From what I can gather they're Arab descent and I've even heard Indian
Then others say no they're Thais
What are they?

The only "Nana family" I have ever known of were the ones I saw around Soi 4 when I first came to Thailand. They were all sexpats wearing cargo shorts and Chang wife-beaters !

Let's be honest if a family has become a rich dynasty here invariably they are of either Indian or Chinese descent and of course have impeccable and useful connections spanning a vast spectrum society U and non U. Note (tongue in cheek) that the Nana family have a lot of handy social, political, military, police and Muslim connections etc!!!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lek_Nanaen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nana_Plaza

Who cares what they are or where they originate from, they are Thai and they are loaded. Best of luck to them, shows what can be achieved in this country.

Always amazed me how the majority of the population seem to be struggling and a small percentage are loaded. Congrats to the ones who worked hard and climbed to the dizzy heights of buying their first Merc, which seems to scream in Thai - "Fork you ! I have made it baby" ! Would not mind being the person who owned Nana, imagine what they would be pulling in rents every month. Or the stinky hotel across the street, that houses all the wifebeaters who drink in Nana.

^^^ , are we talking about Nana Plaza or Nana area? You are correct however about rents etc, one reason I avoid the place, I aint making someone else rich. As for the hotel, thats a different family I believe, again loaded.
