In previous reviews, we discussed many big box retailers, but here we drill down to the guys who run shops that sell consumer electronics to the Thai population.

I recall someone else (maybe Microsoft CEO Nadella) saying we are on the third Industrial or Digital Revolution. Well, let's just indulge the…
