"Chinese companies have been actively looking for opportunities to invest in a wide range of real estate assets in Bangkok and major resort markets. "It is apparent that Chinese investors have a strong appetite for investment opportunities in Thailand. "As more Chinese investors better understand the investment landscape in Thailand’s real estate sector, we expect more Chinese investment soon," she added. Land acquisitions by Chinese investors made a comeback last year, with a rise of 44% following significant transactions in Hong Kong, Australia and Malaysia. "We do believe that Chinese investors will continue to be major movers of capital into global real estate for many years to come," said Mr Green-Morgan.
