You'll need a power of attorney; use the standard Thai-form that you can buy in paper-shops. And yes, signed photo copies of ID-card and house book. Always check what the local Land Transport-office wish of paperwork for transferring it to a new owner, before buying any vehicle second hand. -

Trump will go after his perceived enemies
Read this. Maybe you'll learn something: https://www.politico.eu/article/why-donald-trump-hates-ukraine-us-congress-kyiv-war/ “Trump hates Ukraine,” said Lev Parnas, a Ukrainian-American businessman who once served as a fixer in Ukraine for Trump’s lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, and later turned against the former president. “He and people around him believe that Ukraine was the cause of all Trump’s problems.” At the recent meeting between Trump & Zelensky, Zelensky looked like someone in a hostage video because he basically is. If Trump wins Zelensky will need to pull out all the flattery and @ss-kissing he can to keep Trump from handing over Ukraine to Putin on a silver platter. -

Thailand retains 10th spot in Asia Power Index 2024
That makes no sense and you can Wikipedia the history. Albeit many different versions and time lines. There were two Muslim kingdoms to the south of Thailand: Kingdom of Kedah and Kingdom of Patani. Both were sovereign sultanates. With consent by the super power Great Britain apparently for trade concessions, Kedah was annexed by the Muslim Malaysian Federation and its heritage endured. Nice. Similarly, Patani was annexed to Buddhist Thailand and its heritage was smothered. There was no consent by the Patani Muslims for the annexation. -

German Tourist Arrested for Drug Use and Overstaying in Thailand
Why do Thai authorities take overstaying so seriously? A visa is only a rubber stamp that serves no real purpose other than getting foreign currency for the government. Applying for a visa should be for the sole purpose of vetting would-be visitors before letting them in to the country (Visas on arrival do not meet that requirement). While somebody is in Thailand they are still spending their foreign money with local businesses whether or not they have a current visa.. -

I Love Donald Trump
OMG, You vote for Trump and you don;t even know what he has said, what kind of empty promises Trump made. SHOCKING! Hear Trump: Trump vows to halve energy costs in 12 months. Few see that happening. (nbcnews.com) Here, read how Trump lied about gas prices: https://edition.cnn.com/2021/11/24/politics/fact-check-trump-gas-prices/index.html -

Effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination in children and adolescents
Please explain why this is nonsense. I think many of us would like to hear. Do you think young healthy people needed to and still need to be vaccinated for SarsCov-2 with mRNA vaccines? It would also be interesting to see your reasoning as to why a person who does not want to take the mRNA vaccine is an anti-vaxxer. This of course was part of the demonising campaign and completely without merit. -

Help needed to understand some points of a farang buying a house in Thailand.
Legally there is not such thing as 30+30+30 years land lease. 30-years is the maximum limit. Renegotiating for another lease period is always with a risk of changes rent-price, and if owner continuring wants to rent out the land; the land can have been sold or transferred to a new owner during the initial lease period. Any agreement with with additional terms beyond the initial 30-years lease are not easily to legally enforceable, as the agreement is not registered and in principle illegal. The value of a house – and yes, a foreigner can own a house, but not the land under it – is what a rent for the same house would be during the remaining period of a lease agreement, minus some discount and loss of interest for prepayment. So if you bought a 4 million baht house including prepaid lease agreement, the rent would be somewhere between 8% and 12% per year. If using the lower end, it's 320,000 baht per year; perhaps only 300,000 with annual prepayment, which equals 25,000 baht per month. 15 years left – if the house is in a maintenance condition for 25,000 baht per month, the remaining value would be 15 x 300,000 = 4.5 million baht, minus prepayment discount and loss of interest, so likely somewhere below 4 million baht. But it depends on market-prices, location and demand, so can be both more and less; if it's in a remote Isaan-village, you might not be able to sell anything at all. If using someone else's land for building a house you'll need a superficies or like permission, and the building permission issued in only your name together with construction agreements and all bills and payments, to be a house owner. Usufruct is in principle for farming – harvesting the fruits of the land – so in a few places the land office will not register an usufruct to a foreigner for a small village land-plot. You can instead use right of habitation, which gives you similar rights and free habitation. Don't forget that both usufruct- and habitation-right run for maximum 30 years or for life. In Thailand it's often best to be worth more alive than dead...
