Soaring above the lush greenery, the Alpine Golf Club stretches across a vast 900-rai expanse in Pathum Thani—a sight to behold by any golf enthusiast. But what lies below this verdant paradise is a tale that gets more intriguing with each passing day, embroiled as it is in legal debates and ownership conundrums. Let’s delve into the latest chapter of this high-stakes land saga. The Department of Lands (DoL), guarding its proverbial gates, recently made a firm declaration about the controversial plot. Contrary to reports rippling through the media, the title deeds for this monastic land haven’t faced the axe of nullification just yet. Had this come to pass, the Alpine Golf Club along with its chic residential complex, would revert to being monastic property. The residents and the famed Alpine Golf & Sports Club Co. would then be cashing in on some hefty compensation paychecks. Quite an intriguing twist…
In a whirlwind of political intrigue and property entanglements, the Department of Lands (DoL) has found itself in the glare of public scrutiny regarding the Alpine Golf Club plot nestled in the heart of Pathum Thani.

This debate, expected to make waves in March, could occur even sooner, as the opposition gears up to question the government’s fortitude under glaring public scrutiny. The specific timing for this verbal showdown was deliberately chosen to sidestep a potential collision with the House’s impending debate over constitutional amendments, slated for mid-February.

The PP’s battle plan is nothing short of robust; with as many as 20 censure issues locked and loaded, they’re poised to challenge…
