The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and the National Union of Journalists, Thailand (NUJT) deplores the comments made by Thai military junta leader Prayuth Chan-ocha against journalists on Wednesday, March 25. The IFJ and NUJT condemn the comments as a threat to press freedom in Thailand, noting that the comments illustrate the continued decline of press freedom in Thailand over the past 12 months.
Yesterday, when Prayuth was asked by a journalist how the military junta would deal with those that do not adhere to the official line, and he responded, saying “We’ll probably just execute them”. The junta leader followed his statement saying that “You don’t have to support the government, but you should report the truth.” He argued that journalists should write in a way that blosters national reconciliation in the kingdom.
