If she has family there all the more reason not to live there, live as far away as possible from the outlaws, 

My buddy bought a building lot from her parents right next door.He now realizes it was a hug mistake.The "mom" is on kratom and frequently asks for beer.Chicken,dogs and everything else. Her family always have their hands out for money or non repayable loans.

Thats not all...he goes back home every summer for 5 months.2 years ago apparently she took out a loan on the house and she no longer has the chanote.So far hes had to repay the Chinese lady 600k. Happy retirement eh?

It turns out his lady is a gambler.OMG

Definitely some horror stories out there, however as some posters have mentioned, positive living arrangements nearby the parents do exist as well.

 

In our situation, her parents are lovely people and never ask for anything, we just prefer privacy and having scheduled visits as opposed to random village walk-ins.  Nothing malicious ????

Lived in Burirum for 8 years. It's not the place for anyone wanting diversity. In the village where I stayed I've got to say that there were many wierd farang.

Also to the south of the city there are many undocumented farang caught out by circumstances beyond their control (plummetting exchange rate, divorce etc) who are keeping their heads down.

That said, Burirum people are pleasant folk.

 

I had a connection to the Prakhonchai area over a 10 years period and your comment is spot on. Especially in the years after the 2008 subprime crisis, the chaos really started and the numbers of full time farang residents started dwindling.

Yes indeed, I read regularly these kind of remarks about anywhere that isn't Pattaya, Phuket or Bangkok. They're so BORING. I guess if your ambition is to sit in a third floor condo and go out at night to get unbored, then you'll be bored anywhere. 

I have my hobbies, participate in sporting events (something for everyone that is ready to get up and stop being BORED), don't expect to get someone in to do work for me that I can do (or attempt to do) myself, am learning all the time, have as much social life as I want (which generally means, not much) and have no problems with the neighbours or family living nearby in a small rural village. 

I lived in a Swiss mountain village for years, you could say that was boring also, and I dare say it would be for many people. I now live in one of the flatter parts of the world; no problem.

Most unfortunate. 

 

Within 300m of our house just about every maternal uncle,aunt, cousin, second cousin........of my wife's lives.

 

Never any issues. My wife has made it clear from the beginning that we are just another married couple and nothing special to see here. We never get any more visits than anyone else, or even that we make to them.

 

I've seen many people talk about the 2 hour or 5 hour rule. Such a shame that this has to happen. Get your wife, or even yourself, to simply have a chat with family similar to how my wife did.

 

If she won't entertain this, sadly 100 hours away won't solve the issue. 

Spot on mate.

I've lived in semi-rural Buriram province full time for just over 11 years.

MiL lives next door and the family are great. However life here is not for everyone. It's definitely life in the slow lane. To the OP, I would suggest renting for at least 6-9 months before buying/building, to make sure you are compatible with the life. Good luck.

A mate of mine went to live in sticky rice land, thought he was doing the right thing, the short story, he went to work and when he came back went to the mom and pop store and they gave him a bill, the family had been going in getting beer and said "Farang Pay"

This is true, it really depends on the individual and what they see as feasible entertainment.  We aren't night life people so we couldn't care less about bars.  My wife and I are focused more on the offerings of local restaurants, night markets, festivals, parks/nature, family safety, etc.  We like the culinary scene in Bangkok but otherwise aren't big city people by any stretch of the imagination.

 

Appreciate all the insights into those with experience living in Buriram.  For those who have sent a PM, thank you as well.

I lived in a Swiss mountain village for years, you could say that was boring also, and I dare say it would be for many people. I now live in one of the flatter parts of the world; no problem. 

It's not about nightlife for me. I find the area boring because it's all fairly flat unremarkable agricultural land with not a great deal of biodiversity. It's also a long way from the ocean and all the activities that can be done there. 

 

We moved to Pran Buri on the coast. It's not exactly party central either, but what it does have is a natural beauty that Buriram doesn't. There are nice untouched beaches, limestone cliffs, mountains, caves, good trails for hiking, interesting places to cycle. It's a lot more interesting than flat fields of rice, rubber, and cassava. 

 

There is also a far wider variety of people to meet. It is a bit of a stereotype to say that all foreigners in Isaan married a bargirl from Pattaya but there are many where that does apply. I remember after 1st meeting my wife and spending time in the village people were always asking this, so it must have been a fairly common thing. Maybe things have changed now though. I don't know. 

 

The last thing I would say is that for anyone with children there are far better choices elsewhere in Thailand. But I noticed that a lot of the older guys with children in Isaan didn't seem to care so much about the standard of education their children received, or maybe funds were limited from the pension. 

 

So you shouldn't conflate boring with a lack of nightlife.

This is the kind of comparison that is helpful to me personally, as I too enjoy the natural beauty and outdoors.  I have been to multiple Isaan provinces, but never Buriram, sounds similar.

With regards to education, international schools excluded, Buriram is a good a place as any for education in Thailand. There are some very good primary schools and the main secondary school is well regarded too.

 

Khon Kaen, Udon, Ubon, Surin, Korat also have very good schools.

You posted such phrases as " far better places", "don't care about education" and used "limited funds" as an excuse whilst speaking about Issan and the standard of education.

 

What was your point? From your wording it would seem you were, in your opinion, pointing out that the education offered in Issan was not good. However, you then agreed that Buriram, a part of Issan, was as good a place as any.????

Yes sorry, I concentrated on nightlife as if that's all that's important - there has to be more than that for me too.  I do like a good night out but I also like great scenery with things to do connected to that.

 

I would agree with bermondburi, its just flat and boring but the same thing goes for most of Isaan. With a few execeptions, once you get past the Lamtakhong Dam there's very little in the way of scenery until you get to the far North East of Isaan.  Its great for growing rice and that's about it.

