sz1a Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) The only people capable of changing Thailand's corruption, nepotism and discrimination are the Thai's. Until they decide to do so I don't think anything is going to change except for more good-hearted change-mongering farangs in jail.

NextStationBangkok Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Burma wanted to be like Thailand with growth and prosperity. Thailand wanted to reverse their growth to a dictator state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manhood Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Victims in Thailand can only be foreigners, no matter from which country as long the Thai's are "clean washed".....and sure the courts in Thailand are THE ONE WHO HAVE JUSTICE IN THEIR HANDS. So stay away from anything that might be justice in this country! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emster23 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I wonder if any of those on Constitution drafting panel have considered that concept of "double jeopardy"?

soalbundy Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Immoral. End of. Andy Hall is a true gentleman & I vrry much suspect this particular justice system will hang him out to dry sooner rather than later. This despicable company clearly knows that if you throw enough 5hi7, some sticks. If they have a PR guy he must having a mental breakdown right now.

kiwikeith Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Andy Hall has only tried to help other people and look what it got him. Shame on the Thai's and the Fruit company. There are many that should be on trial for Human Rights offences, splashed all over the media yesterday 5 cambodians dead on fishing trawler due to vitamin deficancy (starvation) malnutrition. Happens quite reguarly and nothing done. Human trafficking, abused migrant labour, mafia murdering tourists, boy what a show they are putting on ,and now prosecute a Human rights activist.

EyesWideOpen Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 What is the deal with the UK ? They simply seem to never stand behind their citizens . If this was an American being railroaded like this, the tune would be played out differently.... Still think this story will be picked up on world wide media and backfire big time on Thailand. The old days of using defamation charges to screw people over worked great on Thai people, causing great fear. But this is NOT going to play out so well on the world stage. These government loonies better pray that Anonymous does not sink its teeth into this story.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjun12 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Thailand is a disgustingly corrupt country and I hate living here but I must. The social structure is rotten to the very core.

springheeled jack Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 the thais should have people like andy hall on their side instead of trying to stifle him the truth will out companies using and abusing child labour should be exposed and taken to court this company will suddenly develop a significant loss of trade ,the world is still watching .

Daryle Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I firstly read about Andy Hall on the Andrew Drummond website. We know Andrew has left Thailand and its time for Andy to leave because a free media no longer exists by direction of the good General.

Tatertot Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Curious is that as Andy purports, he only collected raw data. He did not make an article nor post any information. Thus, technically speaking,in criminal justice terms,,,,,, but then TIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisinth Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) It is sad to see this being continued. But to that end, why are so many blaming the government for what is happening? Charges have been made, rightly or wrongly, and the court has seen there to be a case to be answered. The disgust should be directed at the company making the allegations and not at the courts for doing their jobs IMO. "But Natural Fruit, the company at the heart of the dispute, has filed a string of its own criminal and civil cases against Mr Hall....." One of the big problems with getting civilized is that there will no longer be anything like true justice in this world as we are bound by the rules of laws.......................

NextStationBangkok Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 What about NYT, Reuters, HRW, UN-ILO all those talking about labor abuse in Thailand ? Do they arrest everyone and put in jail ? Thailand will not stop these nuisance until US and EU strike a sanction against Thai food exports to them.

billphillips Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Most companies (outside of Thailand) in the real world would hastily try to "rectify and reassure" in the instance of an exposed negative situation. The follow up procedure would be to try and play down the negative exposure and bury it as soon as possible, keeping it away from the publics thoughts. Ohhh no, not in Thailand they don't! Keeping the fruit thing going for years will do much more harm to the company than the initial exposure ever did. And they are doing it all by themselves, idiots! Good luck to the straight speaking Mr Hall, he needs all the luck he can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NextStationBangkok Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 How do we boycott this company? What do they sell? No more buying fruit on the street? Most of the converted into Fresh juice, cut pineapples, and jam into various brands. Most of them exported outside Thailand. If you don't like any of the above, only choice for you is to buy freshly cut pineapples on streets for Baht.20, it is cut by local Thai on his/her free will. Or find a girl friend in Chonburi who own pineapple orchards. She will feed you for free, of course you are forced to eat her watermelons(or mango's depends on the size) too!
