    Its sad that The south is considered part of Thailand yet it is pretty much ignored .The Army presence down there serves as nothing more than a target for the separatists to bomb and shoot at . Most couldnt even tell you what the fight is about .If Thailand values the south then talk to the people there and find out what they need and want to end this daily massacre or let them join Malaysia .
