Bank of Thailand relaxes investment rules (Nation)

I have been living in Thailand for over 20 years and witnessed the many changes the country has undergone since the Asian Financial Crisis.
I have spent time in Phuket, Samui, Hua Hin, and Chiang Mai, but I gravitate back to Bangkok when all is said and done. It is here that I spent years running a software development company and teaching at universities. These days I live on the Internet with Bangkok as my base.
I never stopped believing in the enormous potential of Thailand's kingdom, which is why I joined the ThaiVest Team.
