mobility in Thailand
|
This may seem trivial or stereotypical but spend a few days in Thailand and it becomes obvious how sanuk affects every day life. And this is what I love about technology and mobile here. It’s fun. And if it’s not, it doesn’t seem to last very long (or maybe someone finds a way to make it fun.) So this leads to all sorts of personalization, interesting SIM card promos, music downloads and promotional displays in malls complete with song, dance, props, mascots, contests…it never seems to end. And yet for all this fun, the mobile culture is still very respectful. People frequently cover their mouths while talking on the phone in public or use an earbud headset holding the mic to their mouth. Most people remember to turn off their phones in movie theatres and if they don’t, hilarious adverts remind them to do so. But life is getting busier, things are costing more and i’m assuming debts are rising. People don’t always stop when the national anthem plays at 6pm each night like they used to and receiving calls on two handsets probably stops being ’sanuk’ every once in a while. Like many emerging markets, Thailand is growing and it’s hard to tell how things will change here in the coming years.