 

But I'm biased - I live very close to a national park with rolling hills in the UK and my home in Thailand is very much the same.  I don't mind a night out in Pattaya or Bangkok but I'd rather see them both in my rear view mirror - I didn't settle on Thailand to waste my life away in beer bars.  My ex came from Buriram and personally I couldn't stay there much more than a couple of nights but I'd sit out on my balcony at Khao Yai every evening if I had to (happily not with her now ????).

 

I'm a biker and I can ride through beautiful scenery on reasonably decent roads for hours around my home area.  I can't think of anything worse than riding around Buriram with its endless miles of dusty flatness.

 

Things are improving, the main road is now dual carriageway right past Prakhon Chai and Buriram city is slowly modernising but they can't change the scenery or the terain.

That is very good to keep in mind.  Can always build a beautiful house in a rapidly developing town but if the surrounding terrain isn't that great to look at, what's the point...

 

I'm definitely a huge fan of the look of places like Khao Sok and the tropical lushness of some of the Southern provinces.

Right then, here goes. 

 

Yes, the education offered in Buriram is not of a high standard. Just as the education offered in government schools throughout Thailand is not of a high standard. 

 

I guess a lot of it comes down to what kind of future you see for your children, and where you see that future being, and English language, and exam certification is going to play a big part in that decision. 

 

I'll deal with the English language part first. There may be schools in Buriram with some kind of EP. I suspect, but I'm not certain so maybe you or someone else can provide better information here, that the EP would be limited to English language only. In other words there wouldn't be any other subjects taught in English, but only English language itself. Often these programs just guarantee more contact time per week with the ferrang, smaller class sizes, aircon room etc. A good money maker for the school. Face for the director and the parents who can afford to pay the extra. 

 

The closest entry level bilingual school I can think of would be Sarasas Witaed Nakhon Ratchasima. Somewhere like that, all subjects except Thai pretty much would be taught in both English and Thai. And bearing in mind this is entry level I don't believe Buriram to have anything like this. Why is this entry level? ????️????️

 

A few reasons. Firstly, class size may be up to 40 in a class, very similar to a Thai government school. Obviously the more in a class, the less teacher student contact time, and harder to maintain discipline etc. Classes have no aircon! No more needs to be said about that I think. And you have to ask yourself how qualified the teacher in the classroom is. Too often in Thailand it's about style over substance. A white face in the classroom to please the parents, so they can say that their pride and joy is taught by the guy from Manchester or Miami. It doesn't really matter what qualifications if any they have. Plenty of teachers working without proper qualifications in Thailand, and very easy in the backwaters to get away with it. 

 

So you have to ask questions about who the teacher is in that school in the EP in Buriram. 

 

Bearing in mind that a bilingual school like the one in Korat described above is only going to be doing O-net and A-net examinations, this leads me onto exam certification.

 

At some point as a parent you have to make a decision about what kind of future you want for your children. Personally I see my children going to university in the UK. For this they're going to need transferable qualifications if going later in childhood. They will need IGCSE if going to do A-level in the UK normally, or at least having the English ability to be able to keep up. Same applies if going to do GCSE in the UK, or at an earlier age. Do you see why it's important to be doing other subjects in English now. It's because you need that subject specific vocabulary to help you. 

 

There is no way that any school in Buriram can provide this. If you see your child going to university in Thailand and having a life in Thailand, fine, doesn't matter in the slightest. A Thai education in Buriram will be perfect for a Thai University, but I think we can both agree that the standards are lower. Many foreigners like to make the argument that their child is fluent in English etc, but quite often they may not have great written skills or the child may be lacking a lot of subject specific vocabulary. Of course, there are exceptions. But that school in Buriram is going to limit the child's options in the future. 

 

You may disagree, but a lot of this does come down to money at the end of the day. Even that school in Khorat is going to set you back about 80k a year, and that's just for bilingual. A proper English program with 80% English will be double that at least. A full international where all teachers have QTS, double that again if not triple or quadruple that! I spent enough time in Isaan to know that this is beyond a lot of retirees means. Not their fault, it is what it is and I totally understand, but it still doesn't make the school in Buriram as good. 

 

Like I said, if the child stays in Thailand then none of this matters, and a bright child will do well anywhere. But only think how well a child that reaches their full potential might do. 

 

But if you're happy with everything in Buriram, do what you think is best, as the Thais say, it's up to you!

If you think that no aircon in 40° is ideal, give yourself a gold star and a big pat on the back.

And then again you can plan in a year of schooling in the UK after secondary school, which is what we will be doing with our grandchild (Covid permitting) in two years time. Further education in Thailand if deemed desirable would follow.

Everyone has to do what they think works best for them. Bear in mind that if studying in the UK after secondary in Thailand pre degree level in Thailand that would be A-levels, which are normally 2 years, so that year might turn into 2 for it to be worthwhile. Would probably be a big jump as well from finishing secondary in Thailand to A-level in the UK unless spoken and written English is perfect. It's tough I know. Hope it all works out.

They are all covered by the Teachers' Council of Thailand and all schools, whether top 5 in Bangkok or Village school, need to be given the all clear to hire teachers. There is the possibility of teachers working illegally, I agree, but this too is becoming less and less and can also happen at any school in any place. As was recently highlighted in the reports about Sarasas schools in Bangkok and Nonthaburi.

 

"Ask yourself this? If these schools are so good, why do Thais so actively seek out extra classes, private tuition, language schools, cram schools etc for their children?" Happens all over Asia. The culture that "more is good."

Full Thai education, nursey through to K12, then a year of education in UK. Then move on to further education. The only exception is that the examples I have seen have gone on to University in UK.
