I'm a fairly new expatriate in Samui. I'm back here this November and I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is a need for farang building supervisors. Are these positions generally held by Thais? Are there any high end western style timber frame homes being built on the island that need some western building experience? I'm only 50 and I don't want to just sit on the beach every day and I enjoy the work I do. My grasp of the Thai language is slowly coming around. I've seen some nice interior finish work in some of the hotels on the island and would love to know more about the construction trade in Thailand and on Samui in particular and how farangs fit in besides owning the companys involved. I realize that we're not allowed to strap a belt on and start hammering nails. Thanks in advance for any input
