Eller att leasa land.Det är kanske bäst om de förbjuder oss faranger att överhuvudtaget vara delägare i företag och jobba i landet. Då går jag i pension.

Ett mera effektivt sätt vore att förbjuda korruption. Så länge som korruptionen är så utbredd i landet spelar det nog mindre roll vad de gör.Det är kanske bäst om de förbjuder oss faranger att överhuvudtaget vara delägare i företag och jobba i landet. Då går jag i pension.
Fast eftersom att få bukt på korruptionen är i princip omöjlig i Thailand så kommer det att fortsätta i princip som vanligt.
Tro inte att du ska få ta pension så lätt genom att skylla ifrån dig på thai myndigheterna.

Jag gissar/tror/hoppas inte de som gör det enligt lagen (Section 540 — Civil and Commercial Code) kommer få problem.
De som man nu verkar fokusera på är företag som leasar mark med hus som man sedan hyr ut (eller rentav försöker ”sälja”) till andra utlänningar.
Men vi får väl se…

An Israeli property developer and his wife were arrested following an investigation into 20 Israeli nationals who allegedly used Thai nominees to conceal their ownership of land, property and restricted businesses on Koh Samui.
The Samui Provincial Court reportedly issued 20 arrest warrants for Israeli nationals after investigators found that Thai people were named as shareholders to conceal foreign ownership and allow businesses restricted under Thai law to operate.
Israeli nationals were reportedly the largest group of foreigners targeted in the operation, according to a report by Phuket Hotnews.
Police from Bo Phut Police Station and Surat Thani Immigration arrested 45 year old Israeli property developer Gal Bieber and his wife, Roni Bieber, who were described as key suspects in the investigation.

Investigators reportedly found that Bieber’s network used a corporate structure involving Thai nationals as shareholders. The companies were allegedly used to acquire, develop and rent luxury properties on Koh Samui, with many of the properties targeting Israeli customers.
The investigation also alleges that the network operated businesses without the required permissions, including an international school and luxury pool villas.
Police are continuing to investigate the group’s financial transactions and other people allegedly involved in the network. Officials are also working to seize and freeze assets connected to the investigation.
Roni denied the accusations in an interview with The Jerusalem Post, saying that she and her husband operated their businesses based on guidance from local professionals.
She said the couple intended to comply with Thai laws and requirements and maintained that all shareholders, including Thai nationals, participated in the business activities.
Roni also accused a Thai lawyer and accountant of leading her and her husband into legal difficulties.
“We respect Thai law and the authorities. All our actions were accompanied by a Thai lawyer and accountant who told us how to do everything and accompanied us when the companies were opened, and the businesses were established.
“We placed our full trust in them and did as they instructed, but when the law changed, they disappeared and took no responsibility, and because they are Thai, they are free from law enforcement,” Roni said.
The Jerusalem Post reported that Gal and Roni were released on bail while the investigation into the alleged nominee scheme continues.

The Ministry of Justice assigned the DSI, which handles complex special cases with broad impact, to intensify and expand its ongoing investigations into the use of nominees across multiple areas, including Pattaya. The probe has now been formalized as Special Case No. 135/2569, involving alleged evasion or violation of the Foreign Business Act through the registration of Thai nationals as shareholders on behalf of foreign beneficial owners.
Officers searched three target premises and seized preliminary evidence, including numerous company registration documents that may constitute offenses under the Act. The materials are primarily linked to multiple juristic persons with combined assets valued at hundreds of millions of baht, although the exact names of the companies and condos were not released by the DSI at this time. The nationalities and names of the suspected foreigners involved were also not released.
The primary objective of the operation was to gather evidence related to the alleged offenses, particularly business-related documents and electronic communications data. Authorities seized or froze electronic devices and computer systems believed to be connected to the activities in order to preserve evidence for forensic examination. Investigators hope to use the materials to establish relationships, coordination, and patterns of conduct among individuals or groups involved, and to expand the inquiry to all relevant parties.
Officials stated that the investigation will proceed strictly according to the evidence and the law, ensuring fairness throughout the process.

Nu pratas det om att man börjat ”mass-kolla” icke-thai som äger condos/bostadsrätter.
Det är lagligt att som icke-thai äga en condo under vissa förutsättningar. En av de viktigaste av dessa är att maximalt 49% av den totala golvytan i bostadshuset får ägas av icke-thai. Minst 51% av golvytan måste alltså vara thai-ägd.
Många byggare och mäklare har nog myglat med detta.
