Petition:

Thai Government should refuse Philip Morris sponsorship

View Code Thailand - Globalink. Learn more about View Code Thailand
Target: Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Health
Context:
Recently Philip Morris (Thailand) Ltd. donated 3 million Baht (about $75,000 US) for two English language teaching programs on Channel 11, a Thai Government TV channel. Philip Morris has also donated funds to other causes through a government auxiliary organization of the Interior Ministry.
Talking points:
1. Sponsorship is an advertising strategy
2. Advertising and sponsorship are banned by law in Thailand
3. Indirect methods of buying favor by tobacco companies is misrepresentation and is against corporate ethics
4. Government agencies must immediately stop accepting sponsorship/funding and prevent further such actions
