And to get one you need to comply with certain regulations such as having fire extinguishers and pool safety features (depth signs etc.) It's also very expensive that's why these Dodgy agents don't bother. I see foreigners acting as these unlawful agents, I'd like to see these guys deported. Bloody disrespectful lowlifes. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the article is saying. You'll find the pool villa above was booked through Airbnb. Airbnb websites happily operate in Thailand renting these pool villas illegally.
