I've wondered about that for a long time. The courts issue orders and the owners of the buildings don't do anything. I know Thailand has some serious contempt of court law -- that's why newspapers almost never report on a case that is before the courts. I don't understand why private property owners can simply ignore the orders of the court. There was a department store in Bangkok that illegally modified its structure from the approved plans to add four stories. The BMA took them to court many times over a period of about twenty years and every time the court found the owner at fault and ordered him to remove the top four stories. He never did anything, was never fined, never charged with anything other than improperly modifying the building. Finally the damned thing collapsed, I think with loss of life. Still don't know if the owner has any liability (or the architect or operating engineer).

I met a chap once , who supplies steel for Thai building contracts.

He told me that he always supplies stronger steel than requested, knowing Thai developer's propensity to add a few floors to the original proposed design..

I wonder what the current situation is on the hotel on South Pattaya Road that was ordered (frequently) to remove some floors because of illegal building.

On second thoughts, I think I know...

this one?

OK, but my quote was 25/6/16, and things are now happening since the previous administration down at City Hall have been replaced...

FYI, Mr. Itthipol Khunpleom, ex mayor did sign the demolition order for Balihai plaza and Balihai bay hotel  since April. The order was published and posted to the hotel and the plaza since then. Pattaya City gave the owner 60 days period for demolition by themselves. After that in June, Pattaya City started to demolition. By the way the owner have to pay the bill for more than 1 million baht. This proved that the process was started before the current city council.

 

Referred to the boutique hotel case, the building which was adjusted without permission. Local media reported that two executive staffs in Building control division at Pattaya City were received a disciplinary punishment. Finally they were expelled. 

 

There are many complains in Building control division.

Who wants to bet in a year it's still there?

These type of orders are only issued to increase the tea-money or to obtain the land to give to another favored developer.

Sorry,  gambling is illegal in Thailand.
