Yes, it gets violent. Sounds like a story, but true. Happened at a bar we all frequented. A friend snatched a girl in a bar. When he left, he got jumped by the other gang, severely beaten up, thrown into a car and driven to the 'burbs, stripped down to his underwear, and dumped into a dark alley. Clothes and wallet never found.

What documents is the juristic condo person required from the owners.
CecilM replied to arick's topic in Chiang Mai
Gov't is cracking down on landlords and tenants abusing the system. Condo juristic person has to comply and provide documents. -
Return of Rental Deposit.
CecilM replied to Jumbo1968's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
No, you are not within your rights to do this. Pay rent is your contractual obligation. Returning deposit is his obligation. If not, go to court. Self-help by not paying isn't how society works. Sucks that the landlord is in the position of power. But that's the way it is. -

Might the quality of the plane/service be in correlation to its destination? -
Thailand Customs to Apply VAT on All Postal Imports
CecilM replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not surprised. I just paid 2k tax on four shirts that my family sent via FedEx. (Why they didn't declare it properly and why they sent them via FexEd is a different story.) -
Foreigner Breaks Police Lock on Illegally Parked Bike in Phuket
CecilM replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
I know Thais who haven't paid their speeding and parking violations in 20 years. And are proud of it. Still, dumb tourist. Should know and behave better. -
In a plastic bag and into the tank of the toilet. (Assuming he has a toilet and not a squatter with water bucket.)

Songkran festival sees surge in road accidents across Thailand
CecilM replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I remember reading that only on-site deaths are recorded. That number doubles if you count those that die on the way, and in, hospital. -
I remember water trucks filling up at the river and delivering to Khao San. And people then aiming deliberately at eyes, ears, and mouth. Not my idea of fun.

A no frills cremation at a temple in Bangkok will run you about 10-15k. Ashes/bones will be handed over in a cloth bag in a box. Scattering the ashes in the river (taking a boat out from the pier at Pakred) is well under 5k. Even cheaper if it's at a temple outside of Bangkok. It's free if you find access to a river without watchful eyes.

Lost Bike Keys, How can I get the bike started again?
CecilM replied to truthfix's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
Go to the dealer and order a new set of keys. -
I tried the captcha on a phone, but it just would not work. So I switched to a laptop and it worked immediately. No issues with online 90-day reporting. I just recently submitted it and it was approved within 4 days.

As long as you don't mind seeing your butt photos all over social media by peeking neighbors, then go for it.

Support doesn't mean an immediate change of lifestyle. Doesn't sound like a decent neighborhood. Move.

And now google "microplastics in everyday items like toothpaste, creams, cosmetics, etc."

Seems about right. Years ago it was already $130 for one extra suitcase.
-
Was it agreed beforehand that the money would be returned? Probably not. So why complain now? (And 150k is cheap. So even less of a reason to complain.)

Condo or house,resale experience?
CecilM replied to sanook 1's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
Selling a 'normal' condo takes ages and you're lucky if you get what you paid for it. (Speaking from experience.) Things might be different in the high end luxury market. -
