184 teachers killed in southern insurgency

By The Nation

 

Southern insurgents have killed 184 teachers in three southern border provinces since the violence flared up in 2004, a senior teacher said on Tuesday.

 

Boonsom Thongsriprai, chairman of the federation of teachers in the three southern provinces, also told a press conference to mark National Teachers’ Day that the government had not yet compensated the dead teachers’ families.

 

He said the federation has been calling on the government to pay Bt4 million for each teacher lost in the insurgency, in accordance with a Cabinet resolution in 2013. However, the money has not yet reached their families.

 

Boonsom said the government should speed up the process.

"By the end of the film, what most leaves an impression are the myriad characters and their catalogue of injustices: personal stories of torture (a senator wrongly imprisoned for two years as a suspected Al Qaeda cell member), of grief (a father whose son died in detention), and of the long-simmering anger in Thailand's predominantly Muslim south."

Seems the film is also a moving view of Muslims in their homeland being suppressed by a hostile Buddhist nation.
