WASHINGTON: Donald Trump will suspend trade preferences for Thailand's seafood industry after it failed to take steps to improve worker rights, dealing a blow to the multi-billion dollar sector.
"I have determined that Thailand is not taking steps to afford workers in Thailand internationally recognized worker rights ... it is appropriate to suspend the duty-free treatment," Trump said in the letter. The US suspension comes despite the European Union recently striking Thailand from its warning list in January, seeing efforts made by the government to tackle illegal fishing.
