There was an ‘investigative’ TV show last night on TPBS at 21:10 regarding false land title deeds and encroachment and God knows what else. Unfortunately, I missed it. Does anyone know if this show was a result of Khun Satit’s visit to the island?
Also could anyone please comment on what the gist of the show was about?
From what I gather it was about 8 local government officials who are accused of taking kickbacks in return for illegally issuing title deeds. So even if you have land with a Chanote, if it wasn’t originally obtained in the correct manner you could lose it. ( As has happened on Samui.)
Thanks Ian. I saw a replay of the program and it seemed to focus on property near Salak Phet and also the Navy situation on the east side.
If the Klong Son area was mentioned I didn’t hear it. Did the program
imply the only disputed areas were Salak Phet and the Navy claims? No others?
I heard a ‘part 2′ of the report will be on this Monday at the same time. Maybe it will cover all the brouhahas on the west coast?
Or maybe not…
