People in Thailand’s Deep South are pleased with the relatively peaceful situation in the strife-torn region during this year’s Islamic Holy month of Ramadan, which ended yesterday (Monday). The peace was made possible by the temporary ceasefire agreed between the Thai military and the Barisan Revolusi Nasional (BRN) separatist group.

 

Only one violent incident occurred, on April 15th, in which a villager was killed and three government officials were injured in double explosions in the Sai Buri district of Pattani province. Another separatist group, the Pattani United Liberation Organisation (PULO), which opted out of the peace process, claimed responsibility.

General Wallop Raksanoh, chief of the Thai peace talk delegation, said that, although Ramadan has ended, the temporary ceasefire remains in force until May 14th.

Most countries a period that short would be called 'on going terrorism', but hey if delusional thinking makes them feel better
