alex8912 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I think it was a little bold of you after the management told you you can't barbecue and you asked to see the rule in English only, don't you think? On the other hand maybe you should have invited the tattletale for a bite to eat and a drink! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me, have many palm trees and the fallen leaves are very flammable, a little dry limbs from tree. Can you buy little bundles of BBQ starter, What? Charcoal is sold in the stores near me. No issues if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand charcoal sold, I buy 20tbh for small bag. But what do you light it with? You live in a condo with no wood scraps handy. Usually started with a bit of wood and put charcoal atop.

How can the back entrance be far away from any building? Maybe one of the main entrances to the Baan with buildings as remote as 4-500 m????? Ever imagined this possibility???

JBChiangRai Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 There's probably a "catch all" in the rules about doing anything that can be considered a nuisance to other owners, BBQ smoke would definitely be included. It is illegal to have any gas bottle or gas appliance in a condo, it's not a matter of rules but the law of the land. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started my time here in Isaan where they use a piece of inner tube, plastic bottle or some times a piece of flip flop to start fire. No longer there. I use napkin soaked in cooking oil to start the wood, then throw on the charcoal. Man your way is high tech, going to try the fire starters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChipButty Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I have come to learn over the years of renting out property in Phuket BBQ's are a bad idea, what happens at a typical BBQ? people get <deleted> and do stupid things like leave it on all night, which has happened bye the way, I once built 4 bungalows for a friend of mine and him being an Aussie thought it was a good idea to put a BBQ it lasted about 3 months before he asked me to take it out, to start with not many people cleaned up after using it, people complaining in the other bungalows because of the smoke, And a Fire Hazard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Fairynuff Posted August 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2021 No condo I’ve ever owned has allowed BBQ unless it’s been requested beforehand and in the gardens away from residents, and it has to be the BBQ provided (at small cost) by the condo.. some condos without enough outside space just don’t allow. A BBQ on a balcony..... recipe for disaster. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There probably is nothing in the rules that says you can't leave a pet monkey in the lobby and let it defecate, urinate and screech.. Some things are just common courtesy/common sense... only smelling a little to you, might be a lot for some others.. and if it is a big building, how bad would it be if everyone did it? No problem in giving it a try but if you are offending others - stop. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Theory Posted August 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2021 If you want your condo common area becomes just like Thai beaches, keep doing it.

Popular Post jippytum Posted August 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2021 Some people who own or rent condos are inconsiderate to other residents .It should be obvious that if you allow BBQ's in the common area of a condo complaints will follow . The poster probably feeds stray dogs and cats with the leftovers . 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siftasam Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I tried it with my ex-girlfriend but people objected to the smell. So, I took what was left of her to the wat. The monks finished the job for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malthebluff Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 And soon everybody will be having bbqs and not so many will clean up plus the risk of fire and the smell. It may not be in the regulations its more like common sense has there are other people to consider imagine it the other way around somebody set up a fish stall near your condo and the smell was bad I'm sure theres no regulation that says they cant sell fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then called the Jursitic office and some the management came over and told us to stop cooking as its against regulation. I asked him to show me this regulation in English to confirm. That kind of behaviour gets you known as a troublemaker. It might not be an issue immediately but there’ll be a time when you need help from the jurisdictions office and it’ll be remembered. IMO it’s always best to follow the condo rules, even if they’re not in English. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
