Mr Chalerm will be accompanied by Lt-Gen Paradorn, and Pol Col Tawee Sodsong, director of the Southern Border Provinces Administration Centre (SBPAC).

Lt-Gen Paradorn said Mr Chalerm, in his capacity as director of the government-appointed committee for implementation of policies and strategies to solve problems in southern border provinces, would seek an exchange of information with Malaysia on security issues, including the sources of finance for insurgents operating in South Thailand.

    All respect to the noble sentiments of Lt-Gen Paradorn but studies show Malaysia defeated the CT's ( Communist Terrorists as they were called) in a 9 year war on the back of a strong focused police effort backed up by determined military.

    It is a fact many CT's including their leaders enjoyed sanctuary in Thailand. IMHO their descendants kept the bitterness alive and laid the seeds for what we see today.
