You better ask the internetprovider 3BB what they can do in your village. They have lately installed new cables all over Buriram and many other places in Isaan. It might be those cables you have seen.
They have their office in Buriram next to TT&T on InJantraNarong Road (off Thani Road) and they also have a selling point in BigC.

Thanks for that. It's a great start. I will go into Big C first and try my luck  then I will post here what I find out.

Are you SURE its a cable TV wire, as, although I do not live in Buriram, I have heard nothing about it on the local forum.
I live 8k out of Surin and have adsl 6meg but thats very rare in most places outside of town.

I'm not sure of anything anymore!

It appears to be round coax cable. While they were installing the line it barely cleared my drive and car as I passed under it so I could see close up what it appeared to be.
It is definitely a utility (not power) line. I am not familiar what tele wires are in thai... but in the states I have experience in that sort of thing ... well, enough to know that they are flat.
Can a person get internet from cable here or any other reasonable means.
Sound like you are pretty lucky with your service.

1. Transfer Fee - 2%, Stamp Duty - 0.5%, Business Tax - 3.3 % if selling within 5 years, Withholding (Income) Tax - Depends on value, length of time owned and how calculated by land office.
2. Mortgage has to be cleared before transaction can take place.
3. Seller and buyer along with lawyers/banker and big bag of cash go to the land office, everybody signs at land office, money changes hands, chanote is endorsed over to new owner - done deal. Can be accomplished in a day if all documents are ready to be signed.
4. If transferring a foreign owned unit, buyer needs a Foreign Currency Transaction Form from their Thai bank.

Great! Are there ready forms available or can we at least start the deal ourselves? Can we ask for down payment? %? Does the bank assist in this or are there other standard procedures that we need to start with?
Help much noted!!!
