Was told that even Sinkies who hve been living there more than 5yrs also act and tink, as those natives.Native Indons are like dormant volcanoes and are violent in nature. They just need the perfect storm to unleash the beast within them and will go about on a head-chopping rampage once the spark is ignited.
Bang-cock?Serve them right for investing in indon properties. Oppies are better off investing in Singapore property.
Bangcock prime area is stable, gradual appreciation over the yearsBang-cock?
Not a coincidence that the English word "amok" as in "to run amok" (sometimes spelled amok, amuck) is a loan word from Malay.Native Indons are like dormant volcanoes and are violent in nature.

The apartments there are maintained quite regularly. Still it depends on the neighborhood. If your neighborhood is the atas ones, then no issues with maintenance and security. If you're lucky, your next door female neighbour is probably a friendly Soi Cowboy whore renting a unit besides you.Bang-cock?
Perhaps its better for foreigners to rent instead of buying. In other countries. Foreigners are always treated worst than locals. Not all countries are like singkieland.

It's quite cheap to buy a posh condo unit in Thailand, Malaysia. I believe foreigners buying properties there are much more protected than in Indonesia. But then again in Thailand, you can only buy condos. To buy a land, you need to register it under the name of your Thai wife which is always a big risk lest she cheated on you and sell off the land and the landed property that you bought for her. I have seen few Farangs in Udon Thani domestic airport in long daze while waiting for their flights. Apparently their Thai wives sold off the lands, the houses and ran away with the sales proceeds when their foreign hubbies went back home to their native countries. LOL.Perhaps its better for foreigners to rent instead of buying. In other countries. Foreigners are always treated worst than locals. Not all countries are like singkieland.

I not sure if this works in Thailand. But got ang mors told me..the land title deed is held directly by them. Put in safe deposit box etc. So without the deed...the wife cannot sell it etc..but these 3rd world countries... anything can happen...even getting bummed off by the wife n her loverIt's quite cheap to buy a posh condo unit in Thailand, Malaysia.
