Buying a house for your wife is completely legal and for that matter, buying your GF a house is also legal.  In the latter you don't even have to sign anything.  She is by default the owner.    The OP is confusing illegal gifting ( not a gift -555) with legal gifting.  Or maybe he mentioned to his lawyer that he and his wife have a side agreement ( written or spoken) that the proceeds upon selling the property will be divided.  This is illegal.</description><pubDate>Mon, 22 Jun 2026 06:57:40 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Old school Thailand</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397230-old-school-thailand/?do=findComment&comment=20564364]]></link><description>Haircuts come in at 30 - 40 Baht in rural Chiang Rai (admittedly it does look like it was done by the council, but my daughter loyally proclaimes that it makes me look young and handsome) coffee around B40, buses and sonthaws are peanuts.

Our neighbor has one. Long process detailed here by AI. You must have some form of house registraion.  To legally park in designated handicap spaces in Thailand, you must first obtain a National Disability ID Card issued by the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security (MSDHS). Thailand does not issue temporary or separate "parking-only" permits; all parking rights are tied to this official disability card. [1, 2] Eligibility &amp; Requirements To qualify, you must be a Thai citizen or a foreign resident with a valid yellow house registration and an official non-immigrant visa. You will need: A certified medical certificate from a government hospital (or specified private clinics) proving your physical, intellectual, or sensory disability. (Note: If your disability is visibly permanent, such as missing limbs, a medical certificate may no longer be required, and community verification can be used instead). Your Thai ID Card or Passport. Your House Registration (Tabien Baan). Two 1-inch photos taken within the last 6 months. [1, 2, 3] Step-by-Step Application Process Prepare Your Documents: Gather your medical certificate, ID/Passport, house registration, and photos. If you are applying on behalf of someone else, you will also need a Power of Attorney and a copy of the caregiver's ID. Visit Your Local Office: Submit your application in person at your local District Office (Khet) or your provincial Disability Service Center (ศูนย์บริการคนพิการ). Wait for Assessment: In some cases, officials may assess your condition or verify your living conditions. Receive Your Card: Once approved, you will be issued a Thai Disability ID Card. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Using the Parking Permit Once you have the National Disability ID Card, you can present it to security staff at malls, airports, and public buildings to access reserved parking spaces. [1, 2] For more information, visit the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities or call their 24-hour hotline at 1300.

You also make a valid point - younger reckless drivers are far more problematic. More of a concern are the older folk on motorcycles - IMO - for their own safety.  I think in this example - the old fella was using two feet to drive - that seems to be the way most similar incidents occur - tapping the brake at the same time as accelerator and panicking - the issue is with the initial training.</description><pubDate>Mon, 22 Jun 2026 06:55:45 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Thai Police Arrest French Man in Cha-am For Ponzi Scam</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397229-thai-police-arrest-french-man-in-cha-am-for-ponzi-scam/?do=findComment&comment=20564361]]></link><description>Anyone who invests believing they will see a 15% profit per month does not deserve to have money in my opinion.

I contacted Visa too and got the same reply reproduced above. So we just have to wait now. As for using XE or another site - no, Visa has its own rates. Sometimes there is a big difference, especially if you are withdrawing several thousand dollars worth. Besides, I just want to know exactly what my dollar is worth. I use XE to get a general idea, that's it.</description><pubDate>Mon, 22 Jun 2026 06:44:27 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Foreign Nationals Defecate Outside Patong Shop</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397224-foreign-nationals-defecate-outside-patong-shop/?do=findComment&comment=20564349]]></link><description>Exactly.
