Bangkok – The Biodiversity-Based Economy Development Office (Public Organization), or BEDO, organized a workshop titled “Biodiversity Credit Roadmap of Thailand” from 26 to 28 March 2026 at The Berkeley Hotel Pratunam, Bangkok. The event aims to advance biodiversity finance mechanisms in Thailand in alignment with international frameworks.

The workshop supports the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework under the 15th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity, which sets the “Nature Positive” target to halt biodiversity loss by 2030 and restore ecosystems over the long term. Biodiversity Credit is being developed as a market-based financial mechanism to mobilize funding from all sectors for conservation and ecosystem restoration.

Raweewan Bhuridej, Ph.D., Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, delivered the opening remarks and highlighted the implementation of policies under Mr. Suchart Chomklin, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Natural Resources and Environment. She stated that Thailand has established a clear direction to integrate conservation with development through the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan 2023 to 2027. The plan outlines three key strategies and 12 major targets, including expanding protected areas to at least 30 percent of land and marine areas, maintaining the status of threatened species, and encouraging businesses to integrate biodiversity considerations into their operations.

She added that BEDO serves as a key agency in driving Thailand’s bioeconomy and has been studying international approaches to Biodiversity Credit, covering definitions, principles, assessment systems, and market mechanisms. These efforts are accompanied by an analysis of their applicability to Thailand, which has rich ecosystem diversity and therefore requires strong academic knowledge and collaboration from all sectors.

Tanit Changthavorn, Ph.D., Director General, Biodiversity-Based Economy Development Office (Public Organization), said in his keynote that the world is facing three major crises: climate change, PM2.5 pollution, and biodiversity loss. These challenges directly affect the global economy, with more than 50 percent of global GDP depending on nature. This highlights the need for innovative financial tools such as Biodiversity Credit to mobilize funding for conservation and ecosystem restoration.

BEDO is advancing the concept of a Nature Positive Economy through collaboration with the private sector under the Biodiversity and Business Sustainability program. The initiative aims to enable businesses to operate while enhancing natural capital, while also creating opportunities for local communities to access funding and actively participate in ecosystem restoration through mechanisms such as Community Biobanks and family forests.

The workshop also brought together experts from Thailand and abroad, including representatives from UNDP, the Asian Development Bank, Conservation International, and WWF, as well as leading academics and private sector stakeholders. Discussions focused on market trends, international frameworks, and global case studies related to Biodiversity Credit.

In addition, participants were introduced to the Business and Biodiversity Check tool, which helps assess business impacts and dependencies on biodiversity. The program also included practical training on developing Biodiversity Credit projects and evaluating credits in accordance with international standards such as VERRA.

BEDO expects that the workshop will enhance understanding of Biodiversity Credit in Thailand, strengthen collaboration among stakeholders, and support the development of policy approaches to drive the sustainable conservation and utilization of biodiversity in the long term.

Bangkok, Thailand — SCOPE Company Limited, a Bangkok-based ultra-luxury residential developer, announces the release of the final five two-bedroom residences at SCOPE Langsuan, marking the last opportunity to own a freehold home in one of Bangkok’s tightly held residential addresses.

Located on Langsuan Road, where new freehold supply is increasingly limited, SCOPE Langsuan combines prime location, generous living space, and long-term asset value. The project is situated just 100 metres from Chidlom intersection, within walking distance of BTS Chidlom, Central Embassy, Central Chidlom, and Lumpini Park — offering a rare balance of city convenience and residential privacy.

The Langsuan–Ploenchit area has long been recognized as one of Bangkok’s most desirable residential neighborhoods, particularly among expatriates and long-term international residents.

“We are seeing a clear shift toward larger residences in central Bangkok, particularly among expatriates and long-term residents who prioritise space, privacy, and immediate livability,” said Mr. Yongyutt Chaipromprasith, Chief Executive Officer of SCOPE Company Limited.

“With very limited freehold land remaining on Langsuan Road, these final units represent a rare opportunity to secure a long-term asset in one of Bangkok’s most established and internationally recognized residential locations.”

Designed in collaboration with Thomas Juul-Hansen and Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF), SCOPE Langsuan reflects international standards of design, with a focus on proportion, materiality, and functional living.

Each two-bedroom residence offers:

• Generous living space from 154 sq.m.
• Thoughtfully designed layouts for everyday living

• High-end materials and premium finishes

• A strong sense of privacy

Residents also benefit from SCOPE’s signature services, including weekly housekeeping, daily coffee and matcha service, and concierge support — delivering a hospitality-style living experience within a private residential setting.

The Langsuan–Ploenchit area remains one of Bangkok’s strongest expatriate residential and rental markets, particularly for larger units in prime central locations. Since the beginning of 2026, the majority of units sold at SCOPE Langsuan have been two-bedroom residences, reflecting a clear trend toward larger living spaces among expatriates and long-term residents. At the same time, several two-bedroom units have been leased within a short period, achieving rental rates of up to 380,000 Baht per month, reinforcing the project’s strong rental performance and long-term investment potential.

For international buyers, ownership at SCOPE Langsuan may support eligibility for Thailand’s Long Stay Visa programme, subject to applicable conditions. SCOPE also facilitates the application process in coordination with Thailand Longstay Company. Under the programme’s terms, buyers of units valued at 100 million Baht and above may receive a waiver of the first-year visa service fee (27,000 Baht), as determined by Thailand Longstay Company.

With only five two-bedroom residences remaining, SCOPE Langsuan is now entering its final phase of sales. This is a rare opportunity to own a freehold residence in one of Bangkok’s most tightly held and prestigious neighborhoods.

Prices start from 92 Million Baht
Unit size from 154 sq.m.
