  1. I was just talking to a buddy of mine who is Australian (I am American, and clueless about Australian politics, ) on FB, he had dropped off the face of the world and then I saw he posted a picture of a lake , and I said that looks nice where is it, and he said "Australia" , I said what are you doing in Australia, and he told me he had to go back and do the two years for his pension. That's crazy!! He has to leave his house and wife here, and go live in Australia for two years so he would not lose his Pension? And he explained the situation to me. What a crazy and stupid thing, no wander he is always complaining about Australian politicians, It is crazy because it's your pension, you earned it. He said they dont want retired people to leave the country with their pension. That's stupid If I was them I would want all the old people who use all the services and medical to leave . Anyway , I feel bad for you guys. Hope the change that stupid system.
  2. I am still not sure what your answer is because you bifurcate and qualified the answered with the " propaganda ministries. " comment. Originally you told me that they were "which houses the ministry of economic development, the digital ministry and the ministry of industry and trade. " and provided a link, now you say that these were not economic development . digital, industry, and trade miniseries but rather "controlled civilian propaganda ministeries. " what is that suppose to mean. Then you made a comment about " Pathetic comparison"???? Where did I compare anything? Please provide quote.
  3. Thank you for that , Wife is waiting for us to go Out, but I would want to ask you a bit more when I have more time about your rental experiences Thank you for your reply
  4. I am sorry as it pretrains to real estate the only meaning for EEC I know is Energy Efficiency Certificate. Could you please expand on that term.
  5. First let me start by tanking you all for taking the time to reply. I's appreciated!!1 I am not familiar with that area, Appreciate the heads up, I will take a look I realise that there is the liquidity issue. This a long term investment . This is my first step towards researching the issue, At this time I an trying to learn what would the right questions be to be asking myself and others . If I do decide to buy, how lowere from the asking price do you think I should be offering. I am not! I am here as a first step towards learning more about the area. Issue, and perhaps other areas I should be thinking about. At this point I don't even know , if I am asking the right questions. Like what are the average maintenance (HOA) fees and what do they cover, I was thinking about Airbnb. have not rely looked into it yet. But yes Midterm rentals might be an option . That was my thinking also , If I could subsidize the property appreciation return with mid term rentals or an Airbnb type of setup then I can have a place to stay at for a couple of months and get a decent return down the line on my investment. Who knows if we like it there, and I could convince the wife to move , we perhaps could sell the house in Khon Kaen. Trust me I would not mind getting out of this area, as nice as it is.
  6. With all do respect my friend, I posted asking if these were civilian targets to which you chose to reply, You make a lot of good but arguable claims , but that was not my question nor do I wish to argue any of these arguable points, First I said that these look to me like civilian targets to which you replied that they were trade ministries and such. I answered back. Aren't ministries civilian. Perhaps you answer it, but if you did it was buried in a bunch of other diflections , If so please please cut the portion where you did, and paste it in a reply.
  7. As the title implies We have some money sitting making a little less than 5% and we were thinking of perhaps buying a condominium. Anyone who has any experience, is that a good investment. what is the market like there? how are resales ? I know very little about the area and would appreciate and advice.
  8. Again the question is,are these civilian targets. A question you desperately are trying not to answer.
  9. Were these at weren't these civilian targets?
  10. And the ministry of economics development the digital ministry and ministry of industry and trade are not civilian organizations ?
  11. These look to me like civilian targets
  12. There is a case to be made for renting But did your friend clarified if she did not like sex. or she did not like sex with him? I mean after having joined the first class mile high club everything else......well lets just say , is at best business class ????
  13. I want to but I am unclear . I mean my friend is unclear. The with a partner part , do both of the partners need to be human?
  14. A electrical pressure washer (not too expensive) works miracles . I do it twice a year. If you get one you would be pressure washing everything that does not move LOL

    Beach

    No I have the same problem with my dog digging up my garden.
  16. Sorry to hear that. Are you doing it right?
  17. Your extension and any re-entries you might have expires on the last day of said extension, and you have to start over again, My extension expired while I was out of the country last summer because I was in a third country as a tourist and did not want to bother getting a non O visa , I came back wisa exempt and started the process again, but it was not a big deal and not that much more work. Mine was moree marriage and I always have the funds in the bank.
  18. 15,000 baht a shot? and she still was not happy. I'd say your friend wasn't doing something right. Have you spoken with him about the birds and the bees?
  19. If indeed she has broken the law , absolutely!!
  20. They are a bunch of hypocrites. I suspect atheists and agnostics are better Christiane than they are. I also hope Graham's' ass gets what he deserves, and this festering boil on the ass of the body politic . along with many other republicans is removed.
  21. I sympathise with you, As the site safety manager for a High-rise construction co, in the US. before moving to management, I was climbing up and down the top three floors our company was responsible for, (floors below were handed to other trades). My legs are shot!! (Swimming laps is good, low impact exercise for that) Anyway, We build our house while I was working and made three times what my retired income is now, And build the two story house I always wanted) Big mistake because back then I never thought I would get older. Lucky for me I did, and going up those stairs is a pain. I will walk up to go to bed only to realise I forgot my phone in the car, down the stairs and Up the stairs again, Grrr Another thing to consider is although wood is wonderful (I love it) . It requires a lot of maintenance, and you might be willing and able to do so now, but what about when you get older? and how about after you pass away and you leave the wife along , would she be able to maintain it? Anyway just some food for thought, you best know your what you like and need. Start your own Thread so we can flow you building story. Best of luck
  22. I always found the reporting in Asean Now forum to be species-centric with an obvious bias in support of humans. How about the prevailing Human oppression of water buffaloes. (or is the correct term Buffaloid) ?? Hee picture below. Personally I am outraged and have half a brain to report them!
  23. Graham is a boot licker and a reprihensible human deing , every time I see him I am reminded of a caricature represented in comedies about corrupt politician in the south ???? His moral compass is a weather vane. When he wakes up in the morning he sticks his thumb out the window to see which way the wind blows and whos ass he needs to kiss. When he thought McCain was going to be president , he was his best friend , then even though trump was trashing McCain, when it seemed like trump might win he became trump's best friend. Then when it looked like trump was finished he dumped trump but just as soon as he realised that he was not done he reversed course and became trump's best friend again.
  24. Personally I find it reprehensible that particular ethnic group would be targeted. What about other roaming foreigner houligans? What about those Belgians? with their chocolate eating ? descarding chocolate wrappers all over the place . Not only is it unsightly but a safety issue . And how about all the Aussies with their shrimp eating? (sorry prawns).
