the right way - November

Air Chief Marshal Kongsak Wantana, Minister of the
Interior, agrees with the idea of Mr. Kosin Ketthong,
the Assistant of Interior Minister, on the way of
solving problems in the three southern provinces.
That is, to move people from the Northeast to replace
population from the area including to arrange draftees
to be ordained in the abandoned temples.
It seems a suggestion that does not understand the
cause and problem so this cannot be the right way
to solve things.
There is some group trying to to terrorize and separate,
but no matter the quality or quantity of the movement,
these people cannot succed from killing and terrorizing.
The cause of the violence and unrest are extending
and increasing in level and area and the important
factor is that most people in the area do not trust
the government officers. The government officers
do not trust by people because they do not understand
the root and culture so they do not perceive the
movement of the terrorists.
As they understand and be in line of the truth,
people will cooperate, and the authorities will
be able to get useful information, solve the problem,
and stop the violence.
If the government realizes that it is a part of
extending and prolonging the southern problems,
it will realize that the priority is to solve problems
at the level of the government and officers.
Studying the truth in the area, the truth of life,
culture and religion, the source of the problem
can be understood clearly and the government will
be able to propose the right solution and be in
line with the truth.
It is important not to suggest nonsensical ideas
that make the problem extended. If we do not know
and do not study, cooperating to solve problems
will be in turmoil.
