Are those the same NGOs that make money of this issue? The same NGOs whose sole raison d'etre is child prostitution? And of course I won’t search for anything. You’re the one who made an accusation, so we can expect you to provide hard evidence from a trusted source that this is indeed as widespread a problem as you claim it to be. Then I’d be the first one to admit you’re right. But as long as you don’t have much more to offer than anecdotal evidence and the claims from dubious NGOs, I will keep calling it nonsense.

It might be better defined in Thai, but I read that as an 18 yo cannot work in a GGB for example. And where are these 'Ministerial Regulations'.... ? There used to be talk of this many years ago and it was always said the girls had to be 20+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defamation in Thailand is any insult or accusations… the truth doesn’t protect you. You don’t know that? You want me to insult a government organization lol… you are giving me conspiracy theories on NGOs Lol. You say it is nonsense but won’t look lol.. ok. You have news reports… here is a list of peer reviewed journal articles lol… https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=thailand+online+child+prostitution+social+media++&btnG= lol still not enough? Still won’t look yourself even though you believe it doesn’t exist and won’t be there lol. Ok, man…. Live in your fairytale world…. The news is lieing, the ngos are lieing, the peer reviewed journal articles are lieing, the “anecdotal” advertising of children online that you can literally see yourself also fake…. My god ask a Tuk tuk driver in a border town…. You have fake outrage over something you say doesn’t exist…. You have called this news article nonsense (it says they were procured online) lol….

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised about foreigners crying foul for their own failure to know the laws of their host country. Personally I think the 2 guys are probably guilty, looking at the available evidence. I am playing 'devils advocate' here. If the 2 guys in question were led to believe and were shown proof, like ID cards etc, that the girls were, lets say 18, then it would be called 'mitigating circumstances' ? I would be very surprised if it says in the Thai Penal code, mitigating circumstances are irrelevant? I cannot believe any country's penal code would say that? That is why I believe it would be relevant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
