No doubt the builder will scrub this project from his CV! 

Usual, badly poured concrete design and structure. I'm actually surprised it does not happen far more. Looks to be too much concrete on small uprights to me

mai bpen rai

 

sell to falang cheap.   discount.  promotion.

 

good price for you.  lucky.   

 

once a falang said they build very good in Thailand.  I'm still laughing.  That was 5 years ago

At least the building owner had asked everyone to leave when they starting noticing the large cracks.

 

I guess the question now is if he will still expect them to pay rent.  ????

No building complience or inspection, hate to see what would happen if a major earth quake hit a city.

I guess footings were out of the question to keep the price down.
