  1. YOu dont need a company structure to apply for a WP. You can do it via your wifes name. ie she will pay taxes in her personal name. Take the hotel license that the govt gives you and if you satisfy all other requirements for a WP ie salary and employing x amount of thai staff then you can legally get a WP. BEST to do it after a year of operation. I did it after several yrs.
  2. Give up the booze and get a job as soon as you get back. No excuses
  3. I replaced the RCBO and put the new one in. For the last 2 nights it started raining here 4am in the morning. The electric box tripped both mornings. I am suspcious that it might be the outside spotlights ie water impacting the wiring out there. Is this a possibility? To test this should I ask an electrician to remove all such wiring ie disable all outside spotlights and then test again?

  5. gross to think of old man like this with young lady. you have issues dude
  6. Basically, its a complete nightmare to isolate the problem... Months ago we installed a new bathroom. Actually the builder ripped off the old tiles on walls and floor. But he didnt 'waterproof' the room. I didnt know about this. So the new RCBO device will go in the box tonight. And from tonight for 1 week I will not allow anyone to use that shower. Will wait for rain and see if it trips. If no tripping then I will allow use of the shower and see if it trips. Im a bit suspcious. Its above the electric box room to the right 1 to 2m. Wondering if water is leaking on wires there
  7. Does the MCB over current protection mean that my customers cant die if something happens? Is it same as safety cut?
  8. What does that mean. Please explain in basic terms. Is our building still protected if the RCBO is absent?
  9. A spot ETF is HUGE for bitcoin and its price. Celebrate if it happens... and sell above 100k usd...
  10. They paid up for me 10 yrs ago or more. USD60k included private medivac plane.
  11. In late 2000 I put a claim in at a private hospital for usd60k and they paid it. Looks like they have changed their tune. Used to be a good insurance company....
  12. Part 2 shows the ugly kitchen design. I would rip that out and go immediately to Index living and pay for a high spec kitchen. Why go for 1980s thai style kitchen???
  13. Blackrock has power and the SEC knows this. After 10 yrs we might finally have a spot ETF for bitcoin. Its good news and about time. USD100k bitcoin price is coming folks. As for Deutsche bank all I can say is shizer. Its not financially strong and always in the press.
  14. Use an antihistemine. Same effects. non addictive.
  15. Ive come back home after being away and family is asleep. We just had a power cut and I thought I would go and look in the electric box (mains area). I am shocked to see that the RCBO module component is missing to the right of the switches. I dont have electrical knowledge but its always been there before. Either my wife or staff have removed it.... A month ago the power kept tripping. I remember the electrician saying that the component might be compromised. Maybe we should replace it. If that is not inserted in there, does it mean that we dont have proper protection ie safety cut? If I want to go and buy another one can you tell me exactly want to buy? I assume I can show photo to them? After buying it can I just insert it myself or should a sparkie do it? thanks
  16. do you know if this new requirement is only for foreigners or does the wife also have to go and show id?
  17. No offence but you do sound like a little Aussie battler. But thats ok. With regards to your last sentence you sound a little ignorant. The GSB bank in Thailand (pink bank) is the government bank. The mega rich families in Thailand hold huge money in this bank. More than the pissy 250,000 aud that you are worried about putting in an oz bank. Before you start bagging out thai banks you could learn from Thais who have a lot more money than you.
  18. Last week I had a call from Kiatakin bank saying that they wanted to me to take my passport to the local branch to allow them to scan. New rule from central bank of thailand. I had until the end of this month. If I didnt do it my account is limited to 50k transactions. Has anyone else heard of this BS? thanks
  19. i know nurses get the rough end of the deal. Long hours and low pay. I know one who works in bkk
  20. Drs and dentists are on contract after they graduate to work at the govt' hospitals for x years. Some quit and go private after the 5 yr period and some do both. Out of uni they are allocated a 'senior' dr to supervise but they basically do thousands of cases in their speciality field (dr and dentists).
  21. Doesn't sound as if they did a very good job if you are 'still on the mend' after 4 months. Private hospital told me within a few days to 1 week should be back to normal basically with laproscopic hernia repair with mesh which is the 'gold standard'.... In the end did you have open surgery no mesh? I think Id rather pay a higher price than have 4 months of discomfort
  22. Im interested in your comment. Actually Ive had the hernia for several weeks now and no issues. I wonder if I can just leave it for a while similar to the way I deal with other health issues.
