GAZZPA Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 There seem to be a growing number of places here that you can go to where your body will never be found again. Not sure where it goes but just know its dealt with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suradit69 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 In Chiang Mai they have the foreigners graveyard,where if you are a long term resident,you can buy a plot,got mine bought already,as I don't want to be cremated,and definitely not shipped back to the UK, it cost 15k,but i think the price has gone up since then.not sure if there are others around Thailand. regards worgeordie And some people think it is impossible for a foreigner to own land here. My church has plots available to members. The land still belongs to the church and, in theory, your plot is yours for 30 years ... although there are occupants there who have been in "residence" for longer than that.

facthailand Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Not precisely on topic but i wish there was some provision for sky burials or natural organic burials in thailand. Off the westcoast of British Columbia where we go each summer, the First Nations used to 'bury' people on cedar platforms in the trees with a few of their favourite possessions. If I croak there, that would be my first choice, recorded in my will, and I have a few doc friends who have said they'll do the paperwork. I fed the birds in this life and I'd like to keep feeding them in the next. That said, I might die here. And I don't want my family to incur the extra expence of accomplishing such a BC tree burial from long distance. I agree though; burning is just more pollution.

dotpoom Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Those Chinese cemeteries you have to be members of the Association associated with the cemetery be buried there...also most are family plots. All Thai temples have nitches in them but I'm not sure what it takes to have one's ashes interred there. Most farangs I know, when the time comes, get fired-up and then the remains dumped in the ocean. There's a temple on the oceanside of town just as one enters Pattaya on the highway that has a long pier jutting into the ocean that is often used for this purpose. I sent off two friends here personally. However, if I were you, I wouldn't wouldn't worry about it as you're hardly likely to care what happens to your corpse after you're dead. Most people worry about these things not for themselves.....but for those who will be left with the task of disposing of one's body....money being the major concern. Would't want them to have to come up with the money to pay for everything after your gone (although it's amazing how many people share your sentiments).

Stevemercer Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 They have started a new green process in Canada. They dissolve your body in some kind of solvent like acid strain it and dump the liquid down the sewer. They then crush the big bones. There is a suggestion for budding entrepraneurs who want to start a new exciting business here. There should be a never ending supply of customers. The ultimate next step is soylent green - coming to a store near you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorecard Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 You can get regular burial or get shipped home, too. I have experience with all kinds of procedures incl. sea burial / ashes etc. Worked with several Funeral Services. By far the best and in most cases also the most affordable was/is Allison Monk Funeral Home Services, Kh. Dau. Fantastic service from A to Z. All documents, police reports, embassy, airlines, temple photos, morgue and autopsy issues etc. And not 1 Baht extra with constant updates. Perfectly happy and recommend them often. MS> You don't mention the freight costs involved. Already discussed several times before on TV and it's far from cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smotherb Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 My uncle Willie arranged to be cremated and his ashes placed in a large bronze standing ash tray and he donated the rather expensive bronze artifact to his local cigar store. He wanted people to think he was gaining weight after his death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberfarang Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Cryogenics. Get the wife or partner to put your body in the freezer after you die, and if no major power cuts and the freezer lasts for the next 400 years, technology may have found a way to resurrect you by then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the police are done, have the body sent to a temple to be cremated and then the ashes can be stored or returned to nature or if the family wishes to receive them "back home," they can easily be sent by mail. This can all be done for about US $ 1000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fookhaht Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Our local hit man suggested a cement block tied to the ankles and then dumped at any klong, lake or sea. He has experience and will do just about anything for a price. He's a helpful sort of guy like that. Edited June 23, 2016 by Fookhaht 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shot Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Not precisely on topic but i wish there was some provision for sky burials or natural organic burials in thailand. my wish would be for my corpse to decompose naturally and return to the soil in the earth in a natural way. in this way, my organic matter can provide nourishment to other creatures during decomposition and then come "back to life" in the beauty of a plant or tree. there are cemateries in the west that place the unadorned corpse in a shallow burial to facilitate this natural decomposition. a sky burial, where the corpse is left out for scavengers to feed on is another natural alternative. another attractive option is some places mix the creamation remains with cement to make large "reef-balls" that are dropped into the ocean to make or rehabilitate artificial coral reefs. all of these options seem preferable to being pumped full of preservatives and left in a box in the ground to slowly putrify into some mushy goo. Agree about the organic burial. You might be interested in this>> http://urbandeathproject.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it is owned I believe by the British Embassy and vested in a trust but one of the members here knows a lot more about that and may like to tell us. Otherwise do a search of past theads .

Alive Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 There should be more choice for Atheists like me. There's an opportunity there. Crocodile party, sharkfest, or maybe acid bath.

DrTuner Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I believe a popular option is to be fed to the crocodiles. Ask your closest friendly wiseguy for details. I prefer the BBQ myself, relatives get a few bones as a souvenir. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
