Thechook Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 So no human trafficking on the 6th of June. What a nice guy allowing the cargo to have a sleep in, a day off and an extra spoon of rice. Now everyone line up for the photo and receive your reward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBadGeordie Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 I wonder if it will be like the Oscars? "He is unable to attend tonight, but here is a video he recorded earlier from Australia, where he is currently seeking asylum." Later we will be joined by Andy Hall via a live link from the Banhkok Central Criminal Court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partenavia Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 When I start to see people being arrested, charged and convicted, then given jail sentences. I will start to believe some progress is being made, but until then its all words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chainarong Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Thailand is always holding something , unfortunately what it generally is, is not allowed on these pages , this rhetoric gets nowhere outside of Thailand and no one is convinced of any improvement in any form of human rights abuse , and as NKK kindly points out , because he is a kindly man , similar to Prayut , the Junta is an abuser of human rights, under the disguise of national reform and reconciliation , Give us a break................................

Srikcir Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 The event might better be labled: Prevention and Suppression of Prosecution of Human Traffickers Day The Junta can't even bring itself to court martial the only human trafficking kingpin Army 3-Star Lieutenant-General Manas Kongpan nor the apprehended three mid-level army officers - all originally from ISOC. No criminal trials on any as yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valentine Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Really need to see court cases & sentencing completed if they want to be taken seriously. Good they have some up on charges but where is the follow through? Mr Prayut could update these & other corruption cases during his weekly address to the nation which could boost his standing.

yellowboat Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 So long as there are unaccountable people in Thailand, Mr. Article 44 included, and a limp wrested judiciary, nothing will change. There are people in Thailand who just do whatever they like. There biggest fear are the international news outlets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winniedapu Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Entirely to create the impression ahead of the next TIP report that Thailand is in the vanguard of suppressing human trafficking. It's shoddy, deceitful and entirely characteristic of this government and Thai culture to try and convince the stupid foreigners that Thailand is not a country in which law and order has broken down, but in fact leads the world. Complete and utter BS. W Waiting patiently for the first of the 'if you don't like it here you should go home' brigade to pipe up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenixdoglover Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Every NNT article is a lost opportunity. Here, a critical subject is raised, and there is an opportunity to educate and motivate citizens to join in the fight against human trafficking. The article could have: - explained the Blue Heart Campaign (it's from UNDOC) - offered examples of the awards (specific accomplishments) - quoted some official about the urgency, priority and role of citizens (to abstain, to report, etc.) Instead, what Thai citizens and interested expats are offered is the most underwhelming, minimalist drivel, which could be summarized much like most NNT "news" items, as: "Government officials did something today; mostly it was flapdoodle."
