Storms

[iammike]

Today is one of those days that I like living in the village, as you see people helping when someone is in need.

We gave our Neighbors the money to buy new Sheet Metal and other building material (just to cover the roof so when it rains they are dry) and about 5-6 people showed up and have are already started fixing the roof !! (Payment for them, a couple of bottles of Lao Khao / Leo and some Roasted pork !)

As the rainy season is approaching that temp solution has to stay up for at least 6-8 months !

That was a nice thing to do. Well done Mike.

Thx Freddy, they are good people and with this happening it was a NON issue that we would pay for these repairs !

They were the hardest hit in the whole village, other houses also sustained damage but not as extensive as their house !

[DeputyDavid]

Yes well done!

Update:

Just to inform you guys, the government just paid out the damage after the storm hit our (ex)village.

The Storm was on 17th April and the payment came through on 24th May. So well over a month.

Not really very long with the need to assess the damage and calculate repair costs.

Not many governments would pay for storm damage...a tsunami or earthquake maybe. Time the villagers took responsibility for themselves and took out some insurance. Not that expensive..just the equivalent of a few bottles of Lao Khao

I need to look into a homeowner policy. Self insured may not be the way to go. Anyone have a reputable referral?  I think I want a company that has an office or at least a claims adjuster In muang Buriram.

55555 insurance

We know it's a good thing, but they are living one day at a time.

And you think the payment was enough for the repair, all I can say is, for some it covered less then 50% of the damage done. So again they have to find ways to pay off the debts to pay for all of this.

Vicious circle !

Absolutely Offtopic. Not an office in Buriram, but Contact Aainsurance in Pattaya. Claims are all done by email. We have several insurances with them, and never ever had a problem or a claim dispute

Ps: They are a broker

PsPs: Ask your question about a claims adjuster to them, they will know which of the companies they deal with have such an office in Buriram
