  1. And how do you think a thai bank is going to lend a company the money? Is the company in your wife or gf name?
  2. I had this recently. He said it was bacteria infection. 1000mg of augumentin twice a day and it went away. Actually I had 2 or 3
  3. I go to Bkk once a month and noticed several times when walking past the BTS stations/ streets around Nana area that there are many African guys standing there staring at people walking past. One time I noticed a few of them arguing really loud at each other and the thai seller close by was not impressed at all. Non racial tone here. Just interested in why they are there everynight. Anyone know?
  4. Piddly money to worry about. Just use the voucher and stop being an entitled westerner
  5. I had a quotation for building insurance from a broker. I was wondering that sort of margins they add on top? If I were to go direct to the company maybe I would save a lot of money if I keep renewing every year. Thoughts? In the interests of full disclosure please advise if you are a broker when replying thanks
  6. May I ask. you to confirm that if Im married to thai and applying for Citizenship then I dont have to sing at all?? Only conversational thai? What about reading or writing?
  7. We purchased land that doesn't have a house on it at the moment. We will probably build a house next year and obtain planning permission via the brown envelope method This year are we able to erect a concrete fence without having to ask permission from anyone? What is the legal fence height or does this vary from province to province? The concrete fence idea seems ok but a bit ugly. Good for privacy but thats about it. Having driven all over our province I noticed some people have fences where one can see right inside the yard and others have 100% privacy. What about you? What about a carport? Do I need to get permission for that if I do it this year?
  8. what brand is your purifier. where do I buy one from? how often do you have to change the filters or only cleaning? thanks
  9. What country are you talking about here especially in regard to the last sentence. Sounds like America or another nanny state. FYI on thailand.... people burn <deleted> whenver they want and whereever they want. In fact I live in the cbd of a small city. Some idiot near us burns plastic at 2am sometimes. I had to laugh at your narrative 'all permit holders'. I dont think the local farmers would understand what the hell you are talking about...
  10. duh.... and then I said ''2nd message stating 'I apologise very much for not requesting permission from <my name) in advance''' Please read things before typing next time
  11. So true, the neutral face is amazing here. We had an issue with a neighbour. My wife didnt want drama or confrontation. So different to the west
  12. Thais are hopeless when it comes to dogs. A guy at my childs singing class tells me he has 2 dogs. I asked him if he walks them. Oh no, they have a small yard A cafe near us has animals inside for kids to see. They have a small room with 8 dogs and no aircon. I asked the owner does he walk them. Oh yes he says. I think not
  13. Do you mind if I ask how far down do the foundations have to go? Whats the legal height limit or does that depend on the province? Weep holes?... Are they just holes in the concrete to allow the water to move out? Where are the holes located exactly? thanks
  14. Maybe your comprehension skills are lacking. Please read the original post.... or amend the statement to 'please provide us with his name and address....'
  15. no you dont understand. Its not his land. He visited our land and burnt our green waste without asking us for approval
  16. ''Pyromania is a type of impulse control disorder that is characterized by being unable to resist starting fires. People with pyromania know that setting fires is harmful. But setting fires is the only way they can relieve their built-up tension, anxiety, or arousal'' Over several years I walk my dog on government land that is a huge area and has many trees. People sometimes illegally dump their green waste and other <deleted> and I noticed a guy always going and burning it off. He also sometimes clears vegetation and burns it all up as well. I slowly got to know this guy and thought he is a friendly chap. We added LINE accounts and chat sometimes. He sometimes sends me photos similar to the one below. He said its his 'hobby'. Recently there was land for sale and he was the first to tell me about it. Many buyers were interested and he knew the owners. We ended up buying it and I put it down to this guy helping us a lot. The sellers hired a tractor and cleared all the land resulting in 3 piles of dry green waste on our new land. My wife did tell him a month ago that we wanted him to teach me how to burn that off safely. This morning I woke up and he sent me 2 messages. First one asking my permission to burn the 3 piles stating that the conditions 'were perfect' 2nd message stating 'I apologise very much for not requesting permission from <my name) in advance' He sent me several photos of the fire. I was a bit <deleted> to be honest. I wanted to be there.... I told him he is not allowed in the future to do anything on the land without having my approval' I assume it must have been frustrating for him to see the 3 piles of unburnt green waste for so long. Akin to a porn addict who has a laptop with no VPN/ wifi connection. Im planning on building a house on that land and think I dont want to be on the wrong side of a pyromaniac. Once again today I have to take a deep breath and say my daily mantra 'I must lower my expectations', 'I must lower my expectations', 'I must lower my expectations'
  17. Your last sentence is correct. Its hard to know which way to go actually. Both options (usufruct and registered lease) mean that the wife can sell the land although both options still give me legal rights. Many posters above talk about the usufruct being nullified upon divorce. I dont know what the case is with registered leases in this regard. If we were to move the chanote to my daughters name on the chanote, then I think PEA electric account cannot be opened. Water account can. I should ask PEA if its possible to put in mothers name. Its all a bit confusing
  18. some of the comments on this website might not be on par with some of your comments: https://www.siam-legal.com/realestate/Leases.php
  19. BUT THEN.... I would never have had a child, never have made big money with our business, never have obtained a work permit, never have got thai citizenship. Need I go on
  20. it was in a uk paper recently. A 20 yr old girl in hospital after 2 yrs of vaping. Severe lung damage this health minister is a f77l
  21. on the basis of this, do you think I would be better off taking a 30 yr lease registered at the land office and paid taxes on this lease for the 30 yrs as evidence to this fact?
