"Public Procurement & Supplies Admin Act 2017 provides ample #legal authority for govt to downgrade & punish #contractors who violate contracts.. Comptroller-General Pat M. told TV news no state agency in Rama II accident submitted a request to CG's Dept to #blacklist any contractor.. What 🇹🇭 lacks is not legislation, but will to enforce.. What's needed now is leadership tt cares enuf to make an #independent national #safety committee a reality"🧐

All the quotes we've gotten from reputable #contractors to replace our roof have seemed unreasonably high, but then I look at my sister-in-laws house where whomever added the dormer put the siding over the shingles and didn't stop water from running straight into the plumbing stack (and then leaking down to the basement). I guess you pay either way.
Good morning. 🦆🪿🦢
11 December 2025
I’m having a portion of my driveway redone. They started yesterday and are supposed to pour this morning. I’m a little on edge—I hired the company through Angi. So far, their work is adequate, but I can’t help feeling that this kind of decision-making is part of what makes me, me.
I did my research into concrete—it’s not all the same, you know. The contractor initially proposed pouring 3,000 psi concrete, which is the minimum standard. No doubt he was trying to keep costs low to secure the job. I simply told him to go with 4,000 psi, which is the recommended strength for driveways, and that I’d cover the extra cost.
What frustrates me with contractors is that they often default to the lowest option to win the bid, rarely presenting alternatives. It’s as if they assume all the customer cares about is cost. And yes, cost matters—but so does quality. I understand that cost and quality can be in tension, but I’d rather be given the full picture and make the decision myself. Wouldn’t you?
The contractor got back to me and said the difference between 3,000 psi and 4,000 psi concrete is only $10 per cubic yard. He estimated the job at 12 yards, so the upgrade adds just $120. I paced it off yesterday and suspect it’s closer to 15 cubic yards. We’ll see. I agreed to pay the actual cost of the concrete rather than the estimate baked into his price. Life goes on.

In comedy of errors, men accused of wiping gov databases turned to an AI tool https://arstechni.ca/Rpne #contractors #datatheft #Biz&IT #courts #AI
…Since it began operations in May, #GHF was beset by controversy over its opaque origins & funding sources & reliance on #armed private #contractors to secure its #aid hubs.
The #UN & most major aid groups, which had been providing most of the aid before the war & in its early stages, refused to work with GHF, accusing it of “weaponising” aid to force the #displacement of #Palestinians to southern #Gaza, a goal previously outlined by #FarRight #Israel leaders.
