''.......Samui´s reputation as a luxury destination has been cemented'' lol

''As the economic crises continues to deepen the gap between expectations on price are becoming more evident, though property values are holding due to limited leveraging by investors.''

- so, property is worth more than people are willing to pay???

- often repeated fallacy, no incountry leverage = no leverage
