BANGKOK -- Cal-Comp Electronics says the Thai government's state of emergency has not affected the EMS provider's operations.

Local security forces have used threats of guns, water cannons and tear gas to break up ongoing protests demanding the resignation of Thai Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej. At least 78 persons have been reported to have died in the riots.

Cal-Comp, the world's 14th largest EMS company, has two production sites near Bangkok, totaling six factories.
