  1. With the amendments to the Thai penal code and the enactment of the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2003, it is hoped that we will be able to become party to all other pending international conventions and protocols relating to terrorism by early next year. Additionally, Thailand has played an active role with regard to capacity-building in the South-East Asian region, particularly in the area of extradition, within the legal issues working group of the Bali Regional Ministerial Meeting on Counter-Terrorism. Furthermore, Thailand has supported the conclusion of treaties on mutual legal assistance in criminal matters among the countries members of the Association of South-East Asian Nations, which enhances international cooperation and mechanisms in combating international terrorism.

  2. In combating the violence and terror in today's world, more importance should be given to the cultivation of a culture of peace, understanding and tolerance, both within and among countries and their peoples, in order to make it possible for everyone to learn to live with one another's differences and eventually to enjoy the fruits that world peace and harmony can offer. Before closing, my delegation is pleased to report that on 29 September 2004 Thailand deposited with the United Nations its instrument of ratification of the 1999 Convention for the Suppression of the Financing of Terrorism.

  3. First-hand information was provided and exchanged by the two sides, and intensive discussions on cooperation were held in a frank manner. The visit has indeed enhanced the level of understanding and cooperation between Thailand and the Al Qaeda/Taliban sanctions Committee in their efforts to ensure full and effective implementation of resolution 1267 (1999). My delegation would like to stress that measures against terrorism adopted by States need at all times to be in compliance with international law, particularly international human rights, refugee and humanitarian law. In order for the fight against terrorism to be comprehensive, it is necessary that we also tackle the symptoms and root causes of terrorism, such as poverty, lack of development and basic necessities, and human rights abuses.

  4. Thailand also believes that intensified contacts and dialogue with the States Members of the Organization will contribute significantly to the work of the committees and will enhance the efficiency of Member States themselves in their implementation of relevant resolutions adopted by the Security Council. That is why Thailand is pleased to have received a visit from Ambassador Heraldo Munoz, Chairman of the Al Qaeda/Taliban sanctions Committee, and his delegation, which took place only last week. During that visit, a number of meetings requested by the Chairman of the Committee were organized, including meetings with the Thai Prime Minister, the Foreign Minister, the Minister of Interior and other high-level officials of the competent authorities dealing with the issue of terrorism.

  5. In that regard, my delegation would like to assure the Council of its continued willingness to closely cooperate with the Committee and its Executive Directorate; we look forward to the CTED becoming fully operational in the near future. Thailand attaches great importance to the work of all the committees established by the relevant resolutions of the Security Council in its fight against terrorism and thus has always extended its full and timely cooperation to those various committees, which have different mandates but related objectives.

  6. We also welcome the timely revitalization of the work and structure of the Committee, particularly the establishment of the CTED as a special political mission, under the policy guidance of the Committee plenary, with the aim of enhancing the Committee's ability to monitor the implementation of resolution 1373 (2001) and to effectively continue the capacity- building work in which it is engaged. Such revitalization is imperative in View of the more proactive role assumed by the Committee in its dialogue with Member States, in evaluating the implementation of resolution 1373 (2001), in facilitating technical assistance to Member States and in promoting closer cooperation and coordination with international, regional and subregional organizations.

  7. We particularly welcome the ninth preambular paragraph of the resolution, which emphasizes the need to broaden understanding among civilizations in an effort to prevent the indiscriminate targeting of cultures and religions, and to address the full range of issues, including development concerns, all of which are necessary for sustaining the widest possible fight against terrorism. In this connection, my delegation would like to commend the CTC for a job well done since it was established by Security Council resolution 1373 (2001).

  8. In this connection, my delegation wishes to welcome the recently adopted Security Council resolution 1566 (2004), which, inter alia, establishes a working group consisting of all members of the Security Council to consider and submit recommendations to the Council on practical measures to be imposed upon individuals, groups and entities involved in or associated with terrorist activities, other than those designated by the Al Qaeda/Taliban sanctions Committee, and to consider the possibility of setting up an international fund, financed by voluntary contributions and seized terrorist assets, to compensate victims of terrorist acts and their families.

  9. First of all, let me join previous speakers in thanking Ambassador Denisov for his detailed presentation on the work of the Counter-Terrorism Committee (CTC). We also thank the Executive Director of the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED) for his briefing. Terrorism in all its forms and manifestations constitutes one of the most serious threats to international peace and security. All acts of terrorism are criminal and unjustifiable, regardless of their motivation, whenever and by whomsoever committed. Victims of terrorist attacks and their families deserve our deepest sympathy and condolences. To combat such a threat in today's world, international cooperative efforts, particularly within the United Nations, are needed more than ever.
