Srikcir Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 And who would enforce this law - the RTP or the RTM? Under Prayut, Thailand's Human Rights Commission has been decertified by the UNHRC and gutted from any investigative and independent reporting authority. The DSI now under Prayut's supervision? Any such anti-torure bills now will be just as effective as fingernail polish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kensawadee Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 In contrast to this... On the same topic.... Have you seen the North Korean guy KIM pictured smiling as he watches some of his own soldiers have their hands smashed with a sledge hammer (among other torturous training) --- AS TRAINING..... HE probably wouldn't condone this law in NK.... https://www.yahoo.com/news/kim-jong-un-applauds-north-185800338.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure legislation of this nature hits close to the quick - which of course might suggest that there is deeper involvement in this despicable activity than not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
