    In Thailand I have seen U-turns performed across the entire width of the road without using turn signals, so let's see the CCTV-footage, before we make any final judgements. There could be other factors than drunk driving involved. 

    Exactly that happened to me  in my village yesterday  I blasted them with the car horn. They just looked with the inevitible smile!

    I would guess that a copy of the probate order or the disbursement from the Executer should be adequate, both should be easily obtainable.

    Adequate maybe, but it will need to be translated, and likely certified by ones Bangkok based Embassy, at exhorbitant cost, plus the inconvenience for many of travelling hundreds of kilometres to get it certified!!!!!!!!

  3. Back in 1987, my wife was not permitted to buy land as she was married to me.  We had her father "buy" the land, and it was mortgaged to me for security, to prevent the family selling without my knowledge.  Similarly  at that time, our 2 year old daughter who was born in the UK, was not allowed to have Thai citizenship, as she was born outside Thailand. She had Permanent Residency, like me, and it was not until she was 17, that she was given Thai citizenship.

    RUBBISH  -  I'm a farang with PR Status, and NOT a Thai citizen.  I cannot own land in Thailand and if a beneficiary in a WILL will need to sell any bequeathed land within 12 months

     

    That is correct. I too hold PR.

    However whilst one cannot inherit land, a condo is different, as the land is effectively leased, But if the foreign ownership of the entire condo is full, one may not be able to transfer ownership after death of the Thai owner.

    Any man who hits a woman is nothing short of a sewer rat yes Thailand is different as I have heard many woman say they have been hit by the thai husband but that does not excuse this guy from hitting a woman not related to him the only punishment is to deport him back to his home country his thai wife is free to go with him as the Swiss will give her a visa 

    Evidence of assault is required

    It seems hard to imagine that in your time there they regularly had to deliver fresh water from Pattaya. Probably electric outages as well.

     

    Not many Russians though?

    We did have mains water most of the time, but during the hot months tankers were sent from the Pattaya reservoirs to top up my tank.  Electric never seemed to be a  problem

     

    As for Russians, there just were not many people of any nationality at the beginning.

     

    Snakes a plenty! During my years there, I probably despatched 250/300--big buggers too!
