Maikhao Subdistrict Administrative Organization Addresses Construction Permit Discrepancies
Local authorities in Phuket are investigating a construction permit application filed by a representative for a celebrity, noting discrepancies between the approved plan and current site developments.
The Maikhao Subdistrict Administrative Organization (SAO) in Phuket has issued a clarification regarding a construction permit application submitted by a representative known as 'Chang Ae' on behalf of a well-known celebrity. According to Matichon Online, the initial application requested authorization to build a single residential structure. Notably, the submitted architectural plans did not include a swimming pool. Local officials have confirmed that they are currently reviewing the case, as reports have emerged suggesting that the actual development at the site has expanded to include eight structures. The SAO stated that they were not previously informed of this expansion and are now working to verify the details of the construction project. For residents and visitors, this situation highlights the importance of local zoning and building regulations in Phuket's rapidly developing areas. While the administrative process is ongoing, it remains to be confirmed whether the additional structures were built with proper authorization or if they constitute a violation of the original permit. Authorities have not yet released a final determination on the legality of the current site status, and further investigations are expected to clarify the discrepancy between the single-house application and the eight-unit reality.
