I don't think Chalerm was too traumatised by the incident, and he was sensible in not trying to run after the thief or do any snooping on his own. But it was a wake-up call for him. I have reminded him to be careful out on the streets here in Bangkok and now he can see my point.

Presumably, the people we know are not likely to snatch our possessions and run away with them. Hopefully, Chalerm was not too traumatized by all of this.
