If there was an agreement made with Thailand there would be no need to live in Australia for two years to get your pension payment .

You obviously do not understand my point . Good day sir

A good start would be a international social security agreement between the two countries .

What happens to people that have paid into the pension scheme through taxation that can not afford to return to Australia ? There are huge holes in there draconian rules to get what you have paid for . A shame for a country that has relied on immigration for growth the past 80 years or more .

Need to get onto the Australian bushwhacker law makers somehow .

The 35 years is to qualify for the full pension . There may well be a minimum of years to qualify for any pension at all . If you have lived out of Australia then you must live there for two years to qualify for the pension for portability . I am not sure if you would receive a pension when you arrive back . There draconian rules apply to Australian and non Australian citizens . Australia has a number of countries they have agreements with that can change matters . Thailand is not one of them and that includes the UK . I have no desire to live in Australia to receive the pension what I paid for . They have changed the rules and are robbing thousands of people . Something needs to be done to make the Australian government to pay up .

I noticed that when living in Norway that if a house went up in flames then the local gossip was that it must of been a insurance job . People have the same attitude to PTSD claims .

Thank you for the reply . I have a good understanding of self leveling cement My question was if anyone has used the product in the photo which they call semi self leveling . The price for a 50 kg bag is 158 baht compared to most 25 kg bags of self leveling cement costing around 600 baht . I bought 20 bags and I will soon make a start on the leveling up a bad concrete job . If the product is working well I will of saved a lot of money .

Buy a Toyota or Honda in the future. Forget German technology

Here is the agreement hosts agree to with Airbnb.

20 minutes from Chiang Mai. The house has 5 short term rentals . All utilities are paid from the rental income . Slowly building a 6th unit for rent. Rental income is a good hedge against a stronger baht.

Some knowledge is an understatement .

Correct

I live for far less than 600,000 baht . Well under 200,000 baht . I have 600,000 baht in pension income plus i have income from rent . The property is unincumbered . Rental income covers all electricity and any improvements .

It does take time to get an answer from Genecards regarding the alleged German .

I use Lavada very often as it saves me explaining to a shop what i want to buy . My most recent purchase and the most expensive buy was a Grundfos pressure pump CMB 46PT24. The local stores were wanting 23900 baht for the pump . Ordering on Lazada the price was 18900 baht with the freight . Pump works very well .

The host is annoying the guest .Airbnb will remind the host of his or her obligation as being a Airbnb host.

Airbnb avoid bad publicity . This post is bad publicity for people considering using Airbnb when in Thailand. I have been hosting now for 3 years and always obtain a TM30 for foreign guests

Inform Airbnb that the host is refusing to comply with the local regulations as that is there obligation to follow .

Hi Scott , there is plenty of land in Canada too and they have put a stop to foreign buyers . The reason why Canada has restricted foreign ownership is because of there own citizens are being forced out of the property market .

I think they have good reason to be concerned when you look around the world where foreigners freely buy property . Only guarantee is that housing will become even more unobtainable for Thai citizens if land purchase becomes easier for foreigners to buy .

Many countries demand by law that certain breeds of dog wear a muzzle . No muzzle used then the dog can be impounded . The long lead used by the dog owner is not a wise choice.

Has anyone had experience using TPI semi self leveling M410 cement ? TPI company claim to be the second largest cement producer in Thailand . The product I ask about is cheap compared to self leveling cement that is normally sold .

Did you not see the quality of the room when you signed the agreement ? Just stay out your 6 months and honor your agreement like a gentleman .
