  1. Excuses is the wrong paraphrase, from his, and few others active in this thread, post history it is obvious they are living in denial.
  2. Wittaya was never mayor of pattaya, Sontaya was mayor in 2018
  3. Wiping the rubber with tissue, it looks green. What and where is the gaiter?
  4. Strange that your post get liked, but when I yesterday said exactly the same, with much fewer words, I attract only confused emoji's.
  5. Maybe he was taking his men out, but to be honest, it more looks like a senile old man who doesn't know which planet he's on. We have seen this plenty of times in the past few years.
  6. After more than 250km since I started this thread, I just checked again, and the rubber is wet, but it doesn't leak that much that there are drips under the car. Oil in the reservoir is still at maximum. Should I replace anyway, or wait until it get worse? Is there a risk that the car breaks down?
  7. I think in more than 90% of swift transfers an intermediary bank, which will charge a percentage of the transferred amount, is involved
  8. Who wouldn't be jealous on a financial expert who sold bitcoin, which declined by 10% in the last 30 days Keep trolling Bob
  9. I see many currency experts are too confused to understand some commonly known fact that banks only pay high interests when they need the money. Then I see one of them claiming here that he is on a winning streak, because his Canadian bank just increased the interest from 4.8% to 5.5%. Keep winning mate, keep winning
  10. Banks don't pay high interests for no reason. If UK banks pay high interests then something is at the horizon. Usually it is because they need to support their currency
  11. Talk about contradicting oneself There are no "rare" case of house chanotes, there are NONE. I suggest you stop digging when you are in a hole. Chanote is a land title deed, not a build title deed Oh yes they do, and they were very well informed about the existence of MY house on that piece of land, because it increases the official value on which taxes have to be paid. Nothing to do with the mortgage, since that one is registered on the back of the chanote, and if I declare it has been paid, that is where it ends for the land department. The announcement at the Orbotor, which has nothing to do with the land department, is because the house is OWNED by a foreigner, and can be transferred to a FOREIGNER.
  12. Sounds to me more as a family (as in organized crime families) than just Hunter. Tell me if you want 10 more credible links, as I'm sure you will discredit this one https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12068669/Bidens-GRANDCHILDREN-Hunters-current-wife-10-family-members-got-foreign-cash.html Those who benefitted included Hunter Biden, Hallie Biden, Kathleen Buhle, Melissa Cohen Biden, James Biden and his wife Sarah Also includes the grandchildren and nieces, nephews of Joe Biden There is one additional unknown bank account related to a Biden that received payments
  13. A chanote is a land title deed. never heard about a house chanote. Since you seem to know, maybe you can provide a link to a house chanote. BTW, my house is not in a gated village, neither has it been built by a developer. If I decide to sell I don't need to change the name on the building license. Does the name on a building license get changed if any house is sold here or anywhere else in the world? The answer is no. As I explained already, if I decide to sell it has to be publicly announced at the Orbotor for 2 weeks, before it can be sold, and the buyer will get a legal contract that he owns the house. Why I know this, because I have informed myself about that at the land department when I had a buyer of the land and house a few years ago.
  14. Witnesses many years ago on the junction North Pattaya road and Sukhumvit. 'someone" very important was leaving the Dusit resort, and traffic was stopped on North Pattaya road and Sukhumvit At the same time an ambulance from BHP coming on Sukhumvit towards the hospital with blaring sirens. When the ambulance reached the traffic lights, a policeman jumped in front and hit with his stick on the windscreen to make him stop.
  15. So your solar installation produces in a day enough kWh to charge your car and provide sufficient electricity for your house? That must be a million dollar installation. https://www.forbes.com/home-improvement/solar/how-much-power-does-a-solar-panel-produce/ On average, a standard residential solar panel with an output rating of around 250 to 400 watts. If your home has six hours of sunlight daily, you can expect to generate approximately 546 to 874 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity annually.
  16. I replied to a quote by you that you charge for free through your solar installation, while in fact that installation has cost you hundreds of thousands of baht. So how can that ever be free? That is your personality, unable to see real life facts, and making up things to justify your LAME points. Here is another one for you. I have a ICE powered truck, and it cost me exactly nothing in consumption or maintenace, because I push to and from the local 7/11. You think I made a fair statement?
  17. Not rattling my case at all. And what you mean with my personality? Is it that I saw through your lame arguments, and gave you some real life facts? Oh, still waiting for the info on who does free solar installations
  18. ONE real long distance trip a year will use up 5 hours of charging Well yeah, you could also say that your long distance trips are to the 7/11 around the corner, but limiting yourself to make a point is quite lame. You got free solar installed? Please provide a link to the company, everyone would like to have 100's of thousands baht in solar installation for free. So the fast charger is faster than filling up the tank of an ICE. There are no hotels with FREE charging, it is included in the price of the room. So, and on the way home another time waste of charging
  19. you're wrong again, but I'm not gonna start a discussion with you, because you are renowned for always claiming to know everything better. Maybe you are Liverpool Lou's brother? The name on the building license, blueprints done by the Orbotor, and building contracts determines the ownership of the building. That the the landowner had to give permission at the orbotor that I could get a building license in my name on her land, is confirmation that she agrees with it. I never said that the mortgage had anything to do with ownership, maybe learn to read, but the land can not be sold as long as the mortgage hasn't been fully paid. https://www.thailandlawonline.com/thai-real-estate-law/ownership-and-buying-real-estate-in-thailand#4 Foreign house ownership separate from the land Ownership of a house in Thailand can be transferred separate from the land it stands on. Land and house could have different owners and in a long term lease construction it strongly advised to follow the correct procedure to obtain legal ownership of the house. Transfer of a structure separate from the land must be in writing and registered with the competent authority (i.e. the Land Department's branch or provincial office). The right to own a building upon another man's land always relates to the term an right to use and possess the land (i.e the term of the land lease and/ or the right of superficies term). https://www.thaiembassy.com/property/buying-property-in-thailand It is a commonly unknown fact that although a foreigner cannot own land in Thailand, he can own the house or structure built thereon. One only has to apply for a construction permit to build the house in his own name.
  20. Wrong. I own my house, built on land owned by a Thai national. Building license and everything in my personal name, for which the landowner had to give permission. On the land is a mortgage, provided by me, which is registered at the land department, and written on the back of the title deed. If the land ever needs to be sold, which only can be done after the mortgage has been paid to me, the sale has to be announced for 2 weeks at the Orbotor, to ensure that the house is free of any debts. That said, the building is not specified on the chanote, and as far as I'm aware never is.
  21. This play of words should be avoided whenever mentioning this traitor
  22. This is my experience 2 weeks ago. I was in Europe and my Thai SIM didn't connect to the network, probably because I hadn't enabled roaming. I booked flight upgrade online using my Kasikorn debit card. Was asked for the OTP, which I of course didn't receive. I ticked resend twice, but obviously still didn't receive one. I then clicked cancel, and the transaction was approved instantly. ????
