Popular Post NCC1701A Posted January 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) why does this look like the worst possible design for dealing with large groups of people? how long until the trailers pop up in the parking lot to house people doing the actual work? is it also a control tower for Hua Hin airport? "OK 75 year old Expats in Hua Hin, 90 day reporting on third floor. sorry no elevator." very nice but unnecessary copy and photo lady made 50 million baht in the last 20 years, her office on top now and she owns the land.

Not sure the office could operate without her assistance. She seems to be key to every process and her efficiency is astounding. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rickthompson Posted January 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2019 And the picture is misleading. There are actually three 2-story office buildings behind the main building shown. Not sure what all the extra space is for, but this is way bigger than current site. Biggest issue I see is the sharp blind curve right before the entrance. Drive carefully boys and girls... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mwbrown Posted January 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2019 It would be hard to make a worse map than that. Just going to search Google maps for smart home. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukrules Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) That map sucks, not one landmark like Market Village or Bluport shown on there. It appears to be somewhere near the end of Soi 88. Edited January 29, 2019 by ukrules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never paid her more than 50 baht. The price of a visa has nothing to do with the services she provides. She makes copies, photos and organizes your documents. 50baht seems quite reasonable for assuring the success of your application. Not sure who you are referring to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including either of them would not really help in finding the new office. The map looks perfectly fine to me. As others have said, just search for Smart House Village on Google (or Google Maps). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceKadet Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 The Thai maps a re notoriously weird. The thing that works best for me is simple GPS co-ordinates. These locked in, I'm sure my GPS can find me the way. Almost everybody's got a GPS on their phones, no? And I don't have a clue what Mays Kitchen is... The new office is supposed to serve the whole of PKK province, over 220km of Highway 4. Pity they didn't build it in PKK city as the plan once was. Other than that, any comments on the new office? Did they get any new waiting chairs? improved the staff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceKadet Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Went past there yesterday, just to make the location. Thanks to the GPS coordinates. It's far from anywhere.... It will not be much fun when the IO want's additional copies of that or a printout of something else... Especially with a 2.5 hour drive home.... I hope they got new waiting room chairs....

sirocco Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Yes, especially for some expatriates who do not even know they are weird. For them, it is normality. Bizarre? You said weird? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirocco Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 My answer # 27 is a response to Message 25. I repeat, yes you can make an extension of OA to the new office, whose address and plan you drop down, up, the questions and answers of the Internet users, weird or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
