Community Residents Rights?

[caller]

Just apply to the committee for a 100k loan from residents funds to help pay for legal fees. Worked for one committee member

140k! And to think it was only discovered because of an anon letter sent to all members, with pictures of the cheques and stubs.

Yes caller, do we know who this was? Obviously no names to be mentioned on here, but as you are on the battle field so to speak, maybe he could become our general?

For the benefit of Green Nomad and others that may be affected by the actions of the rogue committee in this development. It beggars belief.

1. There were 24 x 30 year long term lessess affected by being banned from participating at this sham AGM. The justification for this was given in a JP Thai only letter.

Various claims were made. The main one being that the developer hadn't signed the proxy forms. Well, clearly the meeting should have been postponed until the forms had been signed so they could attend. No-one was given advance notice of this and were turned away on the door. The reality is that the meeting was full of the committees supporters, minus this 24, they could do what they wanted. That's 2 AGM's where they have contro=ived attendances. There was only 15 attendees at the earlier one.

2. The co-owner group board of directors have changed the AGM quorum size from 1/3 of member votes to just 1/4 to accommodate the reduced and manipulated number of residents that can be involved

3. The meeting done without Thai to English translator support, so most farangs were left completely in the dark, just like a mushroom

They were voted out by their supporters


4. If any long term lessee that has been affected by all this manipulation, discrimination and removal of rights wants to take legal action, please do so and have a case filed with the courts within 30 days of this sham AGM to avoid getting impacted by supreme court ruling 3209/2559. Otherwise you will effectively shoot yourself in the foot

I think it's 30 days from the date of issue of the minutes. But stand to be corrected. But how a meeting is convened is covered by a different law and this meeting was not organised in accordance with the by-laws.

5 After this shambolic AGM was over the board of directors (that also includes two farangs, don't mention the war ) then celebrated with garden parties and loads of hooting and whaling. Now how sick and sad is all of that for a group that under the bylaws is supposed to be there to support all residents.

Thanks for the info Steve, really want to piss on their party, but don't know what can be done without any of us putting in a lot of dosh to some possibly dodgy lawyer,,,,TIT as you said. GN

There is a very good and honest English speaking lawyer who knows all about this case, but not yet instructed, confident of taking this case forward and not as expensive as you think. Especially if a few get together to share the cost. Will pm you a bit later.

I honestly and truthfully do not know. A lot of red herrings were given out as like others, I was wondering who it was. But I wouldn't be surprised if there was more,

We need to be very careful on this thread not to fall afoul of Thailand's defamation laws that are designed to protect wrongdoers. No need to cry censorship, we do not make these laws.

From the T&Cs:

What is permitted will be so at our sole discretion, this forum is not a platform for property disputes.

As long as the development or individuals are not named can this thread continue? It also serves as a warning to home owners in other developments should there be similar circumstances.

To be honest, I think this thread has served its purpose in respect of the OP's original question.

From past experience involving a similar theme, it took over 10 years to sort out, with appeals after appeals and transfer to a higher court. It may be quicker in a provincial court, as this was in Bangkok, but just be aware.
