Phuket Sandbox: All tourists to wear location tracking wristbands


webfact

Recommended Posts

That wristband's gonna be anything but a status symbol. You're not gonna be made to feel like a dog in rabies quarantine? People aren't going to be reflexively jacking up prices as soon as they spot it? Too harsh? If you say so.

Is it waterproof? What happens if you take it off? Presumably it needs charging at some point. 

 

Will they use the data to spot people leaving the island (not that anyone would be stupid enough to wear it while they did that) or are they going to be actively looking for groups of people in unexpected places on the island and then turning up to bust up drinking, etc?

They really don't have a clue how Westerners think, or how this tracking bracelet will be received.

I can see people arriving in Thailand and blankly refusing to wear them.

We don't like authoritarianism and this action exemplifies it.

Every notice how these Thai degenerates announce this type of offensive garbage after the fact?

Unfortunately, you can't "fix" stupid... The only thing we can do at this point is to stop them from breeding with each other.

Yes enforced chemical castration of all Thai males may prove to be the answer perhaps

They'll be made in China so won't work for 14 days anyhow ????

Everything I've bought from China, even generic items from Lazada, have worked just fine. This may be the reason they are the number 1 exporting country in the world.

I can imagine a teacher asking a class of Thai business students what would you do if you wanted to strip away everything Tourists love about Thailand and specifically Phuket and this plan being their answer.

 

But the fact this is not a satire shows why there are no legitimate business schools in Thailand.
