Additional Information

Update posted by Patchrawut Vajarodaya

I'm launching a new personal campaign since the current Fight against sexual assault in Thai conscripts have caught the Thailand's military government attention.

They have asked me nicely on the phone to stop the campaign which I agreed to their demand but will still press ahead.

Usually, if the MV becomes viral, their next step would be armed home visit with threat to my life. Then they will use the Computer Crime Act which pretty much covers anything that is on the internet that they don't like but with this violation, it is not enough to seek asylum anywhere. Or they could skip this step altogether.

Since the court system is very slow, the next step for them is another home visit before the court date but they will take me to a camp in an undisclosed location for 'attitude adjustment'. Most people got killed or disappeared in this step. It's like North Korea lite.

If they somehow decide not to kill me, my case will be sent to the court system which no lawyer would dare to represent me so I will definitely go to the official prison. So, the new personal campaign that I just launched, the fund will be used after the MV is done and released. I estimated that I can only afford 200,000 euros if I sell everything I have, I'm still short on 150,000 euros + 25,000 euros in Portuguese government fees and legal fees.

There are other cheaper options in the Caribbean but it is not a safe option.

There has never been any Thai government conducting extrajudicial killing in developed EU member states or in the US. The stake is too high for them. If you have any advice on this new campaign, I'm all ears. But I am not going to stop my project. NEVER. It is worth dying for. Still, I'd like to live for another 30-40 years to see how the world will progress and make more impact. Thank you and best regards, Patchrawut Jake Vajarodaya
