The Necessity of Capital Punishment in Thailand

The death penalty refers to the execution of a person as a penalty for a criminal act by legal proceedings. This method has changed over the centuries, but its way of thinking remains unchanged, a way to punish a felony. On average, the murder rate in Thailand is 5 to 10 (5 to 10 people) per 100,000 people (50,000 people) per year, so if you do mathematics, in Thailand there will be approximately 350,000 occurrences per year You can see. Thousands of murders (3,150 to 6,300)

Abusers believe that the death penalty is the most serious violation of human rights, as human rights violations are the most important and the death penalty infringes it, it is not necessary and it hurts the condemned psychological torture. Human rights activists oppose the death penalty and call it "cruel and inhumane and punishing punishment." Amnesty International views this as "ultimate irreversible human rights denial". Most countries, including almost all the first world countries, have abolished capital punishment or practical death penalty. Notable exceptions are the United States, China, India, Japan, and most Muslim countries. America is the only Western country still using the death penalty

Bhutan, Cambodia, Thailand recognize that Buddhism is a religion of the nation and use Buddhist way to solve the death penalty. Cambodia is the only country officially banning the use of the death penalty, but Thailand or Bhutan has not used the death penalty for many years. The population of Thailand is about 63 million, 95% of which are in seat seats according to Buddhism, which is the center of Thai culture and identity. It is observed that few Buddhist priests and authorities filed lawsuit against the death penalty. Many monks in Thailand are unintentionally tolerant. This is because they are from rural areas of the country that strongly support the death penalty and are not urgent problems, lack of extensive discussion, or lack of information because there is absolutely no power.

There is no doubt that there is no problem other than capital punishment in the field of justice. Today, most people are skeptical about the need to use the death penalty as a punishment for committing a deadly crime. In addition, many people believe that this punishment is not suitable for a civilized, technologically advanced society living in the 21st century. They believe that the death penalty should be banned immediately. In addition, supporters of the death sentence provide effective discussion. First, they point out that the death penalty can not be regarded as moral and humanitarian punishment. Second, such punishment does not affect reducing the number of crimes. Third, for taxpayers, the death penalty is too high. These are the main reasons for banning the death penalty. Therefore, the US government needs to pay close attention to this problem.
