As said BIL is the number 2 public servant in the district Orbitor office, they and all the village heads etc were told in no uncertain terms, get caught witnessing crown land transfers you will go to prison,land office only now, When the charnotes were issued along the 2248 [my factory] disputed title, no charnote issued.
From what I heard 10 year rule was applied, but anything under the 10 years, claimants lost the land and had to apply to the the land office appeals court if they wanted to claim.

The whole country is to be put on a western type land register, World bank thing, if your paper isn't legal balls in your court to prove otherwise.

As said I may have some dodgy land, possession type, but may come under a different government department, will see in years to come, charnote people are a long way off.

As stated in my post #17, maybe my village is a one off cos quite a bit of land appears to be up for sale if some one comes up with the cash, I have never heard of any legal repercussions (Thai /Thai sales) arising since I have lived here in this area since April 2004 and since then have seen quite a lot of small parcels of land changing hands with apparently no snags to either the buyer or the seller.

Yes, quite visible these Military people these days...no smiles that I can detect.

Nobodies planting rice nearby, but further afield many are...they of course have a unending water supply.

Next crop to be harvested is soy beans and corn.

No rain since Jan 8, 2015...none expected either.

Farming in our area goes on as usual(central plains).

I believe your above statement might apply throughout the country, as business has progressed normally for quite a few years now - especially where land prices have skyrocketed. No surface problems or restrictions.

Yeah, as stated in my post #15 , Jan my wife said the land was worth at least 400,000, but the "big hitter" could not wait to get his hands on the dough ,so him and his mates could blow it ,I forgot to add the Honda CBR he bought was rapped up and was a write off before the New Year .

Land in our area is going for one million for one rai, they are building new shop houses everywhere four million baht up, when I came here in 2006 there was one 7-11 now five and a small Tesco Lotus

Nothing happens until someone checks, bit like stealing, nothing happens until you get caught.
Who's witnessing the sales and what happens when the land survey people come, I'm happy to sell 100,000 rai of jungle, cheap any buyers.

But no one does check nor makes waves, Jim - for decades and decades.

You know how that works here. Just because certain mandates are on the books doesn't mean that such are adhered to.
