There has been a strong urge from the people in the property sector to the country’s newly-elected democratic government to be more generous towards foreign property investors. Thailand going back to democracy after a 15 month military rule has already had a positive impact on the property market. There have been a notable number of deals completing during the high season in Phuket as well as more visitors to the sole agency projects. The newly elected government has begun to take initiatives toward a more open and favorable policy for foreign property investors. The new government has already taken away the 30% capital control which is thought to support bringing back foreign investments.

Since the December election, foreign investors have shown increased interest. Established developments have witnessed a particularly alive high season. Newly awarded projects have also met with a positive response. A similar trend is witnessed in Samui with a clear rise in visiting and purchases of resort properties. It is anticipated that there will be further demand in Samui with surge in flight schedules. The Samui market for luxury villas is closing on Phuket, with the establishment of international hotel brands wooing quality tourism. Samui has traditionally been a less favored beach destination, but this not at all the case now as it is emerging rapidly as a beach destination. Lot of high net worth investors is now increasingly keen. The Treasury Department’s recent land value appraisal displayed that land values in Phuket have rose by an average 160 per cent over the past four years, with Samui prices following closely. The steady rise in land prices on Thailand’s coast points to the confidence in the market and its long term prospects. There is no doubt that Thailand’s property market is continuously flourishing. Foreign investors will have a good time investing in Thailand from now onwards. If you are ready to forget the unfriendly past of Thailand and show renewed faith you are set to benefit.

Asians came to Norway in late 1960’s when Norway was in need of man power. Most of them were from the indian subcontinent. These people were looking for a greater earning and had in mind to return back to their home country when they first arrived in Norway. As the time passed by, more people from Asia came to Norway for different reasons, most of them were refugees, some of them came on the ground of familyreunion and some of them on the humanitarian ground. The increased number of people from this part of world, created a new market for products of their home country. This was the early beginning of asian businesses in Norway. People who came to Norway found it more and more difficult returning back because they had families setteled here. As well as some of them saw new opportunities to do business in this market which might not have succeeded in their home country because of hard competetion.

Today there are far more asians running their own companies in Norway than ever before and the number is rising quickly. There is in fact no statistics for how many companies are established by asians in Norway, but it is certain that the number is rising. This fact is also supported by the growing acknowledgement in the norwegian people for services provided by these “foreigners”. Even if most of the businesses are related to the food industry, there is a growing number of car dealers, IT-consultants, property dealers, etc. And some of the companies have gained a countrywide reputation, showing the potential lying within this segment of norwegian business market.
