People in the southernmost district of Sungai Kolok in Narathiwat are still waiting for a visit by Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, Sungai Kolok mayoress Suchada Phannara said on Friday.

A series of bomb blasts that hit Sungai Kolok on Sept 16 had severely affected the economy of the border district and the confidence of the local people. Sungai Kolok people have been waiting for Ms Yingluck to visit them and listen to their problems, said Mrs Suchada.

The big bomb attacks had destroyed confidence of the locals and foreign tourists, particularly those from Malaysia, in the state's security measures. There is a need to restore confidence as Sungai Kolok is a main economic town on the Thailand-Malaysia border, she added.
