A lawyer has petitioned the Norwegian government to pressure Norway's Telenor, the parent of Total Access Communication (DTAC), to abort the planned merger with True Corporation, saying it violates Thai laws and Thailand's constitution.
The petition was lodged by Somboon Boonyapirom via the Norwegian embassy in Bangkok on Thursday.
He also called on the Norwegian government to deliberate whether the merger was in line with the UN's guiding principles concerning business and human rights (UNGPs).
