Thai social media was abuzz after a woman went online to sell her private island for 350 million baht.

 

She said that she was selling Koh Wai (in the Koh Chang area in eastern Thailand) - it was 298 rai with clear water, soft sands, and lovely coral. 

 

And only 45 minutes by speedboat from Trat pier.

It included 70 bungalows of the Koh Wai Paradise - a three star hotel.

 

However Sanook reported that the National Park chief responsible for the area had indicated that the woman only has a "chanote" (land title deed) for 21 rai of the island. 

 

He indicated that it looks like an illegal proposition.

You can buy Koh Som (Orange Island) for just 130 million baht, it's a one square kilometer big island, almost 42 rai, and as it's only 700 meter shore to shore from Koh Samui, so you might even be able to stay healthy, and swim over to your new paradise property...????

Hi Ronald,  thanks for that reminder but following your earlier mail I did send you a copy of my passport, national insurance number, full bank details , copy of birth certificate and  my release certificate from the psychiatric hospital yet the billion dollars has still not arrived.  However I have noticed that my previous balance of a little over £ 1250 pounds is now zero. Do you think there is a mistake somewhere and you withdrew monies rather then deposit them ? I was such looking forward to receiving these funds I have already put in an offer to purchase a Lordship as I would then perhaps be adequately titled to seek the hand, or hands of one or two of your beautiful daughters. Well to be truthful not exactly hands I was wanting but I'm sure you understand. Anyway I remain  your loyal follower.

p.s, those previous pictures you kindly sent me of your 3 daughters , may I ask if the 7 naked men they appeared to be having some jolly good fun with were attached to them or just passing ?

3.5 million Euro for that is a steal, if ou compare that to what 3.5 million would buy you in Bangkok, New York, Beverly Hills, Munich, Paris or any other major city in the west!

Wai not: Thai net dreams of buying island paradise shattered by scam reality | Coconuts Bangkok

 

 Lady is in some serious trouble and the main resort is set to sue.

 

While Minky never said explicitly that Koh Waii Paradise Resort belonged to her family, the implication was clear to many. Now the resort has responded by doing what every marginally embarrassed organization does – threaten to sue, according to park officials.

“Lastly, the information on Facebook for the land sale is totally not true,” the resort said in a statement signaling its intent to take unspecified legal action.

And with that, a brief but bright dream faded. The original post was deleted, and Minky Arisara has apologized for her “mistake.” She insists her family does own property there, but now says it only consists of farmland.

“I apologize for my unintentional misinformation. I didn’t expect such huge interest and the enormous sharing of the announcement,” she wrote.

So she was asking 350 million for some farmland? That's a heck of a mistake.

I wasn’t taking about the Island that she partly owns. I was talking about the one someone mentioned in a comment for 130 million Baht (3.5 million Euro) near Samui, the one that is 1 square kilometer.
