Each villa worth 3.5 million ? ???? 

well, it's a hotel, so the "villas" probably aren't very large.

When you are mass building like that those villas were probably built for less then a million . 

seeing the photos, yes, you are right

 

they also look as if the roof was made of leaves or straw or something similar atop of corrugated material.

The farmers burn the sugar cane every year.

Some rich folk building a resort nearby ain't gonna stop 'em.

 

Maybe 'thatch' isn't the right roofing material to use here.

Thais are driving drunk all year long. If you have an accident with a drunk driver, it´s your fault?

They are not supposed to burn their fields. Not just because of fire hazards, but due to pollution. They need to be sued for all they are worth, particularly if they are part of the big business sugar conglomerates.

Easier to modify your behaviour, than to try and modify the locals behaviour IMHO.

Just another example of bloody ignorant farmers, who dont give a s++t about neighbours.

Unless it was a naturally caused fire. 

 

The article in the link stated that the land was abandoned, not cultivated, and didn't say that it was deliberate or caused by farmers burning their fields.  It did say that forensic police were investigating the cause in view of the previous similar fire which doesn't suggest "bloody ignorant farmers who don't give a s++t about neighbours", to use your words.

The Sanook link in the OP says that the land is abandoned, not cultivated. 

 

Including the link in the OP isn't going to stop some folk from reading it, though.

You must be in need of new glasses, it clearly states in the OP the fire came from burning fields.

Instead of trying to make me look stupid, as you do in many threads, you need to read slowly/ and correctly.

Or should we excuse you on the fact English is not your forst language?

The land behind our home was not cultivated, yet it did not stop the ignorant owner from setting it alight, and almost cost many people here their homes.

I know that it said the fields were burning, it didn't say how they came to be burning, that is what is being investigated.  The land is abandoned.  I'm not trying to make anyone look stupid, I'm just making a rational observation based on reading the OP and the link.

 

"Or should we excuse you on the fact English is not your forst language?"

English definitely is not my "forst language" [sic]!

The Hua Hin land in question is abandoned land which suggests it may not have an identifiable owner!
