The buyers are represented in these cases by Chalermwat Wimuktayon, the founder of Magna Carta Law Office. Besides the two suits, which are based on consumer-protection law, another group of damaged persons have consulted about suing state agencies that had the duty to supervise and check on the project but allegedly made a mistake that resulted in damages to consumers, said Panthawat Pimsakul, another Magna Carta lawyer. Two state agencies have been identified as the possible guilty parties in this regard, he said, adding that this third lawsuit would be submitted to a court by December. Chalermwat and Panthawat are acting on behalf of 20 buyers who were affected because the project owner was unable to hand over or transfer to them the rights over condominium units as per the contracts they had signed. The project remains in the under-construction stage because Pattaya City halted its construction pending probes into alleged violation of the Building Control Act, after it was initially found that the project design was different from the one the authority had approved – and there was also an accusation of public-land encroachment. The Waterfront luxury condo project had passed the required environment impact assessment and received a green light from Pattaya City to commence construction in September 2008. However, local activists in 2014 raised a question over the legitimacy of its construction licence and launched a protest against the 53-storey project near Bali Hai Pier, which allegedly blocks the ocean view from the famous Phra Tamnak Hill

Just about to go and meet Soi7 for some food on soi buckhou.

Thanks Catch you later in the month.

That'll be tomorrow. Strangely unexcited....

Emirates, from Gatwick for the first time. Taxi collects me at 4pm. All organised, I think...!

2 more wakeups.

Snap. Lidl's own....none of that Robinson's stuff here!

Looking forward to Sunday lunch. Only problem, gotta cook it first, and the family are all coming round....

Same same.

Can't be bad for late October...

10 more sleeps...

Wot? No splodge of sauce smeared across the plate? The judges won't like it.... 😁

One of my milk teeth....yes, I still have 2 of them....is getting very loose. I'm wondering if the tooth fairy is on standby for adult loses? Sorry to hear about your fight with the path.

Chiropractor..... again! Bloody back...

Should be 15, but just put my back out ...

I've been called that before....!!

The port you can get to accompany it is fairly good too!

Obviously I only have 20 fingers and toes I got this wrong.... Today's the 13th. 17 days til take off. I think!

Waiting to see a chiropractor. ...

I said farewell to an old friend, yesterday. The clutch, which has been threatening to fail all summer, decided to laugh at me for wanting to do a slight hill start, fortunately outside home. Quote from garage was £270. If I didn't know that the steering pump needed replacing, the front suspension was knackered, and the brake servo so dead you needed to plan braking weeks in advance, I'd have spent it. As it was, the local breakers gave me £80. Public transport for me for the next 3 weeks.

If today's the 12th, 22 days for me.

What? Again? Didn't you do that yesterday? 😁

Wondering why the sleepy little town Im staying in has 5 police cars, two police motorbikes, and the police chopper present. ... when usually they are conspicuous by their absence...

Good Lord, he's come out of retirement! Welcome Ray

I only lasted 5 minutes before I gave up. No, not because I was too scared....
