  1. Company paying your rent, because 150,000 baht per month is serious $'s in anyone's language, e.g. I built a 6 bedroom, 3 bathroom house for just over that amount when you multiply the rent x 12 months.
  2. The tenant has a period of 7 days to leave the premises before launching an eviction procedure before the judge. It is legal.
  3. I think what your saying is you were previously paying 37,500 baht per month for your share of the monthly rent, i.e. there were (4) of you, which would make it worth the while. That would be half the rent you would pay for a new one bedroom unit on Parramatta Road, Homebush in Sydney Australia. Parramatta Road for those of you not familiar with the area has 6 lanes, 3 in each direction, so its a very busy road. If the landlord is asking 350,000 baht a month now, he has heard that rents around the world have literally doubled because of the 10, if not more interest rises over the past year, and those landlords who couldn't afford to hang onto their investments, sold and most of the new owners who more than likely be tenants, therefore making rentals become scarce as the rental markets dry up, especially as is the case in Australia, with the government not charging stamp duty on purchases up to a certain amount, and then to scale, which makes it inviting, and those on the scale, can pay the stamp duty as an annual amount over xyz years.
  4. What I have learned is to steer clear of government hospitals up country and clinics with Dr's, oddly enough this Dr was the head of the kids section in the hospital and does her own clinic thing in the mornings and afternoons for a couple of hours. When I went to the private hospital they sorted it real quick, i.e. that it was a chest infection, they gave me steroids, an inhaler, and antibiotics. To be fair to the Dr at the clinic, I am pretty sure told the wife that I had the flu, as did the specialist at the hospital the next day after a chest x-ray was carried out. Cost of the private 4,000 baht including meds, was feeling great shortly thereafter taking the inhaler and antibiotics. It's privates for me from then on, I hope you had some kind of medical insurance or are a self insurer, 650,000 for 2 nights, ouch.
  5. Um, how many MILLIONS died in the 1st year please Vs all previous years.
  6. Can I ask how long you before your Passport expires, mine is in November, so just wondering how long I should wait before applying for the renewal online ? I hazard a guess if I applied next month it would be approved in say July and start from July which would be 4 months earlier than my expiry date and it's not cheap when you have to pay the overseas processing fee. Maybe apply mid September, so would come back October ?
  7. Email came back, standard run of the mil email, have to contact them, which I did and they confirmed, don't have to go in, just do it online. Well stone the crows ????
  8. I will look at it later, I just emailed them asking them to confirm that I don't need to go in and if they would provide a letter to immigration automatically when renewing my passport so that I can have stamps transferred. As for birth certificates and the like, I have the lot. It all sounds to good to be true, but will make me a happy if I don't got to go anywhere.
  9. This happened to me at a usual road block, but I also have cruise control on, and when he said you speeding, I said no, here is video of me driving and speed, oh, ok, very good, you go to tent and pay 400 baht for being in overtaking lane....LOL Bastard got me, couldn't argue with him, long of the short, I made sure I got my 400 baht off the next Thai guy when I negotiated his price down on the item I was buying, not that I usually do this, but I wasn't going to get fleeced, so revenge is bitter sweet, what goes around comes around, didn't bother me that it was someone else paying for my fine.
  10. I just read on the Embassies website that it can all be done on line, i.e. I don't need to go in, does that sound correct to you ? https://thailand.embassy.gov.au/bkok/Mailed_in_passport_applications.html
  11. The Laos border is about an hour and a half drive from my place, then a taxi on the other side to and from the embassy for 300 baht, re-entry permit 1,000 baht as opposed to driving or flying to Bangkok. Not sure of the process time in Laos, my question was, can it be done in another country, but Lopburi3 believes it may not be done. I have an Oz Passport and Will27 has provided some solid advice.
  12. The core evil in relationships, so glad non in ours, no reason for it. RIP, so sad for the kids.
  13. My passport is coming up for renewal in November and I do not wish to travel to Bangkok twice to lodge it and pick it up, if at all possible as I am an 8 hours drive away. I am thinking to renew my passport in Laos for example and then take my new passport with letter from the embassy to my immigration to transfer the stamps from the old passport to the new passport. Appreciate any advice on this, or any other options I may have.
  14. Yeh, right, watch out for that knife in the back, it will be multiples.
  15. You can't help stupid ! Police tracked the GPS signal of the victim’s AirPods to Soi Yu Suk 30 in the Mueang district of Samut Prakan province, just south of Bangkok, and followed the signal. As soon as police arrived at the Soi Yu Suk 30 they met a man riding a yellow Honda Scoopy motorbike with a Samut Prakan registration. Both the man and bike matched the CCTV images. Police questioned the man, 41 year old Thanakrit, who confessed to snatching and fleeing with the tourists’ bag at around 11pm on Wednesday. Thanakrit was arrested under suspicion of, “robbery by sudden snatching using a vehicle for convenience or to escape from arrest and causing bodily harm to the victim.” So long sucker.....
  16. Only what mum cooks for him, spoilt rotten, little shih tzu
  17. Time for the people to take to the streets again and that worries me.
  18. No what I am implying is that if your not guilty, you don't admit guilt, regardless if it's from your arm chair, but then again, you've sown you're weakness.
  19. I pray he gets the death penalty, real sooooooon !
