I'll be attempting something similar, but I'm about 10 years away from retiring to Thailand (Mahasarakham). My wife and I already have a plot of land there, but I'm a complete beginner at gardening and permaculture. It doesn't help when I don't even recognize many of the plants you showed and I don't know what benefits they provide. I have a lot to learn. I plan on studying permaculture (just signed up for an online class), but more useful would be some information from people already growing things in the Isan region. Especially about the types of plants, how to raise animals in the tropics and general tips on living in Thailand.
I'm trying to network with people already in Thailand so I can learn a little before I actually go there. I'd like to be able to function a little when I arrive so I don't have to keep asking for help from all the neighbors all the time!
Drop me a line some time, if you have a few free minutes.
Keep up the good work!

Here's what it looks like today.

Thank you for posting updates and pictures - it's been enjoyable seeing the progress! So no more fires on your property? And what about the fish that you put in the pond? Are there many now?

Hi Annie. Thanks for the kind words.
The first property that had the 2 years of burning was fine this year. There has been pressure brought upon sugar cane processing factories to not accept canes that have been burnt, due to all the air pollution the burning causes. I'm hoping this will continue to grow and quickly be the norm. This will mean the threat of fires getting out of hand should become a thing of the past (and 1600 young trees won't get cremated!). I will probably wait another year before I start planting them.
The fish are another matter! We cannot see them in the pond, so they've either all ran away or they've been massacred by predators (aka neighbours). Its no big deal. If someone, man or beast, enjoyed them, then that's OK.
I will hopefully visit there this week, so will try to take some photos, but not much has changed there since we bought it.

In modern times the only right way forward is to come back to nature.

permaculture is largely about replacing oil with people. And one tiny ad:
