The heart of the matter

The rapid change that Bangkok is undergoing with train lines spreading in many directions might confuse property buyers, but to play it safe it is still best to be located in or close to the heart of the city because this does not change for generations, according to Pritpal Singh Gill, the country manager of Pacific Star International, Areas identified by Mr Gill as having the potential of benefiting from the spinoff of real estate values in the city centre include stretches further down Sukhumvit toward Soi 105 although he warned that this will take some time because there is still absorption left in the main Sukhumvit strip.
