I have a question about Thailand

I have a question. Does really exist thieves in Thailand?



If I have a car like this in my country, probably I need to be armed or be part of Mafia






Thanks!

Hahahahahah

Of course there are thieves... but car theft, not really.. especially not for a "cheap" car like a Yaris. Sure, there may be some smash-and-grabs but it's really not that common...

Another question, people are rich in their country or just car parts are very cheap?

hmmm consider this...

Naaah it's just a different culture mostly, I think... while there are a lot of cars around, they are really considered huge purchases for a "normal" family.

Compared to Americans, the average person here has way less disposable income, it's just that some choose to spend it all on their cars

And yes, a lot of stuff is relatively cheap, especially labor, there's an abundance of replica parts, no shipping to worry about...

I mentored a young man who was doing time here in Los Angeles for car theft. He had it worked out that they would do 4 to 5 Hondas a night, driving them to pre-scouted abandoned houses to strip them. He was 15 at the time.

Plenty of thieves anywhere you go, I think.
