Living abroad may simply be a pipedream for many Singaporeans. But if you’ve accumulated enough wealth, even dreams can become reality.

However, to qualify for the scheme, wealthy folks will need to invest S$1.53 million (40 million baht) in Thai property, securities, or funds over a period of three years.
As mentioned earlier, this only applies to those who are able to invest S$1.53 million (40 million baht) into the Thai economy.
Aside from land, prospective investors will also get attractive tax benefits and a 10-year visa to the country.
Through the lucrative opportunity, the Thai government reportedly hopes to attract more skilled workers and retirees.
Reuters also reported that the scheme will undergo a review after five years.
That is to ensure that they’re on track to their projected figures, which include a S$38.2 billion (1 trillion baht) injection to the Thai economy and S$30.5 billion (800 billion baht) of new investments.
