    "According to Deep South Watch, which monitors the southern violence, more than 5,000 people have been killed and over 9,000 injured in more than 11,000 incidents, or about 3.5 a day, in the three southernmost provinces and the four districts of Songkhla since the violence erupted afresh in January 2004." Thanks so much for the statistics. Very difficult to post any positives isnt' it PTP.
    Please drop the insurgents title and use criminals/murderes. Perhaps something going on in the background that the readers will never know about(due to scanty followup)but they are criminals.
