Does that mean someone can also be charged with theft during the hours of breakfast or lunch?

[sawadee1947]

Was a very good choice........ And a good Catch too

[grollies]

The real crime here is charging B31,000 for a Huwawai 'smart' phone.

 

B31,000.............? For a POS?

[IAMHERE]

I'm thinking he thought the penalty would be a free ride to France.

I assume you don't go out much? At least not to shopping malls.

 

Most shops have the real phones on display nowadays. The time of dummy phones is over.

If it was a "Huwawai", 31k is indeed a bit much. But the phone in the OP is a Huawei P30 Pro, which is the best phone at this moment on the market in the world. If you think this is a POS, you obviously don't have a clue about phones!

Huawei only won't be able to use Android for new models. Existing models are not affected. I work for a company who creates and delivers IC's to Huawei, so yeah, I do have a clue, but I guess B knows Best, right BestB?

Huawei will have their own OS by the end of 90 days and it will peepee all over android. Just announced today.

 

Honestly, anyone who thinks the Chinese never have a back up plan needs to think again. They let others take the weight and when its gets broke they step in.

 

Will you never learn? Nope I guess not. ????

Right. I was and still am planning to buy the Huawei P30 Pro, which is a very good phone in all aspects. Even if you get issues with software you still can root it and load a custom rom.

 Make sense, and people see less when it's dark? Array Wa?

 

   Did he come on a banana boat to Thailand?

 

  Last year two foreign thieves got caught in a short period, and I certainly know how that affects us in general:

 

 I had an appointment at the local hospital, sat behind an older lady, waiting for my OPD card.

 

   When the lady then realized that a foreigner was right behind her, she immediately took her handbag off the chair next to her and kept in on her body, giving me a very strange look.

 

I didn't feel good and that because some other guys had stolen handbags? If all human trash would be removed from Pattaya I might even consider going back for a holiday. 

 

  They should "stone him" with old phones and give him a few years to think about what went wrong in his life. And throw away the key, of course. 

 

   

 

    

 

  

 

    

 

  

why not just send him back to France? 

that would be a much worse punishment than all you mentioned!

Honestly anyone who thinks Chinese can make their own good and functional need to think again.but of course anyone welcome to own a piece of something that is not compatible with anything else

Say-la-vie... what a w-anchor... maybe his insurance premium was due?

How did he make "Illegal" entry into Thailand or do they mean he came in as a tourist & decided to stay a bit longer funding his existence via theft?

I have seem both in Thailand. The real deal usually has a security cable attached.

No, not much of a clue. But I am of the generation where, if I can buy a 'smart' phone that works, does my internet, email,  Line and WhatsApp, YouTube, blah, blah, ad nauseam for say B4,500 and it will last me a few years then why on earth spend £775 (B31,000) on a tarted-up product that does the same thing?

 

I know, I know, it looks cool right, has super graphics, a bigger screen.......yawn.

 

Does it have forward scanning radar that warns the user who is inevitably walking down the street, head down, reading their phone, updating their Facebook status, whatever, of pedestrians walking in the opposite direction? No.

A Chinese knock off of a Chinese phone. That would be something to see.

How does one get into Thailand illegally?

[Kadilo]

Only Thai visa can turn a story around a low life thief into one where they can wave their cocks about how “ my phone is better than yours”.

when I see some intentional obvious crimes, I wish there should be Sharia law everywhere, I wouldn't mind if as punishment would be cutting off some limb or even death penalty, because I don't see why society do need criminals and scumbags at all...

That is the most ridiculously ignorant and uninformed thing I perhaps have ever read.

[Lupatria]

Too stupid for a smartphone.

I second that. Unfortunately, Mr Terek is probably of the faith that promotes Sharia Law in which case that mind-set is the consensus.

Why didn't he just go and set up a gofundme page?  Or he could have gone down to beach road and got a sign and a bowl had people donate to him.

Clever thing to do when entering the country illegally. Thailand certainly draws them.
