condo units are not divided to Thai\foreign quota. Any one can buy a unit from anyone - Thai from Thai, foreigner from Thai, foreigner from foreigner, Thai from foreigner. When a foreigner wants to buy ANY unit, the condo management has to issue a letter stating that at that point in time foreign ownership had not reached 49%. 3. A blue book must be issued to the property in order to get residential electricity. Therefore the OP's unit must have been issued with one when the building was completed. 4. There's no need to issue a new blue book when buying\selling property, and usually no new book is issued, and definitely not by the land office as they have nothing to do with it. They don't know nor care who resides in the property. As with any official document that was lost - one would have to report the loss to the police, then go to the tesaban\ampoe and get a new one. I bought a few units in the past. I got the blue book for done of the units but not all. Didn't bather me as I didn't have to register anyone living there. I recently sold a unit without a blue book, to a Thai person, and I told the buyer I don't have the blue book. Not an issue. As the buyer's main radiance is elsewhere they will probably keep their house registration (official address) wherever it was before, and if they still want a blue book all they'll have to do is report to the police the loss of the book and get a new one from the ket. -
Combined car+motorcycle Thai driver's license not possible?
LukKrueng replied to farrol's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Ok, we know all branches of any official offices are not the same. But how is this related to having bike and car licenses together on the same card? -

1. I don't have an agenda not stakes in the game. 2. Going to immigration has nothing to do with getting a license. Getting a certificate of resistance at immigration is only needed by those who don't have other ways of proving where they reside such as blue or yellow housebook (yes, I know blue is only for Thai citizens and holders of PR). This certificate of resistance, much like the blue\yellow book is needed for many other things and is not directly connected to the license. 3. The OP was about having both bike and car on the same plastic card, and again, it makes no difference how you proved you place of resistance to the LTD, it makes no difference if one is a Thai citizen, holder of Thai PR, holder of any other type of visa\permit to stay - no one gets both types of licenses on the same plastic card. Maybe it was possible over 30 years ago when licensed were issued for life as someone mentioned in another reply, but it's not possible any longer. -
Vietnamese Man Arrested for Cannabis Cultivation in Bangkok
LukKrueng replied to Georgealbert's topic in Bangkok News
All the more reason to bust those who fail to obtain the right permits -
1. OP wrote that both his and his wife's name are on the chanot. No company mentioned. 2. OP was asking about the possibility of his in-laws taking over his condo. None of these issues has anything to do with quota. And condo units are not marked under any quota. When you buy a unit from either Thai or foreigner you must get a letter from the condo management verifying that at the time of issuing the letter, the % of foreign ownership is under 49. That figure can change everything a unit changes hands between a Thai and non Thai in both directions.

If both of you are listed as equal owners that means half the condo is yours and the other half hers. If she passes away without a will, her half goes to neutral heirs: 50% of her half goes to you as the husband (so you already have 75% ownership of the condo and basically everything else you bought after you got married). The other 50% of her share is divided between her children and other surviving members of her family ie parents and siblings, so in the worst case scenario they can claim that part but they have no claim over your 75% of the property. It might be better to have a will, but they might also challenge the will at court. Nothing to do with Thai\foreign quota

Combined car+motorcycle Thai driver's license not possible?
LukKrueng replied to farrol's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Maybe because the initial 1 is for 2 years and the next 1 for 5? Should ask AN members with short term visas how much they pay for a renewal for only 2 years at a time. -

LukKrueng replied to farrol's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
So when you apply for a passport do you go to the DMV? Immigration has nothing to do with driver's license. You might be confusing the proof of residence which you got at immigration with the Thai license which you should get at the DLT (similar to the US DMV). You can use 1 original certificate of resistance plus 1 certified copy (you certify it by signing) and the same for health certificate, but the actual licences are not on the same card and never have been. -
JFK assassination papers declassified !
LukKrueng replied to dinsdale's topic in Off the beaten track
I'm waiting for the release of the COVID era docs -
Wtf does that mean? When I was born no doctor\nurse assigned me male. When my children were born no doctor\nurse\administrator assigned them male\female. Does that mean we are not legally males\female? Who do I have to see to get assigned? Can those in charge of assignments assign me as 25 years old?

My Favorite THC Delivery Method in 2025. What's Yours?
LukKrueng replied to HugoFastor's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
From the same flower? I thought the body high comes from higher % Indika while head high from sativa. I mostly vape dry herb, changing the strain of weed between higher\lower % of Indika every few days. I started vaping at 190c but now usually 200c for better hit but I'm paying for it with coughing... I usually do 2 sessions per filling and a total of 3-4 sessions per evening. I'll have a look at hooking the vaporiser to a bong and will also try to reduce temperature and do more frequent sessions... I tried oil in the past but didn't like the long time waiting for the high and the fact that adjusting if the high is not good enough is not possible unless you vape\smoke for the extra high. -
Belgian man scammed out of 8 million baht by female Thai soldier
LukKrueng replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Sold a unit few months ago. 3 transactions were made - 2 as deposit, 1 upon agreeing on the price, 1 about a month later, and the 3rd on the day of the transfer. All transactions made from Bank to bank. Never saw cash or draft -
I have a sharp fridge for over 20 years. Been moved 2 or 3 times since I bought it and still going strong. Seems like you bought a lemon.

The best way to be sure is to take a copy of the chanot to the local land office. This is basically the only way to be sure it's a freehold and that ownership can be transferred. Usually when a plot is upgraded from N.S.3 (or from other lesser titles) to chanot the owner cannot sell for a period ranging from 5 to 10 years (called red chanote). It is also noted on the original chanot. Next thing - be present personally at the land office for the process of the change of ownership. The officer will ask the seller if he received the agreed amount in full and only then they'll add your name (or company name) to the chanot.
