Businessman Sued over Holiday Home that Looks Like Temple Pavilion
In a perfect world yes. I was speaking to an old guy in the village and he asked me who had built the house. I told and he appeared to approve. He then told me his own experience with another builder who is , I believe ' now the village headman. He said that this builder did not supervise the construction enough with the result that his minions did not put enough rebar in one of the kangs ( wall supporting foundations ) with the result that once the wall was on it it cracked and the wall on it cracked with it. Builder said it was not his fault just stupid employee. Most of the village workers are not trained builders. They are just day laborours. The builder you hire has the job of assembling a team of workers. He is supposed to be the one with the knowledge and should be the site foreman but they are often not upto the mark. I think most people having a house built these days can swat up on the internet and learn from the experience of others how things should be done. There are dedicated Thai websites where you can go for advice on everything these days plus a zillion youtube videos on the subject. The advantage of having a home built is that you can have it where you want. Away from things you don't like. If you buy something on a modern estate the house might be fine but it is a real lottery as to who you will get as neighbors. If you are single with no intention of ever getting in a permanent relationship then renting is the simple option. If on the other hand you are married and your wife has a nice bit of land then at least she will have a home if you should die first. Golden rule is don't do anything if you can't afford to walk away from it. That is , don't put your life savings into it or burn your bridges . -

Harris Voices Outrage in Interview with Howard Stern
Wow, for a moment there I thought you were talking about the military in NZ. The comment about "The ones who tolerate horrible living conditions across military bases" was especially true during my time in it. -

Has my sex tourist friend found a loop hole?
Oh what a sad life! Nothing better to do than keep driving around until a suitable Thai "prossie" is found outside a massage parlour that gives a happy ending. IMO disgraceful!. No further comment from me. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
Right. So is there any reason you didn't make a single tax related post on this forum between the time the multiple "Tax Guide" threads were created by user Mike Lister, and when that account ceased posting? Then, when user Mike Lister ceased posting, you immediately became the most active poster on every tax thread created by him? It's difficult to see that as a coincidence, and that, amongst many other coincidences, is why it keeps being pointed out to you.- 1

Unsafe at work: Thai experts sound the alarm on Mental Health Day
I would have thought inflation/cost of living/war would have been the highest priority mental health issue but who I am to argue against the WHO, the most trusted and neutral global organisation. -

Banking service???????
Not for THAT account, but do you have another account? Then you could just transfer those 1000 baht to your immigration account in the morning, before even leaving home. Skip the CDM machine, just update your passbook. Alternatively: If you have an ATM card for another account, you could also use that card to deposit money into your immigration account at a CDM. The card is only used to identify you the depositor, you can deposit money into accounts the card is not linked to (even other people's accounts at other banks). -
