Wan Nor" admits to concerns about frequent southern fires, which may be linked to the Tak Bai case, which is nearing its statute of limitations. He hopes the police will have to submit the case to the court before 25 Oct. He suggests that the officers' intelligence must be good, and using civilian forces to help is better than the military and police, which can temporarily stop the incident.Mr. Wan Muhammad Noor Matha, President of the House of Representatives, spoke about the daily unrest in the southern border provinces, admitting that he is concerned and wants all parts of Thailand to be peaceful. In the three southern border provinces, there have been efforts from all parties, but it is still not peaceful because there are still differences of opinion between government officials and some citizens. Meanwhile, the government has tried to resolve the issue through peace talks, and Malaysia has agreed to facilitate the talks, but there has been very little progress.In this incident, news is important. If there is good news, the incident can be stopped. In addition, the public must cooperate in maintaining peace because the public knows better.'Using military and police force alone cannot permanently stop the situation. It can only be done temporarily. I would like civil society organizations such as village defense volunteers, kamnans, and village headmen to train these people to work together with the government to maintain peace, which may gradually improve the situation. However, the use of force in combat should only be used in times of war, which is not a war at the moment. It is an incident to create certain situations. It must be appropriately resolved. However, it is important to resolve intelligence and the use of force in the area. Use more than the use of soldiers and police, who are outsiders and are not familiar with the area. We must also hurry to negotiate and reach a conclusion as soon as possible.'When asked whether the Tak Bai case, which is only a few days away from statute of limitatio ns and the frequent incidents, are connected, the Speaker of the House of Representatives said that they may or may not be connected because the Tak Bai case was due to expire a year ago, the situation kept happening. However, there are less than 10 days left before the statute of limitations expires. Everyone wants the relevant authorities to arrest those with arrest warrants and send them to court before October 25. If they can arrest them, the easing of differences of opinion may decrease. They may be related to some extent, but not all, because the unrest had already occurred before, but they have been more frequent recently. It may be because the local people want to show the authorities to be strong in arresting those with arrest warrants. If the police really try, they should be able to make some arrests.Source: Thai News Agency
