chainarong Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 One wonders what documentation this top cop has , if they had records in their computer, paper files, they wouldn't be out there questioning, as for issuing a complaint well that's just kids stuff, just play the game pal like everybody else, come down a level or too, you are not that important as you think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WonnabeBiker Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Well, I'd look for a) FMV fair market value and proof of actual payment with subesequent spending of the monies by the seller. Not just a one-off transaction and a cash withdrawal an hour later of the full amount. What makes this a lucratyive deal? How much is such a higher ranked cop earning? Just wondering.

Yeah, and did some of the top military brass submit a case to avoid to check their assets and make them public? Corruption is so endemic that I cannot see an end of it in the short-medium term... Oh and RTP is a real farce...Lots of examples in last weeks, if we really needed any. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone just issued an illegal chanote 30 years ago.....what is than? Is it chanote or is it invalid? Specially when the land was already sold several times and the last buyer could not know that the document was wrongly issued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvr181 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 At least the legitimacy of his ownership has to be proven and that is a start, regardless of the outcome! A small glimmer of hope for the country perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sviss Geez Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 must be on one great salary... Why? He claims to have "continuously used the land" which suggests that the land had been abandoned by it's owner which in Thailand is a perfectly legitimate method of aquiring ownership after a number of years, without having to buy the land. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he could be mistaken in thinking he has. The head of the Hat Chao Mai national park certainly seems to believe this is the case.

poweratradio Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Is this a form of homesteading Thai style? Drill a water well and the land is considered developed and taxable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that easy here...if you have continuously been using a piece of land for over 10 years and no-one has told you to get off that piece of land, you can claim that piece of land as your land. Better if you fence it off for that 10 years... In Cambodia you can fence a piece of land and if no-one else claims that land in only 2 years... that land is yours..

I get the idea the land is part of the National Park. He is suggesting that he has been using the land for some time, therefore it's his right to keep it. This is a similar situation to the National Park near Korat a couple of years ago, where people built resorts. They were told to pull the buildings down.

billd766 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 must be on one great salary... Yep, same as the Army ones, how do they do it? Same as politicians especially the PTP. Or even Tarit the ex DSI chief who didn't seem to know about the building on forestry land even though the access road, water and electricity went through his land? How do they get to be so rich?
