Now the whole country and the rest of the world know that sadness is here. How would it be to stop be sad, stand up and do something about a growing problem.
But on the other hand. Theese activities are maybe not considered to hurt the image of Thailand.

Another misleading headline.

Somchai Tongchan was taking his son to school in his truck.

 

R.I.P.  for the victims and let's home the injured recover soon.

Very sad, but typical of these cowards picking soft targets, wherever in the world..:sad:

Cheer up. Maybe ISIL will take notice of the weak Malay-Thai Muslim insurgency to eject the Buddhist Thai government from the Islamic homeland of the Kingdom of Patanni, and provide sufficient recruitment and heavy weapons to take on the Thai military directly.

As we've seen in the past, Thai military doesn't do well on its own when on equal footing with military opposition. Which raises the question as to why after decades of insurgent attacks the military is incapable of completely suppressing the insurgency. Unless maybe it has reason to tolerate a weak insurgency in order to continue its active suppression of the Malay-Thais, ie., the only area of the Thai nation that a State of Emergency still exists.

Instead of army harassing tourists, send 50,000 down south and root out the bastard militants!

You don't have much understanding of the situation down there do you!
