webfact Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 By Thai PBS World It’s been more than a month since a sacked police officer went on a killing spree in the northeastern province of Nong Bua Lamphu, yet the families of the victims are still struggling with their grief. “They cry. They still miss their loved ones,” said Chittree Pongsrichai, chief of Nong Bua Lamphu Home for Children and Families. One man moved home to a farm so his surroundings would not remind him of his dead child. In the same neighborhood, a 74-year-old woman bursts into tears every time somebody asks about her family’s empty buffalo pen. Her 53-year-old son, Waranchai Prapaspong, used to raise five buffaloes, but after he was shot dead in the October 6 massacre, the family had no choice but to sell the cattle. Psychological aid After 37 people – mainly young children – were shot or knifed to death in Nong Bua Lamphu’s Uthai Sawan subdistrict by the ex-cop, government agencies and civil networks came forward to offer help to the bereaved.

Popular Post seedy Posted November 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2022 They will carry this in their Hearts until they die - that is how people 'Cope' Waiting for the first post using the nonsensical word 'Closure' Door close, books close. If you EVER had this happen to you then realize that it will never end. The most you can Hope for is acceptance for the huge hole in your Heart. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gandtee Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 They will have to cope in the same way as those whose loved ones died, and some still in hospital due to the Mountain B fire that has now reopened under a new name, on part of the same land .????

Cake Monster Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I personally would think that these Folk will never " cope " with the enormity of the killings within their Community. Why is the question even being asked ? " Thai PBS World " should just do the honourable thing, and leave these poor Folk alone to grieve in their own way.

seedy Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 The media uses these cases to generate revenue. That is why they will not do the right thing and let these poor families alone with their grief. They have no Honor. They have no Sympathy. They have no Compassion. They are leeches sucking on the blood of victims and their families. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't generate revenue, money money money - that's all that counts. Edited November 21, 2022 by Artisi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Dude Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Sadly, this sort of terrible event just goes to show how short and indifferent the news cycle is now. Almost as if it's ancient history now (same with the Terminal 21 massacre in Korat) and absolutely nothing has changed, no accountability at all, with none of the problems addressed... just a case of contrite posturing for a short time and then it's the "move along, nothing to see here" BS.

Stargeezr Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Just a note to posters, the age of most of these very young children, is not the same as some other mass killings. Yes these children were very young and did not have a chance to live a good or great life. Harvey M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
