  1. By Private Interests, does this mean that they have deals with Jet Ski operators, Taxi bandits, Tuk Tuk thieves and Russian gangsters? I mean other than the usual arrangements.
  2. The English I have heard from the Thai teachers is dreadful. If they are going to be serious about it, let the retired falangs volunteer a few hours a day to help. If budget is an issue, there are thousands of qualified teachers in India available. Dreadful accents but proper vocabulary. I would be happy to throw in an Algebra class for free.
  3. Try AShampoo.Com, they sell an Office knockoff that works great. I think I paid around 20 usd for three licenses. Get on their mailing list and wait for a promotion. You can also download OpenOffice for free. It works great for basic office functions. https://www.openoffice.org/download/
  4. They will find more Cambodian girls than overstaying falangs.
  5. OK, it is a condo that they want to sell. She has been staying there for several years. She is a reasonable tenant that does not trash her home and pays consistently. Mature adult with grown kids, no booze, no drugs, no stupid. I can't help much with a Thai lease, I know some people that might be able to help there though. She has an opportunity to occupy a smaller unit in the building but it is not the unit she rented.
  6. With an English license they will not need an IDP. If Thai language is available online they might choose to accept it. Thai is not offered in the IDP books.
  7. What are the normal termination term for renting a condo? One day notice when payments are up to date does not seem reasonable. Every lease I ever had was at least a month, both ways. Does anyone know Thai tenancy laws? Moving is not the issue as much as the timing.
  8. I would allow an additional two hours, just because, you don't know. The 20k cash is a good point, record the serial numbers, just in case.
  9. Front shocks are 1000 for the full kit, rears are 800 for the pair. Installation is easy but will vary by shop. I would expect under 1000 for all four. It all depends on where you live.
  10. Reaction and colors for me. I have never seen the famous video, not that it would be a big deal.
  11. You need to set up a will and an end of life document naming him as your heir and EOL administrator. The disbursement of your Aussie holdings will be under Aussie law, the Thai law does not matter there.
  12. We don't even know the rules and rates yet. There is nothing to discuss.
  13. Flying is more effective than land borders unless you have a story. A bus trip to Angkor Wat is much more plausible than a one day bounce, particularly to Myanmar. You can do a few exemption entries but they can refuse you at the border at will.
  14. The frigate makes a lot more sense, there are practical missions available. A submarine in the gulf of Thailand is a useless target.
  15. You request the report a week in advance and then go directly to immigration from there.
  16. What was the trigger? Knife attacks are never acceptable but neither is stuffing check bins. Regardless, I hope he enjoys his extended stay in Chiang Mai.
  17. You either need to have 400k in the bank for two months before you apply or 12 certified and stamped bank statements, dated the day of the application, showing transfers of at least 40k each and every month. Watch out for this in December if you are relying on the US Government to make deposits directly. The chaos caucus is planning on payment delays.
  18. How long is a string? The actual milling job maybe 6000. The disassembly/assembly part could vary from 10k to 200k. Boring cylinders is going to be a lot more. No such thing as a head cylinder, but there are cylinder heads. Are you sure you know what you are doing?
  19. No, even less so with a Blue book. The house book is your residence certificate.
