TKDfella Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 47 minutes ago, frank0424 said: Fair enough. However in essence you're saying your phone is more important than your life. I don't think you'd be a coward if you handed over your phone to someone that wanted to kill you for it. We cant ask the guy that got killed if he wished he had handed his over. Very difficult, this one. Was the iPhone just an excuse for something else. Handing over a phone might not stop there. When people fight back they don't think they are going to get killed for doing so unless the intention is clear at the beginning. R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyF Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Glad they got this scumbag. I often stop at that 7-11 on my way back from The Walk shopping mall nearby. Not a bad area at all, a couple of new condos going up/recently gone up, a few local restaurants, a hiso village at the end of the soi where it meets Pradist Manudharm etc. Pretty shocking if it really was just for an iPhone. When I first heard about it I suspected some personal vendetta but looking at it again and looking at the culprit it looks like it might have just been a brutal robbery. Very sad either way.

So all other countries are crime free? And crimes didn't exist in Thailand before 2014? Get real and educate yourself. This type of robbery and escape using motor bike type vehicle is fast growing all over. Italy was always rife with this. London is being plagued by it. A young man was brutally murdered by thugs who see thieving as an alternative way to make money. A phenomenon that's been around for a very long time.

To be safe, keep the phone locked with passcode, and just give away to the sealers. I hope Apple have lot of security to find and get back the phone. It should be a default feature of the phone to get it back when it is lost, and the find owners. We are living in 21st century with so many mobile networks and connectivity. The fact that they made an arrest so quickly suggests the phone lead police straight to him. RIP to the deceased and condolences to his family.

Networks have the ability to trace the phone through is ICCID and IMEI, all these details are transmitted and become part of the call data record. Thai police have the ability to track and record any phones based on these electronic IDs built into every device. Whether they do or not is a matter of conjecture. I suspect that they are far more focussed on tracking and recording the political dissidents (anyone who s not a junta lover) here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryAdriaenssens Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 He won't be the last, dear friends. Maybe it's me but it seems so many Thais are just addicted to their iPhones, it's unbelievable. They can't even put their eyes off that screen while eating in a restaurant. I can always predict what they're going to do while entering a bus, eatery or any other place. What a world!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP just like the rest of the world... i remember americans being killed for their sneakers... that was in the 80s or 90s societies change, faster and faster than ever. 25 years ago life was slow here. many people had no clue about anything outside their village. now there's the internet and smart phones and small minds can't take the pressure/impulses. 4 "friends" going out for dinner, 20ers and 30ers, ALL WATCHING THEIR PHONE (also in other parts of the world) is NOT what i consider normal behaviour. and i'm no dinosaurus myself! imo no matter how much further we will evolve with TECHNOLOGIES, our core is still the same as a Monkey!
