Biography

Thai property tycoon Anant Asavabhokin's biggest asset is a stake in SET-listed Land And Houses.

He founded the company with his mother, Piangjai Harnpanij, in 1983. The company is known for its focus on semi-detached houses.

The Covid-19 pandemic hit the company's rental income but saw an increase in the sale of semi-detached houses and townhouses.

In 2021, the company acquired SpringHill Suites by Marriott, a 120-rooom hotel in California for $31 million.

About

In 2017, he resigned from the chairmanship of four of his companies over money laundering charges. He denied any wrongdoing.
