The situation in Thailand remains difficult for human rights and labour activists with continuing attempts by the Thai government and companies to stifle dissent. The use of the all encompassing Article 112 (Lese Majeste) has varied over the years according to the need of successive Thai governments to stifle dissent. We call on trade unions and worker activists all around the world to campaign for the abolition of Article 112 and the release of all political prisoners.
