Strangebrew Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Firstly if said offence took place outside country where freedom of speech is law then they can't do a thing. Secondly they should pursue Thaskin for he broke a law that would be against the law in any country so whey is he teflon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just1Voice Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Hey, Thailand, don't you have anything better to do that waste people's time on B.S. like this? Your written "requests" will be tossed in File 13, and your verbal requests will fall on deaf ears, or bring laughter to the listener. Lots of luck with this crap!

chooka Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 As no other country apart from Thailand recognises this ridiculous medieval law, can the persecuted apply for political asylum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chooka Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) The real irony here is, as Wikipedia points out in their article on the topic:- "Neither the King nor any member of the Royal Family has ever personally filed any charges under this law." It then goes on to quote comments made by His Majesty himself in his 2005 birthday speech. I won't quote them, just to be on the safe side, but they make an interesting read. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A8se-majest%C3%A9#Thailand. In practice the politically motivated use of these laws makes any effective Thai sociology almost impossible. How can you effectively analyse a society, its power structures, wealth distribution etc if a key part of the social structure cannot even be mentioned for fear of malicious prosecution? It is one thing to punish defamation of the Monarchy but quite another to effectively outlaw any mention of the role of the Head of State. It is being totally a used and abused as a weapon.

Popular Post Suffinator Posted February 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2015 Send the papers and it's likely most western governments would use them as toilet paper. They simply won't send anyone back under the pretense of LM as it's all to commonly used for political purposes. The UN Declaration of Human Rights, plus the UK's Human Rights Act 1998 and Europe's European Convention on Human Rights wouldn't allow extradition for such charges ... it basically breaks a number of the conditions; including a persons right to life and liberty and freedom of speech. With all going on and all the problems Thailand has you would honestly think they would concentrate on more important areas ... unfortunately keeping face appears to the the most important of all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manhood Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Don't they realy have other proplems to look after?!??!?!?!?!?!?!!? And if i am living abroad an like to use my possibility of freedom of expression i would take that fundamental right to do so: and that to me is not a lese majeste as long it's proven the truth somebody expressing. In Thailand people dont have the freedom of expression their mind and as long that is not possible by law and protected by law as long Thailand will never be a country that can claim beeing a democrate country: just "free " elections wont make democracy!

This is just childish stupidity, they seem to forget that some of these "criminals" would be in democratic countries, real democratic countries, opposed to Thailands idea of democracy, these countries have freedom of speech laws, in effect they would give these "Thai kids" the proverbial finger.

tbthailand Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Serious waste of time and they should get on with solving the REAL problems of the country. I agree with you on that statement. However, LM is a very important tool for the current 'government'... although clearly not applied to any of the real problems of the country, as you point out. But LM is very important for maintaing "national security"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asiaexpat Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Good luck with that request JM. With satements like ""Those countries will know that Thailand is worried and wants to bring the culprits to punishment," few counyrties will compy as this indicates a lack of justice for these "suspects."

Mot Dang Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 "Those countries will know that Thailand is worried and wants to bring the culprits to punishment," he said. I don't think so. Extradition ? Most countries will tell Thailand to take a hike as most democracies consider the law outdated and unjust. And those countries that are not a democracy, well inherently they will just have a laugh, and continue with what they do best, enslavement.

This army lot have shot themselves in the foot again. It could also start a new trend. Go abroad and commit LS in order to get the right to stay . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOAX Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I watched a so-called comedy show on Thai TV yesterday (for a minute), where one of the "comedians" was dressed up and acted like Hitler... Should every country with offended citizens stand in line waiting for the extradition of this comedian, and every viewer that was laughing? Every person on this planet would be flying around from country to country every week being extradited if all countries was like this funny guy...
