Tailandia - USTR announced possible GSP suspension for Thailand

On 25 October, the United States announced a six-month window to Thailand to remedy fundamental labour rights issues before the GSP trade preference with the US could be renewed. The possible cancellation is based on the complaint filed by the AFL-CIO for the longstanding failure of the Thai government to bring the domestic laws, namely the SELRA, in compliance with ILO Convention No. 87, systematic anti-trade union discrimination, and the denial of migrant workers’ right to form their own trade unions for collective bargaining.
