It wouldn't need to, as it is perfectly legal for him to own or co-own the house in question. 🙂 -

Phuket Airport: Swedish-Russian man nabbed for extortion

Is he being offered a job in that photo? -
The same as any other regional cuisine. Healthy if good ingredients are used, unhealthy if not. Don't buy $1 street food in any country in the world if you want to eat healthily.

My neighbor's son just went back to school to start Prathom 6, his mother came over and asked if I could help him by going through some O Net exams papers some weekends because he has O Net exams at some point towards the end of the school year. Apparently they they have O Net after school classes for an hour every day, but that could be a translation error. I have never heard of O Net exams before. What are they? What subjects are they tested in? When is it? What do the results mean or go towards? (their high school entrance for example) I thought they did P6 exams at the end of P6 that sees them be accepted into high school, do they still do these too? Thanks.

How to pay cashless at 7-11?

Going through registering with the Truemoney App as a non employed foreigner wasn't worth it the last time I looked. -
How to pay cashless at 7-11?
JeffersLos replied to MichaelJackson's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Quite a lot of people nowadays. ATMs are disappearing, we have none near us, not even at the 7-11 or gas station. We scan for everything everywhere..... except for at the 7. The only place we use cash is the 7. We take out 900thb whenever near a (rare) ATM, but if that's gone and we haven't been then it's a 6km round trip to the ATM. We live around 5km outside of a major city. -
Noisy Neighbors?
JeffersLos replied to OneMoreFarang's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
A minor issue when I moved in that I solved perfectly. I moved into an area that the people living there had lived in for generations. My house and land is the biggest and best built. The house next door has 5 people spanning 3 generations living in 2 or 3 rooms. They have work equipment etc at the side of their house, so had gotten used to coming into my driveway walking along and then turning into the back area of their house, instead of squeezing past their equipment. When I moved in the grandmother asked politely if she can, which I said yes, no problem. Then her big lump of an adult daughter started barging onto my land everyday in the most disrespectful ways possible, never asked, never said hello, started pushing my stuff out of her way on my land, bringing out dirty clothes etc from the back and shaking the dust etc out of them on my driveway before walking back to theirs. Obviously this was to stop. I could have put up a fence, built a wall and roofed off the whole section. Instead, I got concrete hedge boxes and lined them up around a foot from the small dividing wall and put in hedges that makes coming onto my driveway pointless unless one wants to then climb through a hedge. But, I left the one foot of space between the dividing wall and hedges so they can use the foot of space to traverse their equipment if need be, especially for the grandmother. Greng jai. I solved it with a solution that was considerate of everyone. I see nice hedging, lose around a foot of land that I have no use or want for, and they have some space to get around to the back of their house, plus it showed I'm not to be disrespected just because I'm a new American that just moved into to their territory to be walked over by some racist middle aged bull woman. -
They won't allow it if married to the mother, they will insist you get a marriage extension instead. The reason is the seasoning of funds, it isn't needed for the child based extension, so those with families could use it as a backway into not having to season the 400k. This caused issues for a friend whose wife was transferred overseas for a 2 year contract and the foreign husband and children stayed in Thailand. They refused to issue a child extension because he was still married to the mother, and refused a marriage extension because he was not living together with the wife. In the end he had to pay for an agent in another province that got him a marriage extension in that province for a large fee.

Why is the Thai Countryside full of discarded rubbish?
JeffersLos replied to stix40's topic in General Topics
To give poor and homeless people an opportunity to make a few baht and be able to afford some food. It's very considerate of everyday folk to purposely and nobly leave their trash everywhere and anywhere in order to help the poor and less fortunate. -
You're looking well for a 70+ year old.
