Confiscation and expropriation really have a different meaning, other than they both mean property ownership is changed in the business field. Expropriation is the action stated by the government to take care of someone’s property or other private property under constitutional rights of doing. It is also the action by an authority of taking property from its owner for public use or benefit. Like In a small barangay you need to have a big place to conduct a party but the chairman is the only one has that enough space to conduct the activity so you only need the consent of the chairman to pursue the event. While the other hand the confiscation is about the action of taking someone’s property with authority or seizure. Like when the vehicle of Mr. Dan park in the street or inappropriate parking space that will cause traffic it is understood that it is against the law so they will confiscate the car.
