The only curfew that will work is a 24hr one on Chalerm getting involved.

A curfew won't do much to stop the insurgency. In fact, a curfew could make the situation more favorable for the insurgents, i.e, they would know anyone moving around at night, or during curfew, would most-likely be military, or government officials. The insurgents have to be dealt with by using superior military tactics.

Good expression TO the best of there ability.But that is not good enough is it the killing is still going on.How a curfew will help anyone is behold me.Do they think those planting bombs will bother about a curfew.There stealth is the reason they are able to continue with these killings.It will hit the innocent locals more by restricting there daily lives.

"At this stage, the committee should be allowed to look into details, including the number of people who would be involved and the equipment to be used. If necessary, cooperation will be sought from the local people." Said Our Mrs PM

The terrorism problem didn't start yesterday, but longtime ago. The PENTAGON II should know all details already. It seems Our Mrs PM has no leadership, she cannot take decision about urgent matter...
