Editor;
An interesting story about how Pattaya City Council and the builders of the Waterfront condo hotel complex are in disagreement. The apparent objections vary from changes to the original agreed plans to the more socially critical aspects (sic). The defence is that apparently paperwork confirms the legality of the structure.
What amazes me is that this is all in the open arena. Well done Pattaya Mail for bringing our attention to the stop building order issued by Pattaya’s mayor.
So can we detail the collateral damage? The people who have paid money for space in the complex and the suppliers who fear they may not get paid. Then the ripple effect: off-the-plan buyers of condos in other complexes who fear last minute objections may hit their investments, potential buyers in Pattaya who are now having second thoughts, people worldwide reviewing advantages of Pattaya over other venues.
The inability of the various parties to resolve the problems in private could create repercussions far beyond scoring in their own goals.
Amazing Thailand
