The Bangkok exhibition incident is just another example of Thailand acting as an instrument for #transnationalrepression for dictatorships in the region. Thailand also arrests, detains, & deports refugees at the behest of the Vietnamese, Chinese, & Burmese governments.
The embassy egregiously claimed that Thailand's "timely measures" showed that such a "false notion" has "no market internationally and is unpopular." Thailand's increased cooperation with the Chinese Communist Party to target dissidents, ethnic minorities, and other targets has.
