smokie36 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Unless we have a set up here, every picture tells a story, if true , Thailand wanted a seat on the UN human rights council, Christ. Hey they have a Thai Human Rights Commission. Wolves in sheep's clothing....I wonder if they are getting involved in this case? Hunman rights activists get 'disappeared' in Thailand. The land of the free.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skildpadden Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 And Thailand was so surprised when they didn't get a seat in the UN Human Rights panel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smotherb Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Hard to imagine this is still happening in the 21st Century. Shanghai'd. Slavery, shipboard or land bound, is rampant in the 21st century, just google "current slavery in the world" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seastallion Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Just lucky that the boat that picked them up wasn't one of the 50 slave ships. This has to be the nail in the coffin for slavery. Evidence such as this must be convincing to the authorities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyesWideOpen Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 What an odd story. I thought normal operations for these boats was to enslave Burmese people. Guess with all the bad press from Burmese enslavement, the boats are now turning to enslaving Thais. Hmmmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klauskunkel Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Welcome to the 'Land of Smiles'. NOT ! This is a side tourist do not see.....if only tourists were aware of the - People smuggling managed by Thai's, the slavery managed by Thai's, the killing of animals for tusks, hide etc....managed by Thai's, the Foreign Passport thefts & re-sell managed by Thai's, the money laundering with no questions asked at Banks run by Thai's - people would not call this the Land of Smiles. Its a bloody disgrace & makes me ashamed to be Thai. We seem so behind the rest of Asia - like Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea.....how do we ever fit into the AEC or any group of civilized people. Are we going to remain a backward third world country for all my life?? It's all managed by Thai's because it's Thailand. Most countries have these crimes. In Britain these crimes are generally managed by British criminals. The UK has a slavery problem too believe it or not, thousands of women trafficked into prostitution, mostly from Eastern Europe as well as parts of Asia. Don't be ashamed to be "Thai". You're really just another human being like I'm another human being, nationality means very little. people are a commodity, now more so than in the past. And the value is going down, there are so many and increasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupatria Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Are we talking about the same country that tried to become a rightful member of the Human Rights Panel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balford Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I reckon that with all these criminal activities Thailand should aspire to becoming a third world country - that would elevate it way above its present position on the ladder of ethics and humanity.

tartempion Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 And the RTP isn't in a hurry to ask a few questions to the boat owner? Did he pay the BIB to be out of reach for some time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil B Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 It's all looking good for Thailand's ongoing human rights record. I am surprised Prayuth hasn't piped up with a media coverage ban ... Give it time though. Anyway, 3 days and only 4 KMs away from shore? What were they doing for 3 days?... playing 'I Spy'? I spy with my little eye, something beginning with sea. Is it even possible to tread water for 3 days solid? I smell something fishy. May be you should show us how it is done... Virtually no sleep and food for nearly a year, they were very lucky to survive, no chance of swimming against any current. Time for the navy to to do some real fishing by randomly inspecting fishing boats out at sea, hope those guys are able to know the names of the boats, their captains and what ports they worked out of.

catweazle Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Mr. Superman General - opportunity, as well as your duty as not only leader, but human being knocks! Instead of scaring off tourists and investors with ever changing and ever tighter visa laws and regulations, perhaps you could put the feet down on the fishing mafia industry of Thailand. Cleaning up house before cutting the grass in the garden would be the proper sequence here I believe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
