docshock13 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Would be interesting to know which (as yet unnamed) fat cat is behind Laem Nga Development Co Ltd. and why they felt the need or desire to close the public road not only in the first instance but again after the initial "talks." Unless of course the company was sold land with a dodgy deed. Which begs the question, "Why didn't they have their legal team conduct due diligence?" A quick trip to the local land dept. would have sorted things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quick trip to the local land dept. would have sorted things. Not necessarily. The pervasive nature of these land scams is often that the staff at the Lands Title Office and various official record keepers are paid off to totally 'rebirth' the land so that even the local government records are false. The problem as far as I can see is that when the truth be determined re ownership of a piece of land , those bureaucrats who did the falsifying of the title deeds and plans are not jailed . Its ridiculous. Its not just the 'buyer' who can lose everything. Land is the economies most obvious collateral , and if that collaterals pedigree is totally false , then that leaves the economy. on very shaky ground.

HerbalEd Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Looks like the company's selfish action has come back to haunt them. Karma at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
