I believe this is a (lucionensis) Brown Shrike - a species which we get regularly in Hong Kong. Grey-backed Shrike only occurs in northern Thailand in winter and its range does not extend as far south as Phuket.

Depends on age & race of the birds in question. The Phuket bird is an adult. Compare with a similar adult lucionensis at Lai Chi Kok in May:
