With its warm, tropical climate, exotic landscapes, warm crystal blue seas, golden sandy beaches, welcoming people, delicious cuisine, array of entertainment options and affordable prices, it's easy to fall in love with Thailand. So it's hardly surprising that Thailand has become one of the world's most popular tourist destinations, attracting 20 million tourists from all over the world every year. And most popular resort city of all is ... Pattaya - Where the World Comes to Relax and Play For most of these visitors, one trip to Pattaya is just not enough - many dream of either relocating to the city permanently or buying a second home here to escape from the winter blues. Until recently, purchasing freehold real estate in Thailand was impossible and the only alternatives - either buying leasehold or owning as a minority shareholder in a Thai company - was a major turn off. But following the passing of the Condominium Act in 2008, it's now possible for anyone to buy a condominium in Thailand - and it's theirs for keeps. Currently condominiums in Pattaya start from just 15,000/$25,000. But prices aren't going to stay this affordable for much longer - they're starting to rise fast. So the right time to buy is right now. In this book, overseas property expert, Nick Pendrell, provides a complete buyer's guide for anyone interested in buying property in Pattaya. It will take you through the buying process from start to finish in order to ensure that you select the perfect property which meets all your needs for the best possible price, avoiding any potential pitfalls in the process.
Download or read book Border Landscapes written by Janet C. Sturgeon and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2012-06-27 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comparative, interdisciplinary study based on extensive fieldwork as well as historical sources, Janet Sturgeon examines the different trajectories of landscape change and land use among communities who call themselves Akha (known as Hani in China) in contrasting political contexts. She shows how, over the last century, processes of state formation, construction of ethnic identity, and regional security concerns have contributed to very different outcomes for Akha and their forests in China and Thailand, with Chinese Akha functioning as citizens and grain producers, and Akha in Thailand being viewed as "non-Thai" forest destroyers. The modern nation-state grapples with local power hierarchies on the periphery of the nation, with varied outcomes. Citizenship in China helps Akha better protect a fluid set of livelihood practices that confer benefits on them and their landscape. Denied such citizenship in Thailand, Akha are helpless when forests and other resources are ruthlessly claimed by the state. Drawing on current anthropological debates on the state in Southeast Asia and more generally on debates on property theory, states and minorities, and political ecology, Sturgeon shows how people live in a continuous state of negotiated boundaries - political, social, and ecological. This pioneering comparison of resource access and land use among historically related peoples in two nation-states will be welcomed by scholars of political ecology, environmental anthropology, ethnicity, and politics of state formation in East and Southeast Asia.

Download or read book Land and Loyalty written by Tomas Larsson and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-15 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic and international development strategies often focus on private ownership as a crucial anchor for long-term investment; the security of property rights provides a foundation for capitalist expansion. In recent years, Thailand's policies have been hailed as a prime example of how granting formal land rights to poor farmers in low-income countries can result in economic benefits. But the country provides a puzzle: Thailand faced major security threats from colonial powers in the nineteenth century and from communism in the twentieth century, yet only in the latter case did the government respond with pro-development tactics. In Land and Loyalty, Tomas Larsson argues that institutional underdevelopment may prove, under certain circumstances, a strategic advantage rather than a weakness and that external threats play an important role in shaping the development of property regimes. Security concerns, he find, often guide economic policy. The domestic legacies, legal and socioeconomic, resulting from state responses to the outside world shape and limit the strategies available to politicians. While Larsson’s extensive archival research findings are drawn from Thai sources, he situates the experiences of Thailand in comparative perspective by contrasting them with the trajectory of property rights in Japan, Burma, and the Philippines.

Download or read book Rental Housing written by Ira Gary Peppercorn and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discussion of where people live and how people pay for their housing has undergone a significant shift. Until the mortgage crisis erupted in 2008, the housing policy of most nations focused on increasing home ownership. There had been very little discussion about rental housing, less about social housing, and virtually none about public housing. The mortgage crisis showed the challenges inherent in pushing for home ownership for all. With homes going into foreclosure and with credit tightening in many countries, the need for rental housing increased dramatically. However, most countries are only beginning to consider supporting rental housing as a shelter option. This book is an effort to bring rental housing to the forefront of the housing agenda and to provide general guidance to policy makers. The information it provides can assist key players in housing markets--government officials, private rental property owners, financiers, and nongovernmental organizations--in including rental housing as a critical housing option and in having an informed discussion on how best to stimulate this sector.
