Reporters Without Borders has released its annual ranking and report on the state of press freedom everywhere. Look at countries with more press freedom than Thailand within our region. That would cause next year's international press freedom report to list Thailand at or near North Korea. This year's version refers to junta chief and Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha as a "press freedom predator". In addition to RSF, the annual Freedom House report on world press freedom slags off Thailand.
