On the demand side, the importance of external demand can be fully appreciated by recognizing that the bulk of inventories in Thailand are primarily inputs and finished goods for the export-oriented manufacturing. In the fourth quarter of 2009, например, net exports and the change in inventories contributed 44 percent of the quarterly growth.

В 1972 the Government took a further step in this direction by amending the “Announcement of the Executive Council No. 58 on the Control of Commercial Undertakings Affecting Public Safety and Welfare”. The changes extended Government control and regulation over the operations of finance and securities companies, which until then had operated fairly freely. Following these amendments, in May 1974, long-awaited legislation establishing “The Securities Exchange of Thailand” (SET) was enacted. allowing the investment of savings in the capital market. По 1975 the basic legislative framework was in place and on April 30, 1975, “The Securities Exchange of Thailand” officially started trading. On January 1, 1991 its name was formally changed to “The Stock Exchange of Thailand” (SET).

Вьетнам попросил Лаос задержки 10 years the construction of a controversial multi-billion-dollar dam on the Mekong River to allow for more studies about its effects on the lives of millions of people who rely on the waterway for food and commerce. Vietnam’s natural resources minister, Pham Khoi Nguyen, made the announcement Wednesday in Hanoi, telling reporters that documents received so far from the Lao government were inadequate and lacked “realistic” statistical data. Nguyen is the chairman of the four-nation Mekong River Commission, a grouping of experts from Vietnam, Камбоджа, Laos and Thailand.  The commission failed last week to reach a consensus on whether to support further consultations on the Xayaburi dam project. Laos expects huge economic gains from selling most of the 1,260-kilowatt dam’s power to Thailand, and has argued that further studies would not be practical.  But environmental groups and other Southeast Asian governments say the dam will disrupt fish migration patterns down river and otherwise have a negative impact on the region. The Xayaburi project is the first of 11 proposed dams on the lower Mekong.  Ministers from the four countries are expected to hold further talks on the project in Laos later this year. Some information for this report was provided by AFP.

Despite the failure of the BSE, the concept of an orderly, officially supported securities market in Thailand had by then attracted considerable attention. In this regard, Второго национального социально-экономического плана развития (1967-1971) proposed, for the first time,
a plan for the establishment of such a market, with appropriate facilities and procedures for securities trading.

В 1969, as recommended by the World Bank, the government acquired the services of Professor Sidney M. Robbins from Columbia University to study the development channels of the Thai capital market. Professor Robbins had previously served as Chief Economist at the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The same year proved an eventful one for the Thai capital market, as the Bank of Thailand also formed a Working Group on Capital Market Development, which was assigned the task of establishing the stock market. A year later, в 1970, Professor Robbins produced a comprehensive report entitled “A Capital Market in Thailand”. This report became the master plan for the future development of the Thai capital market.

The more affordable a condo, the more should be the focus on improving engineering and design operations. В настоящее время, the most active residential property in Bangkok has become the affordable condominium sector as we see major developers launching many new projects. This shift in the industry brings up some interesting points worth mentioning. The more developers expand into this sector, the more attention they should pay to improving their engineering operation. There are many valid reasons why this sector is becoming more popular among developers: n The shift in consumer preference; n The purchasing power has not caught up with the land price. The price of land has been increasing continuously and significantly over the last few years. This is because the expansion of the mass transit system continues and the good earnings of developers make them aggressive to pursue expansion and also lure many newcomers into the industry. With the increasing land cost, the developers have no other way but to increase the density of the plot while keep the product small and efficient in order to make it attractive and still affordable to the real demand. The interesting points leading to the shift in focus to this special sector should be discussed. Shifting from lower density development to higher density development means more direct cost is shifting towards the building construction cost from land cost. On the other hand, the proportion of the overall project turnaround time, from land acquisition to transfer, increases in the construction phase as larger and taller buildings come up on each plot. It means construction time and cost play major roles in project returns. Кроме того, since this sector is more difficult to differentiate compared to the higher end sector, the ability to push the price up for higher margin is relatively difficult. Поэтому, developers in this sector should not focus too much on marketing but rather on improving their engineering and design operation. The returns from a project are sensitive to these operations even more in this particular sector. However, improving capacity in design and engineering operations leading to operational efficiency cannot be achieved quite simply. The better, faster and cheapОднакоtruction process must be thought through from design through construction, and should be further continued for long-term maintenance as well. Although product variety will still be with us, the creativity in design and engineering can still lead to economy of scale and speed. Good understanding of constructability by the architect leads to better efficiency in engineering work. The proper design that supports modular systems allows the construction process to be efficient and effective. However, there are some challenges to improve the engineering profession. Sadly, since the economic crisis hit Thailand in 1997, many professional engineers have left the industry due to lower compensation and lesser recognition. The engineering industry widely competes on cost as many developers are accustomed to the lowest bid procedure. Some even ignore many hidden costs that could be incurred by too much focus on low initial construction cost. Many have experienced that the lowest bid could eventually lead to higher cost, longer time, and poor construction. The low margin of the construction industry also makes significant innovation in the industry very slow. This is the challenge facing developers that aim to improve the design and engineering operation as human resources are hard to find. Hence, it may be a good time for many developers to start to shift their intention back a bit from marketing to another backbone of the industry, the operational side of the business. Since the shift toward urban and suburban affordable condominium seems inevitable, it may be a good time to pay more attention to improving the design and engineering operation.

