And, surprise surprise, a dummy camera costs at least twice as much as a real one...... in the la-la land of municipal tendering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a note to people installing them around their property. In this case even if they were working the crime would still have taken place. Sure they may catch the culprit. But after the fact and the stolen property is still ..well stolen. yes but can help catch the culprit and put behind bars.....OH sorry no they not do that here just a wai and a 200 baht fine !!!!

I would like to think also that functional CCTV would help apprehending the thieves. An efficient justice system could put him away and prevent him from further criminal acts. It all breaks down though, CCTV was installed, money went into pockets, no incentive to do any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I am fully aware of that fact. I just said that it was not so important, because in many places they use dummy cameras. However, they have no obligation to maintain them in working order either. There is no law that states such thing. Until then, It´s free for them to decide how to do and what to repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also have no obligation to provide CCTV on all locations. Just another try to once again put a negative stamp on Thailand. Having 40 percent of the cameras is a positive then. Thanks. Better clean your rose-coloured glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 CCTV cameras work when there's something in it for the arresting officer; but for this chickenfeed crime, neither cameras nor cops will work. This will only be solved if Facebook enters the fray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike787 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Ok so now what? This is a normal daily occurrence here in Thailand. People are beaten, killed, and robbed all the time...Live and learn.

Sydebolle Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 40% of cameras not working? Be glad, the other 60% are apparently real cameras. Wondering about the percentage of officials - in line with the CCTV camera ratio? Just asking as most of the time when I ask for something, the responsible person is "in a meeting" ????

observer90210 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 No matter where in the world, there is no foolproof safe haven. People often get their Rolex snatched in cities like Monaco, Geneva or Zurich that are in the top 5 most expensive jet-set cities of the globe that are wrongly considered as safe havens. Thailand does not escape this rule and it is as unsafe as many other western metros. Many tourists or part timers like to play their two week millionaire act in Thailand with massive or vulgar show of temporary wealth...not a reason to be mugged, but stupid does end up in getting in trouble. Stay safe, be humble and keep a low profile. In Thai logic, farangs displaying wealth, does not make then a big shot to the eyes of others...it often just makes them look like a (stupid) sitting duck, waiting to be mugged. Be safe.
