webfact Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 DSI holds special course on how to treat human trafficking victims BANGKOK, 11 June 2014, (NNT) - In a bid to show the international community Thailand's efforts to eradicate the issue of human trafficking, The Department of Special Investigation is holding a class for officials on how to treat victims of the crime.Acting Director-General of the Department of Special Investigation (DSI), Police General Chatchawan Suksomjit, said the campaign is a joint project of the UNODC and the DSI, saying victim treatment is part of the department’s ongoing efforts to eliminate human trafficking problems in Thailand.Participants would learn how to provide proper care for traumatized victims in line with the international practice, which may help officials bringing traffickers to justice.Currently, human trafficking rings use Thailand as their origin, passage way, and destination.According to him, for over 4 years, the United States has put the kingdom under its category 2 watchlist, meaning Thailand is trying to address the issue with little success. If the issue is left unattended, the U.S. may decide to downgrade the nation to category 3, which indicates that Thailand is neglecting the problem. The move will undoubtedly affect the nation’s economic affairs with the U.S.He added that the department would deploy strict measures and report its progress to the U.S., in order to show the kingdom’s sincerity in eradicating the issue. -- NNT 2014-06-11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NongKhaiKid Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 DSI should also run courses on how to conduct investigations with an application of urgency rather than the usual summoning people sometime before they die. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chainarong Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 After finishing this complicated course they will commence another course in how to identify suspects and actually charge them, no easy task , now that the Democrats are taking a rest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomross46 Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I hope they do not follow the example of the government in the USA. It appears the Taliban terrorist get better treatment then children of Illegal Aliens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useronthenet Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I think its a matter of urgency as Thailand is yet again exposed in the international media front for the wrong reasons. http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2014/jun/10/supermarket-prawns-thailand-produced-slave-labour#comment-36813139 http://www.dn.se/ekonomi/the-guardian-slavarbete-pa-fiskebatar-i-asien/ http://www.nu.nl/economie/3798883/supermarktgarnalen-product-van-slavenarbeid.html Difficult to ignore the facts, and certainly they can't bury their heads in the sand on this one. Seems that EU & US may impose sanctions if Thailand does not change their wicked ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeLing Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Some 21 million people worldwide are in forced labour with migrant workers most vulnerable.Over half of all forced labourers work in Asia, with 18% in Africa and almost 10% in Latin America.If the governments of the developed countries (and their people) would be serious with their threats towardsnations who allow slave labour, sure a big proportion of those slave laborers would have a better life but thenwhat westerners would want to miss exotic food, cheap clothing and electronics?

How often and for how many years have they threatened to impose sanctions and nothing happen? Now that this appalling behavior has been exposed, perhaps consumer pressure will demand slave-free products. Besides, Thailand is already on the US watch list. If they are downgraded to tier 3 then the game is over for the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggt Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 The FBI reports more than 100 thousand children are forced into the sex trade in the US every year... Who...or what country...is holding the US accountable for their own human trafficking problems...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UbonRatch Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Shouldn't they be trying to locate them and free them first, before learning how to treat them? <deleted? typical illogical order, as usually is the Thai way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby nz Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Perhaps they could hold a special course for DSI staff on how to track down and apprehend those who shoot and throw grenades at protesters. I would think the army could help them, perhaps even take them out of their air con offices and give them some practical experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noitom Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 This Thai course for human trafficking victims will be sure to show the world that Thailand is dead serious about eliminating human trafficking in Thailand from the top. A fish stinks from the head. When the Thais initiate a program to haul off the Thai Mr. Bigs and bank money laundering VPs, the the world may notice something positive being done.
