Oh! Luang Phrabang’s land would be very expensive! You could only rent land in Laos, at high prices too! Foreigners are not allowed to own land in Laos and Thailand. But you could own condo units in Thailand easily!
Land in Nongkhai is getting more expensive but the adverse economic condition has left many sellers high and dry! There are many signs saying ‘land for sale’ in Nongkhai, but there are no buyers! It’s that bad!
I think Nongkhai is too far away from home for you!?! Are you thinking about yourself or for your family as a whole?! Why do you want to come living in Thailand?! Most people are by the seaside or in Chiengmai!
Cheers.
Thanks for the reminder! Yeah, I know foreigners are not allowed to own lands in many countries. I am just comparing prices all around ASEAN. Anyway, it is too politically unstable for foreigners to move to Thailand for the time-being.
The pandemic has to finish off before air travel could be back to full steam again.
But only rich tourists are allowed into Thailand starting today! They have special visa to enter Thailand for a long stay visa (9 months).
The rich always have special privileges. It will take airline industries many years to recover. Perhaps travelling could revert back to a time when only those "responsible" ones can afford to do so as certain tourists without life insurance and adequate savings committed suicide when they run out of options during the lockdown. This unpredictable pandemic caught many people off-guards in a myriad of ways.
Our thoughts determine whether we live in heaven or hell. Those believing the pandemic to be very real are often those who had lost loved ones or they have dependents and fear death. Those on the "plandemic" boat will often think along the lines of conspiracies, world domination theory and etc. Both are true. Fear of death is valid reason for seemingly cruel decisions. While the unscrupulous will always make excuses to oppress. All refuse to budge even if their actions happen to inconvenience or far from the best interest of others.
