TRAFFIC explained to me that this report was not
intended to be a comprehensive study covering most
aspects of the ivory industry in Thailand, but rather,
‘It was our initial intention to assess ivory turnover in
key locations in Bangkok, thus the reason for repeated
monthly surveys in key markets’ (TRAFFIC, in litt.,
August 2014). In addition, TRAFFIC explained
that, ‘…the Thai government has articulated policy
commitments to CITES concerning the future of ivory
trade in their country and our report was focused
upon examining that commitment since it was made
at the last Conference of the Parties in terms of retail
availability of ivory in Bangkok, which we feel is
representative of general ivory trade and market
patterns across the country.’None of the objectives
communicated to me by TRAFFIC are contained in
the report itself, but with TRAFFIC’s clarification
my apparently misplaced criticisms above should be
disregarded.
