  1. A tenant is required to inform the landlord of any repairs required that is causing damage to the property .
  2. I have experianced Thai people refuse a tip and seem offended by my gesture
  3. Handy man is a derogitry term for a tradesman which shows no respect for the knowledge of the man the op was wishing to hire . I ordered 10 sliding doors recently and if i wanted the the company to visit the house and measure the required size a payment of 1500 baht deposit was required . I decided to measure the doors my self .
  4. If you have grand children they will not see it happen either .
  5. The financial woes of China is the main reason for the weak baht verses the US dollar .
  6. When in Rome do as the Romans do .
  7. The story reminds me of a train accident in Selby England caused by a land rover running onto the track causing 10 deaths and many millions of pounds in damage . The landrover owners insurance had to payout millions .
  8. At least the Spirit of Ecstacy remained intact .
  9. But ask her to stop smoking while in bed
  10. Suzuki 50 was my first motorcycle given to me by my grandfather . First car was a fiat 600
  11. 100 percent are worth talking too . Question is how long and how often . Most corcasians I meet are more than okay. Some I wish to keep away from . But is that not the case any where ?
  12. Nimmon is expensive and hard to see why . Just recently saw a 2 bedroom condo that the owners were asking 50000 baht a month for in Nimmon . Considering a return of 5 percent on the value of the property the rent is way over the top .
  13. Thailand is still recovering from COVID , nothing will change for a year or two.
  14. Sheer speculation on your part. Use your energy in something worth while .
  15. That should be the policy for other countries too . The internet has created a monster regarding reviews which is not helpful . Impossible to please all people and if i see there are 100 percent positive reviews I become suspicious .
  16. Nothing published , just my own experiance as a guest house in C
  17. I think you are correct in saying the tourism in Thailand is depressed. End of 2022 was good as the beginning of 2023 was . Since April 2023 business is down
  18. As the lawyer said , if you are 60 years or more 30 years is most probably adequate and it is renewable . Long as you are not too concerned who the property will be left to on your death .
  19. I love turning the power supply off to the whole house before working on any wiring and then I will check if the power is off on all circuits especially in a house that you are not familiar with .
  20. I have been seperating houshold rubbish for the 8 years i have been here and the locals take the seperated items away when i place it outside the house . I do not see any other neighbours doing the same . I also do not put food waste in the bins . Food waste is a major problem that should be tackled by the authorities that has a value if handled correctly .
  21. There is a percentage of Thai self employed fit your criteria but in reality there are millions that are not . Thank you for your reply
  22. Precisely what I am saying 50 percent of the working population is avoiding tax. Much more of a problem than the 1 percent
  23. The shares were owned by his father and pita inherited them when his father died.
  24. You are right what you say yet dont forget if you use the law you will be blacklisted and find trouble getting employment . That happens in the west too .
  25. fish and chips , bangers and mash , toad in the hole , shepherds pie , list is long . I dont think the man knows what british food is .
