Local authorities visit

Next step in the process is to investigate in advance about the building proces and regulations.

As an former architect and constructional engineer I want to develop the design myself but regulations in Thailand are at some points different as in The Netherlands. 

So we went to the so-called 'Obotor'. A kind of department of the City Hall for the area we possibly want to build. 
First of all to learn more about the specific building regulations and also how to 'translate' the drawings I want to make myself into Thai.

We discovered we can get permission to build on the land. We got the basic regulations and the Obotor (Building regulation department) offered us the opportunity to 'translate' the drawings. We got all the paperwork in Thai, so happy my girlfriend is a native citizen and can speak, write and read Thai fluently ;)
