Hope to Get a House in Bangkok
As comparing to Malaysia, I quite like my life in Bangkok, even if I don’t have a lot of friends here. Luckily, I’m in keeping touch with some buddies online and thus I don’t feel too bored. Besides that, I’m quite occupied after office hour, and by the time my kids are put to bed, I only have a little time for myself and hubby before calling it a day. Everyday passes by pretty fast!
Thus, I can foresee myself staying here for a few more years, especially if our business is growing well. I really hope that our company is making money this year, if not break even again instead of losing money! We really need to company to make a profit to ensure our visa stay in Bangkok.
On top of that, we can’t buy landed property on our names, as foreigners are only entitled to buy condominiums. Staying in condo is not my ideal kind of lifestyle, and I hope to get a house in a gated community, like the one we are staying now. Thus, we can only buy a house as company’s asset and if we are not making a profit, it’s impossible for us to own our own home here.
We went to a few housing areas the other day, and found a nice one not too far from our current area. Nonetheless, I will need the help of a Moving Company to move our stuffs, considering that we have bought so much over the year! Time really flies and it was only a year ago that we shifted here as a family, and we only brought along 12 carton boxes! LOL!
But now, we have everything we need in our home, but the only thing is, we do not own the house. I would surely hope that we can get our own house in a few years. A decent bungalow in a well gated community is truly costly!
