Thai peace: Coalition advances plans for security in Thailand’s deep South

[webfact]

 

The working group on building Thai peace in the deep South, comprised of the eight-party coalition, recently convened for its second meeting at the Prachachat Party headquarters. The coalition alliance, led by the Move Forward Party (MFP), formed six groups to address major problems in Thailand during the transition of power for the new government.

 

The meeting focused on the development work and policies for Yala, Pattani, Narathiwat, and four districts in Songkhla, which the coalition aims to implement within the first 100 days of Pita Limjaroenrat’s government. The group also discussed the security measures and special laws that are enforced in the South, with the goal of restoring safety and Thai peace for residents.

 

“We agreed that it is time to return safety to people. We will ask the new government to see whether the enforcement of martial law and the emergency decree is still necessary for the region,” said Romadon Panjor, a representative of the MFP.

I'd make s deal with them - no more attacks, murders , shootings or bombs for a year and we will take off the emergency decree. Never work though, as this religion just wont abide by it
