School teachers in southern Thailand will be allowed to carry guns, because local representatives of the Religion of Peace keep murdering them.
School teachers in Thailand’s troubled southern provinces will be allowed to carry guns, the government has said.
The move is one of a series of measures designed to keep education staff from leaving the violence-hit south.
Many of the region’s teachers are thought to have either stopped working or demanded a transfer from the area.
More than 700 people, including at least 24 teachers, have been killed since January 2004 in unrest which the government blames on Islamic militants.
By this single act Thailand has done more to counter the threat of Islamism than all of Western Europe.
