If you have the opportunity to earth all outlets then great idea. But keep in mind you can have very few appliances that are earthed nowadays. I literally have 3 earthed appliances in my whole house, washing machine, microwave and storage hot water system. Hot water system is on its own circuit, and all other appliances are in one room, the kitchen.

Hard drives, 99% of hardrives in the US come from Thailand.

I think you will find 99% of all hardrives ever sold in the US come from Thailand.

Thailand isn't being hit with any tariffs or taxes, US consumers are being hit with tariff/taxes on goods from Thailand, imported into the US. How many times does this need to be explained to the maga cult members ?

Not martial law, but he will destroy the economy, not stop any wars, ruin exports, the dollar etc. All so he can invoke emergency powers, unlimited terms, musk can be president etc

So you know of an instance where a foreigner now owns 100% of a Thai company ? The 51% Thai owners just signed a document and the DBD just allowed the foreigner to own 100% of the company, no questions asked.

You are wrong, there are no POA agreements or documents that can be signed that allow the 51% of a Thai company to be owned by a foreigner. The DBD simply will not put the foreigners name on the ownership of the company. You cant have a "right to transfer" something that's not allowed to be transferred. What would happen when the company gets sold.

They cant give it back, A company owns the property and the company documents will always show that Thais own 51%.of the company, that cannot be transferred to a foreigner under any circumstances. It has never been a classic trick or common practice, it has never happened.

There is no requirement to show paid property taxes to the land office.

Wait until you transfer to Thailand, and are on a long stay visa, then you can open an account then you can buy a condo. Otherwise, there are plenty of agents in places like Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket etc. that can open an account for you on a tourist visa, if you really want to buy before you have secured long stay immigration status.

OP, name in blue book (registered occupants) is nothing to do with ownership. Name on the chanote (title deeds) is ownership. Who is paying the mortgage ? You don't mention how much the mortgage repayments are. So long as the mortgage is being paid (i presume it is otherwise the bank would have repossessed), I don't see what the problem is.

How can you make theses statements ? Have you seen a video that others have not ? I have never known Thailand to have any gangs or gang related activity

where is the video ?

From a quick google search. Key points about getting a hotel license in Thailand: Application process: You will need to first obtain a building permit from the local District Office before applying for the hotel license. Government agency: The responsible government agency is the Department of Provincial Administration. You could probably look at it the same as a car license, The department of land transport issues a car license, the police enforce any violations to do with a car license.

There are raids every couple of years, usually in response to news stories like this one. In the past its the police who turn up, accompanied by people from the local Gov offices
