Nikomkonkeao\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Chiang Mai is one of the undisputed jewels in Thailand\u2019s tourism crown. On the doorstep of some of the country\u2019s most stunning nature, the idyllic northern city beckons visitors with its laidback blend of ancient temples, legendary Lanna cuisine, and lively arts and music scene.<\/p>\n<p>But then March rolls around, and the smog rolls in. Every year, for about two months, Chiang Mai is shrouded in pollution, driving tourists away while long-suffering residents endure the poor living conditions. This pollution is exacerbated by the city\u2019s location in a valley, which traps the smoke from agricultural burning in the region.<\/p>\n<p>The city recorded the world\u2019s worst air quality for several consecutive days this year. Levels of PM2.5 pollutants\u2014fine particles small enough to enter the bloodstream through the lungs\u2014frequently surpassed 220, 20 times higher than World Health Organisation guidelines.<\/p>\n<p>The Thai capital Bangkok also suffered from severe pollution in February and March, prompting Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin to issue stay-at-home warnings to government staff and the wider public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese figures\u2014PM2.5 and PM10\u2014sound innocuous but most people don\u2019t realise that these are minuscule particles that are impossible not to inhale,\u201d built environment expert John Herbert told The Telegraph in April. \u201cIf you\u2019re exposed to these levels longterm, or even for a few months, you\u2019re going to face serious respiratory disorders and possible hospitalisation.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Buyers are starting to consider the longterm negative effects of air pollution, especially concerning their families\u2019 health<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Indeed, recent data released by Thailand\u2019s Health Ministry revealed that an estimated 10.5 million people in the country suffered from diseases related to air pollution in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, this is by no means a recent phenomenon. It is almost as if a collective amnesia takes hold of officials for another nine or so months. Despite strong statements on tackling the pollution, Srettha declined to designate Chiang Mai as a disaster area to protect the country\u2019s tourism sector. In an online announcement, he said the designation would \u201caffect the number of foreign tourists when tourism has just recovered in the wake of COVID-19.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The recurring pollution crisis doesn\u2019t only affect public health and tourism; it also casts a long shadow over real estate markets. While there\u2019s no clear correlation between the direct impact of air pollution on Bangkok and Chiang Mai\u2019s real estate markets, there is growing caution among investors, who are increasingly looking at less polluted areas such as Mae Hong Son, Phayao, and Chiang Rai for development, according to real estate analyst and PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards judge Marciano Birjmohun.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39242\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39242\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39242 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/shutterstock_2362961031.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/shutterstock_2362961031.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/shutterstock_2362961031-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/shutterstock_2362961031-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/shutterstock_2362961031-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39242\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Despite strong statements on tackling the pollution, Thai PM Srettha Thavisin declined to designate chiang mai as a disaster area to protect the country\u2019s tourism sector. teera.noisakran\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cBuyers are starting to consider the long-term negative effects of air pollution, especially concerning their families\u2019 health,\u201d he says. \u201cAlthough government policies have so far been ineffective in significantly mitigating pollution, developers are responding by incorporating green features and sustainable practices in their projects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Innovations such as air filtration systems, smart building technologies for real-time air quality monitoring, and biophilic design principles are becoming more prevalent. These efforts aim to address the immediate impact of poor air quality and enhance the overall attractiveness and healthfulness of urban living environments. Still, Birjmohun notes that \u201cthe lack of strong regulations to address the root causes, like industrial emissions and agricultural burning, remains a cause for concern.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another significant issue is the lack of sustainability data. Unlike North America and Europe where sustainability is closely managed by governments, in Asia, there is little understanding of key metrics outside of Singapore and a few other gateway markets. This gap makes it challenging to address investor sentiment and promote environmental compliance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTypically, in the West, listed groups have compliance initiatives, and large private equity groups investing in larger projects have environmental mandates,\u201d says Bill Barnett, founder and managing director of Asia-based consultancy C9 Hotelworks. \u201cThis is not the case for most of Thailand\u2019s real estate developers, though there are some notable exceptions like the Minor Group. It\u2019s a work in progress, but the problem is a clear and present danger to urban residential health and tourism alike.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The economic cost of pollution to Thailand is substantial, encompassing health-associated risks and impacts on insurers. These costs represent a significant, often overlooked issue. Additionally, attracting international investors, particularly from the West, who require high levels of compliance and a robust regulatory environment, poses a further challenge. Ignoring the growing pollution problem risks lagging economic growth and deterring potential investors.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing these issues requires both government intervention and a shift in developer practices. Barnett advocates for making an economic case for sustainability by highlighting energy savings, procuring local materials for carbon credits, and educating developers on how sustainability can enhance asset value versus the misconception that it\u2019s costlier.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChallenges can become more prevailing, and they have to come with innovation and sustainability frameworks to improve the air quality in and around their developments,\u201d he adds. \u201cForward-looking developers do not maximise their gross floor area anymore but rather offer a higher ratio of green area to commit to a healthier path of sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the construction and engineering side, more buildings invest in air filtration systems on a macro level, and additionally offer custom air quality devices in individual units.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the annual haze continues to consume Chiang Mai and Bangkok, it\u2019s clear that bold measures are needed. The inaction of the past must give way to collaborative efforts between the government and private sector, driven by the increasing demand for wellness in investments. This can help turn the tide, ensuring these cities are once again vibrant and healthy places to live and invest in.<\/p>\n<p><em>The original version of this article appeared in PropertyGuru Property Report Magazine Issue No. 185 on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/issuu.com\/propertygurupropertyreport\/docs\/pr_no.185_final\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">issuu<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.magzter.com\/SG\/PropertyGuru-International--Thailand--Co.Ltd\/Property-Report\/Business\/1769922\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Magzter<\/a>.
