Sixteen insurgents are killed in an attack by terrorists on an army base in the south of Thailand. Deaths in the region, due to terrorism, have risen to 5000 since the start of the current insurrection in 2004.
For a report on the latest attack see the report in the Bangkok Post.
Southern Thailand is one of the world's hotspots for terrorism and one of the most neglected by the 'Western' press.
My novel, Apsaras I, Shangri La, spotlights the problem as a Muslim woman seeks help in a refuge for disadvantaged women. She is married to a terrorist leader and her arrival sparks conflicting emotions in those who run the refuge. Should they turn her out and save the refuge or take her in as their consciences dictate? Read for yourself in my book, available as a hardback or as an ebook on Amazon at:
