"The Crown Property Bureau will turn away from small lessees and instead invite large-scale property developers to build megaprojects on its land in the heart of Bangkok for the sake of bigger returns, in a move which surprised some residents but was welcomed by estate developers.
A source at the bureau said the change would start with a plot on Phloenchit road within this year. "
Not such a good role model for the theory, CPB doesn't seem to care much about the sufficiency of other.
"Chanpen Supho, 34, a fruit vendor in the area, said she knew nothing about the project, but she had already lost her stall at the mini-shopping arcade in Soi Lang Suan 4 over a month ago.
"The land owner told us to move to a new place in the middle of Soi 6. But I gave up because I couldn't afford the rent of 9,000 baht a month," said Ms Chanpen, who is now selling her fruit from a cart."
