    So according to this poster all comps yes including all the multinationals can no longer have foreign directors? You do of course realise how insane that sounds and all will be packing up.  But welcome to believe an annonymous poster of what he thought he heard or understood ????

    Spelt anonymous BTW, anonymous how? what do you want, a written introduction? Also it seems my hearing is suspect as is my understanding. Not sure exactly where I mentioned multinationals, I was told this was Companies that own land, believe what I was told or not, I couldn't care less.

    My guess would be the new rule is for dormant companies, in other words companies that were used to circumvent ownership rules.

    For active companies with land most likely no changes.

    That was asked at the Land Office, the answer was doesn't matter.

    Need to look into this as I am a 49% owner of a company that owns land.

     

    Edit .... I suppose we can still be shareholder. Just have no control under those new rule.

    As far as I know being a shareholder is still ok and breathing the precious Thai air is ok for now. Of course if you are not a director you can't get a 1 year multi entry Non O B Visa. I believe now.

         Nice to start the day with a joke.  '...the final nail in Pattaya's coffin'.  55555.  No coffin that I can see--let alone any nails in it.  Quite laughable that you think Pattaya's robust growth these past years has been because of British tourists and now that the Pound is sinking Pattaya will, too.

         In reality, the growth continues.  Several new, large condo projects have been announced to join those already under construction.  Amari's all-suites hotel addition is done and the new Ozo Hotel next door is nearing completion.  Several hotels are remodeling and adding features--such as A-01 on Beach Road.  The city itself is finally doing some infrastructure work.

         Recently I mentioned that in Wong Amat near Cape Dara an old low-rise resort on a large tract of land has been bulldozed and cleared.  Drove by yesterday and saw construction fences going up and a sign announcing 'Grande Centre Point 2.  From the photo it's a large high-rise hotel resort project.  I guess Grande Centre Point at T21 is doing so well--even though Pattaya is apparently near death--that another hotel is on the way.  If posters can tear themselves away from Soi 6 and Walking Street they'll see there's a lot positive going on.  

    Seems to go against this

    Except that's not at all the way it is. They are bound by the fact that if the result is not enacted, Britain's international reputation will be in shreds, parliament will lose all credibility, the foundations of participative democracy will be utterly undermined, and there will be rioting in the streets.

     

    'Not legally binding' is just caviling. Everyone knows a referendum is morally binding otherwise it would not be held, and the result will stand unless there are legal reasons why the vote was invalid. As there are no such reasons, the vote is as good as binding.

    As good as is not binding then is it? Your whole comment does not alter the facts and I was talking facts not what someone thinks of it !

    Wow, starting at 3.5 million baht for a 28 square meter studio shoebox with no kitchenette. Based on the websites promoting this property, it appears to be aimed at the Russian market.

    So it is a time share on the 'Beach' at the <deleted>tiest part of Chalong, right next to the power boats and their noise, smell of fuel every day, have a walk on the beach from my shoebox in a metre of <deleted>ty mud. No thanks

    Its Safer than London or the USA.  Whats your point?

    The point is it isn't safer, some 1,700 road deaths per year as opposed to 20,000 and that is died at the scene <deleted>.

    We were burgled 3 times in 10 years even though we had 2 dogs, security cameras and metal window guards, wife was assaulted twice walking from the shops, police response ? Thailand not good for lady walking alone !

    Most crime in Thailand is not even reported due to total lack of interest from the Bib unless something in it for them.

    So safer, exactly how?

    yes … totally agree, these guys see the AUD & GBP fall 10-20% and all of a sudden it's posts about going back home.

    Well sorry but a house only costs 500k-1 mil to build in Thailand, in Australia and I expect the UK you are lucky to get a garden shed for that,  a taxi can take you 20kms for $10.... food at the markets is still way cheaper than Australia. Oh and the government will tax you as much as they can, and you will need  a licence to fart … well in Auss you just about do.

    No thank's …. they can have both those miserable shitholes... lol 

     

     

    \if you want to live in the sticks it might, try Phuket lol.
