I'll bet the smaller 100 million baht limit applies. I think that at least the land is owned by Crown Property Bureau. I wonder about the mall (who owns or has master lease on that). I'll try to find the Bangkok Post article now. I'm confident there will be litigation over insurance coverage. I know that if this was in the U.S., the insurance company would file a declaratory action (seeking a judgment that it's only liable for $XX).
