PATTAYA:--More than 13 percent of Baan Sukhawadee, the ostentatious mansion and tourist attraction, was ordered demolished after Pattaya officials found that buildings, gardens and fences encroached on public land.

 

Deputy Mayor Vichien Pongpanit led officials from Banglamung District and the Chonburi Land Department to the ornate Sukhumvit Road estate Jan. 22 following renewed complaints from neighbors that owner Panya Chotitawan, head of giant poultry exporter Saha Farms Co., illegally built structures on land reclaimed from the sea.

 

Ocean-reclaimed landfill is considered public land in Thailand. Panya could not be reached for comment.

 

In all, 11 of Sukhawadee House’s 80 rai of land were deemed to be public land, although measurements are underway to determine the exact encroachment. The land includes gardens and salas and was encircled by a fence.

 

Management of the tourist attraction was also accused of sealing off a public road and running tourist shuttle buses on a waterfront pedestrian path, heavily damaging the public walkway.

 

Officials confirmed that a 150-meter-long road linking the estate to Soi Banglamung had been sealed off with a fence and several structures. The street was designated a public road in 1987.
