Unrest, virus curbs thwart freedoms 59 Foreign journalists discuss obstacles to reporting in Thailand, writes Thana Boonlert published : 14 Dec 2020 at 04:00 Tostevin: Journalists face intimidation Foreign journalists have expressed concern about restrictions on press freedom in Thailand with current laws proving to be an obstacle to reporting of the anti-government protests, despite government assurances there have been no curbs on freedom of expression. For months, the pro-democracy movement has made international headlines with demands for Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha to stand down, a rewritten constitution and reform of the monarchy. Matthew Tostevin, the Southeast Asia editor for Reuters, told a forum at the Foreign Correspondents Club of Thailand (FCCT) last week of the legal challenges which foreign media face when reporting news in the region.
