Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

He immediately forwarded the points to the Thai Embassy in Geneva. However, Peerasak said that the Royal Thai Government (RTG) has not yet established a final position on formation of a working group in Geneva to discuss reform of the UN Human Rights Commission. He refused to speculate how Thailand would vote on the proposed resolution establishing a working group if it is presented to a formal meeting of the UN Economic and Social Council (ESOSOC). Peerasak said that the MFA is still listening and weighing different points of view on the issue. Poloff pressed and Peerasak conceded the point that reform of the UN Human Rights Commission will eventually have to be settled in New York. BOYCE
