  1. Stop eating and drink beer only, that will solve your problem!
  2. I don't understand, vindictive self-consuming enraged etc. etc. You already left your life over there, You left a bunch of money to whoever wants to take it. Just let it go. Life goes on.
  3. I think the year is not the manufacturing year, but the year that model was introduced.
  4. The estate assumes the same legal commitments as the deceased. I think most things are covered under the 30 baht thing, but depends on what kind of surgery I think.
  5. There are different severance payment depending on length of employment, for example after 1 year, 2 years, 3 years etc....max is 10 years and 400 days severance.
  6. For the Usufruct, it is basically up to each land office to grant. The problem I think for the land office is the "fruct" part of it, meaning a grey zone where the foreigner is allowed to profit from the land, which is a paragraph 22 issue for the land office, since foreigners are not allowed to engage in activities/work of such type, they can't even get a work permit.
  7. The labor protection act do not distinguish between employers, either private entities or companies. The act is for the protection of laborers. If taxes has been paid or not, does not matter, that is a separate issue pertaining to tax evasions.
  8. I'm just stating what the law of Thailand says. The estate of the deceased is a legal entity in this context, meaning the estate has the same legal obligations as the deceased. Minimum government wages has nothing to do with it.
  9. The Thai Labor protection act is clear, the maid, having worked for the employer for more than 10 years, is entitled to a severance payment of her current salary for 400 days. I does not matter if there is a written agreement or not, if she has worked for an employer, that constitutes an agreement. In a dispute, she must of course be able to prove that she has worked for the employer. And then of course we come to the question of tax payments, which should have been done by the employer. https://www.ilo.org/dyn/natlex/docs/ELECTRONIC/49727/125954/F-1924487677/THA49727 Eng.pdf (The original act was changed in 2017 and in 2019, google it). Additionally, If the maid is over 60 years (since 2019, now officially the retirement age in Thailand) she can retire any time she wants and is entitled to the 400 days severance payment upon retirement.
  10. I recently went into and out of BKK from Prachinburi for my vaccine shot. There were one checkpoint set up by the police on the way in, but it was just one of those unattended show checkpoints with loads of tents and people sitting there basically doing nothing. On the way out of BKK however, I encountered a very active military checkpoint at Phanom Sarakham. They seemed to stop vehicles with certain registration plates, presumably red zone plates, but let all other pass.
  11. Sometimes you get lucky, a local young immigration lady might just "miss" that your previous 90 days is overdue and not fine you. obviously more work and trouble for them, filling in an additional form, issue a receipt and a stamp in your passport, the stamp which they can't find because some predecessor put it somewhere. Just give them the passport, don't say anything and hope for the best. Has worked for me several times. Works best at small local immigration offices. I once exited the country at Don Muang with a one year overdue passport and they just stamped it and let me through. Once I was overdue by a day and I argued with the immigration officer about how many days there are in the month of November and when I finally admitted to my error, he just let me off, assumingly simply because he won an argument with a farang:)
  12. Heath Ledger Maryam Mirzakhani Philip Seymour Hoffman
  13. YES! This is my favorite mouthwash, occasionally changed/mixed with Jägermeister. Store in freezer for best effect.
  14. Don't forget the emerging army of Foodpanda and Line delivery motorcycles.
