Narathiwat schools reopen

State schools in the southernmost province of Narathiwat re-opened on Tuesday after striking teachers accepted improved measures for their safety following the lethal attacks on their colleagues last week.

Education administrators from several districts announced that 378 schools in Narathiwat Province had rsumed classes and that security forces were implementing new safety procedures.

Chatsuda Nilsuwan, 32-year-old female teacher at Ban Ta-ngo School, was shot dead by a motorcycle pillion rider last Monday.

Teerapol Choosongsang, 52, a male teacher at Ban Borkoh School, was badly wounded when shot twice last Tuesday by four men who approached him on motorbikes.

Armed forces have now introduced stricter safety procedures to protect educators from terrorists.
