Thai Lawyers' Ideas on Dealing With Virtual Crime in the Real World

(1888PressRelease) November 26, 2010 - Bangkok, Thailand - Thailand corporate legal service BSA Law are pushing for a new system of Thai laws to help make cyber criminals far more accountable for their actions, saying that the internet has been largely 'lawless' to date.

BSA Law believes a range of measures working with current Thai law will help make cyber criminals more accountable, including:
- Utilization of the IMPACT service (International Multilateral Partnership Against Cyber Threats), which provides training and liaison services to help countries work together to prosecute cyber criminals
- Harmonization of cyber laws across borders
- Training for Thai police in digital forensic techniques. Increasing, scientific evidence is needed for judges to prosecute those accused of cyber crime.
- Establishment of a national response team for cyber-incidents, so that there is an expert single point of contact for liaison with other countries.

Thailand is a member of the United Nations International Telecommunications Union, a body which works closely with global computer security.

Apisakde Kongkangwanchoke, senior partner at BSA Law, believes that efforts to regulate online activity to date have largely failed. "There are vital legal issues of jurisdiction at the heart of the problem, which have hamstrung many efforts to update Thai law for the cyber age so far," Mr. Kongkangwanchoke said.

"We would like to see a far more concerted effort towards resolving these issues. It isn't acceptable to have a platform on which many of us spend most of our lives, to be such a lawless arena," Mr. Kongkangwanchoke finished.
