UPDATE: Details from woman who escaped Phuket Sandbox


Recommended Posts

In an update to a story that broke yesterday, more details have emerged about the still-unnamed person who escaped from the Phuket Sandbox on Tuesday. Reports now state that it was an 18 year old woman who disappeared from the mandatory 14-day stay upon arrival in Phuket and was picked up Tuesday night in Chonburi after authorities were about to contact her and she confessed her location. Initial reports only revealed that a Thai national had fled the Sandbox after only 9 days of the soft quarantine required on arrival and that the SHA Plus hotel had reported them missing. […]

The post UPDATE: Details from woman who escaped Phuket Sandbox appeared first on Thaiger News.

It looks like the "command center" needs few more screens to be added. Obviously security and the whole sandbox protection and tracing is a complete sh&#

Perhaps more searchlights too. Not too sure about gun towers though, the noise might wake the other detainees.

edit: Having just now read the update, I can see 'the thick plottens' (as someone once said).

"Phuket Governor Narong Woonciew said that authorities would be investigating how she was able to freely exit and how to prevent it from happening again."

100 baht?

Many a true word, although only 100 Baht does seem a bargain.

Leaving Phuket is probably just as easy as taking the bus or taxi. You don't need any documents for leaving Phuket. Mostly it's the hotels' job to check that their guests return to their rooms, probably via the policy of leaving the room key at the reception when going out.

The mobile app can maybe used for tracing but I have no idea who has access to the data. (Hopefully not just anyone asking for it.) Besides the data is probably a little bit anonymized in the sense that you cannot just search for a person by name and then follow her movements in realtime, one would hope...

Don't forget the razor wire like they showed they did on the news to parts of the open border.

Yes they can. If the phone is switched on, then it can be 'found'.
