My New House In Korat

[Spin]

^ party on dude, green on its way

[dirtydog]

I sometimes make a party at the local school for the kids which in returns makes me feel good & also I get the respect from the people in the village, could you do that in Pattaya the only thing they respect there is your money.

So the parties for the schools don't cost anything then?

[tamadah]

I just noticed that it is your shop as well so I guess you can't move out of town.

Not much room for expansion but you might want to be carefull regarding the "no costs at all " comment. With a flash place like that and a Farang owner the locals would see no reason to pay for what they take.

could you do that in Pattaya the only thing they respect there is your money.

Aww Jason I was going to compliment you on your new pile but then you had to have a bash at Pattaya....

[Ban Saray]

Not far from Pattaya, Bang Saray is almost rural.
I have a lot of local friends, and you can give presents to the schools for occasions such as Xmas and birthdays.
I also have a house (our first) in Ban Phrang, out past Nong Thai in Korat.
I visit once a year to inspect the teak farm.
The locals there love me more than down in Bang Saray, mainly because they are all related, and I have known them longer (15 years)
Shops tend to be centres of activity, and we tried it, unfortuneately the wife knows f#ck all about business, after I did the books found out she was paying everyone 1-2 baht to have a bowl of soup.
She also tended to allow credit to all relatives (90% of the village) so I shut the place down, and we moved to Bang Saray.
Wish you all the best mate, and will be up there for the school holidays, looking forward to the rest and having a few quiet ones.

hi jason...i,m seeking a builder to build a 2 bedroom bungalow in a small village just outside of Pak chong..dontt suppose the builder who build your house would be interested? thanks

[somtamslap]

The thread's nearly a decade old, love. Jason's probably licking his wounds back in London by now, and, if I was feeling malicious, I'd venture the builder has hung up his trowel and taken to the bottle (with Jason's cash) for a living.

I have a property in Pak Chong and know the area well - where abouts are you, Kazzer?

[NZdick1983]

Sounds like you are happy Jason... (and that's all that matters)..

On ya bro!

[Luigi]

He was almost a decade ago, anyway.

Probably been cleaned out since then.

[NZdick1983]

Oh, sorry.. I didn't see that... my bad.

I wonder what happened to the lad..? (I hope he wasn't cleaned out bro)..

Hope he's still happy living with his family.

[karen960]

Hi somtamslap...were are in Sap poo, near nong hin as my husband pronounes it. its about a 30 min car ride to Pak Chong centre. Would appreciate any help or contacts that you can give.

[JASONTHAI]

I am still alive and happy married with a 11 year old son, we have been in the UK for over 6 years and now have moved back to Thailand to live, business setup in the UK which pays me enough to live here, and before you ask what business its none of your business

House has just had new rewiring and lighting put in.

I see I cannot still add pictures I have on my PC as I need a url, nearly 10 years now and this problem has not been sorted, and I thought the Thais were bad lol

You just upload them into the TD gallery.

Oh never mind, to hard if ya ain't done it before.

Great little house by the way mate. Not all need the Farang mansion Eh.

I don't profess to be clever Jason but if I can do it it has to be very simple. Piece of piss really.

[birding]

Right on, those who post "All Thai's are" topics havent got a clue.

[JASONTHAI]

I was going to give it a go but decided against it as I would most likely get silly remarks, like some of the ones here

Let them go over your head. It's just normal TD banter that should be ignored. Seems some smart arses on here love it when posters flounce.

[Stumpy]

What part of Korat.

[Dead Metal]

Hi Jason, are you still at the same house/shop ? Looks good, not too big, easy to maintain.
