Thailand wants to control the filming of boys rescued from the cave

Culture Minister Vira Rodzopoanatar said that at a Cabinet meeting next week he would suggest the creation of a special committee to oversee everything related to filming, documentaries and videos of 12 boys and their football coach. Almost three weeks ago, reports AP.

The Thai authorities, after the return of the boys, blamed several media, mostly foreign, for ignoring the official advice to leave boys alone for at least a month. Vishan Kre Ngam, vice president of the Thai government, said that officials from the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security have ordered that young footballers and those associated with them should not be encouraged to do so.

He warned foreign media that they could face criminal prosecution, even if they accidentally violated child protection laws.

Visan, who is considered a leading legal expert on the Thai power hunt, said boys have the right to sign contracts for their own benefit, but noted that the government committee will provide advice "as that manager "without seeking profits for himself.

A senior Thai official said the government was "very scared" that some of the relatives of the disturbances through which the boys in the cave would have been forced to sign contracts "because once the contract is signed, that person can not do anything else, and that is why she takes the help of someone who understands in the law.
