Reasons Chinese Buying Realestate?
I had Chinese buyers interested in my house when I was selling a few years ago. But getting money out of China was almost impossible. I had contacts in Dubai and Hong Kong. Even for them, it was an extremely dodgy affair and neither would touch it.

Finnish Man Arrested for 10-Year Overstay in Thailand
