If they did they could have every house in my soi, almost,

Really? How did the land department accept that? I shouldn't ask, we own one condo and from what the office tells me it is well below the 49% as a friend of mine wanted to buy one, Nothing surprises me here,

Check her bank accounts would be a good idea

What? you are locked up at the moment for overstaying?

It had me thinking the drivers on Bolt are owner/drivers not renting from the mafia, I had some family here for a couple of weeks and judging by some of the cars I saw, one a Fortuna and MG SUV

I wonder how many farang down here in Phuket think they have a 90 year lease? some years ago that was being touted around 30+30+30 total 90 year lease I actually met a guy who was buying a house and that was what he was told, I told him I think you need to speak to another lawyer,

We dont know the reason why they were raided, they are not alone every company on the island is at it and it has been going on for at 25 years that I know of, when I was first explained to me how it was done,

That rule only applies to condo projects, upto 49% foreign quota

Good question

Makes me laugh when you see in another post, they dont want overstaying farang damaging the image of Thailand, Thai's are doing good job themselves without any help from us,

She wasn't messing about there

More than 15 years that I know of

Who will own the land?

We all know what goes on its not big secret, so now what they going to do about it? start arresting the Farang? Dont pi$$ the Farang off to much this news will travel fast especially around the Russian community,

Dogs are not always the answer I've known a couple of dogs get Poisoned so much for having a guard dog

They don't have the facilities to lock them all up,

Would be good if other hotel and resort owners came forward with a similar story,

Must have been doing some business to have 40 staff,

I reckon they could raid every Law office on the island and find plenty of dodge deals

Foreign Quota

Few years back where i Live it was rife lots of stand alone villas down the dark soi's not just Farang owned houses, I did get told the local poo yai baan's got together this has to stop, I haven't heard of any houses getting broken into for a while, The best thing to do when you look at your house think like a thief where are the weak spots that a thief would go for, we had empty land around us for years so obviously the back would be a point of entry, so I put wrought iron on the windows the back door and the upstairs windows, if you want to break in my house they would have to make a lot of noise, We have a roller shutters on the front any thief would look at my house and give it a miss find an easier job, They have improved the street lighting over the years and I leave 2 flouresant lights on the front driveway I dont have a dog or cameras,

Indians are racist in India,

They do that in England send them home to die they can get home help from the social services,

If you think Thailand hospitals are bad you should try the ones in India,

Cant be many overstayers left now,