The severity of the global financial crisis also saw the government introduce additional sweeteners for buyers — a 300,000-baht income tax deduction for any buyers of a new home that was transferred within 2009. В то же время, mortgage interest that could be deducted from taxable earnings was increased to 100,000 baht from 50,000 and has now become a permanent tax benefit.

The reason is partly improved infrastructure, with the Skytrain and soon to be opened Mass Transit Subway system making the business districts more easily accessible from the outskirts of Bangkok. Northern districts such as Ram Intra, Rangsit, Nonthaburi, and Chang Wattana are the hotspots of housing estate development, while the downtown areas surrounding Silom, Sathorn., and Sukhumvit Roads remain the most active areas for new condominiums.

Перечисленных разработчиков Areeya собственности Plc планы восемь проектов общей стоимостью 8 млрд. бат в следующем году, говорит главный исполнительный Висит Laohapoonrungsee. Среди планируемых проектов три кондоминиумов в пространстве и отношение брендов наряду с пятью событиями таунхаус. “We’ve cleared a lot of products from our portfolio this year. From now, we’ll acquire new land [for future development],” said Mr Wisit. Areeya has earmarked 2-3 billion baht to buy two or three plots next year. Last Friday, the company launched the 2-billion-baht A Attitude Asok-Ratchada. The condo will feature 39 storeys housing 450 units priced from 3.5 million baht or 80,000 baht per square metre. Construction will start about mid-2011 and is expected to take about two years. The company has secured a 938-million-baht loan from Siam Commercial Bank to support the construction. Areeya will introduce two more projects in the remaining months of this year, bringing the total number of launches for 2010 to five worth a combined 4.5 млрд. батов. Mr Wisit said the company expected a net profit margin of 15% к 16%, on a par with last year. Revenue growth is targeted at 10% от 3.5 billion baht last year. Realised revenue next year will come mainly from townhouses, prompting the company to focus more on that sort of development for its new projects. Shares of Areeya closed on Friday on the Stock Exchange of Thailand at 3.78 baht, up four satang, in trade worth 159,000 baht. Источник : bangkokpost.com .

Incentives should come with solutions To make Bangkok more liveable, the government should establish a fund to build more park & ride facilities and offer tax incentives to buildings allocating their spaces for public use, suggests Thaweejit Chandrasakha, the president of the Association of Siamese Architects. He said the current city plan, which rewarded high-rise buildings in Lat Phrao that have built more parking spaces than required by law by giving them 30 square metres more of floor-area ratio (FAR) to promote the park & ride concept, was not practical as the trade-off was not worth it. A 10-square-wah parking space practically calls for a space of up to 40 sq m to accommodate driveways and walkways. “The new city plan will be revised over the next two years and it should have practical supportive measures,” he said yesterday at the “Home Development Today & Tomorrow” talk held by the developer Tararom Enterprise. He said it was a good idea to reduce the requirement for the number of parking spaces at buildings located within a one-kilometre radius of mass-transit lines. Однако, the problem is people have no spaces to park their cars for mass transit rides as there are not sufficient park & ride buildings available. “If we are to reduce the parking space at buildings in the central business district to limit car use, Bangkok Metropolitan Administration should establish a fund to build more park & ride facilities at terminal stations,” сказал он. Mr Thaweejit said this fund might be raised from any building owners that agreed to trade parking spaces for more usable spaces. Such buildings would benefit from more space and save the cost of the parking spaces. He said the architectural aesthetics of some buildings today was limited by the need to maximise legally allowed usable spaces. The government should offer tax incentives or more construction spaces for any buildings that agreed to take more setbacks for public use. “More FAR may be offered to these buildings if they provide setbacks for public use such as taxi waiting areas, parks or gardens. These buildings will then have beautiful fronts and Bangkok will be more liveable.” Having returned from Venice Biennale of Architecture 2010 in Venice, Mr Thaweejit said green design was no longer a trend but a must in many countries. In Malaysia and Singapore, the governments emphasise green architecture. When a project applies for a construction permit, certain green standards are required. Although high population density is a major global problem, there emerged new living ideas in such areas with livable and good quality of life. Например, Hong Kong plans to develop Kowloon into a livable density residential area where high-rise buildings are to be built close to one another and linked with skywalks to reduce crowds on the ground level. Another new trend is complexity. In the future, there will be not only a residential area in a building but also other functions such as schools, clubs, theatres and retail spaces. “It’s believed that people in the future will not want to go far to fulfil their needs. They will spend their life around their residences as they tend to be impatient,” Mr Thaweejit adds. Another idea came from Japan where family expansion will be a new trend. Their existing houses will be renovated to have more living spaces for every generation in the family. mong the housing trends in Japan are decks in place of roofs, as well as underground areas. В Таиланде, Mr Thaweejit said the residential unit size would decrease as land prices per sq m were higher. Designs should therefore aim at maximising functions. “High-priced materials will be less of an issue. People in the future will think more about how effective and what benefits they offer,” Mr Thaweejit said. The precast construction technology will be a future trend in Thai housing development as it reduces construction and material costs while speeding up the construction. Источник : bangkokpost.com .
