Defamation normally means a untrue statement not a judgment.

  Not really following. Defamation can result in a prison sentence in Thailand. It's both a criminal and civil offense.

    Saying ‘I don’t like their food’ == judgment. Saying ‘their food isn’t Thai food’ when it is == defamation. Saying ‘I found a cockroach in the food’ when you didn’t == defamation. The issue in Thailand, is all three will get you in deep trouble if discussing the royal family, or other topics yes?

      Ah I see. Sorry I confused judgement with legal judgement.

        I think it could probably have been more clearly put as ‘opinion’ - aka someone’s individual judgement, as compared to a statement of fact.
