http://sungting.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
My Life My Way 思维笔记. A memo of my life, my feelings, my thoughts and my ways.这是有关我的生活,有关我所思所感的记录。。。 Monday, September 24, 2007. I went back home two weeks ago. Before I left home for the airport, my mum suddenly hugged me and told me that she loved me very much. I was a little shocked, because she is a traditional Chinese woman, and in the past, it was always me, who was once a wayward daughter in her eyes, that would do this to her. Some of the princes and princesses. Likewise, as time passes and before...

Betong Today 勿洞今日: TRIP TO KHOK CHANG
http://betongtoday.blogspot.com/2007/09/trip-to-khok-chang.html
Saturday, September 1, 2007. TRIP TO KHOK CHANG. Khokchang township surrounding by hills. Unexpectedly, I had to take the Betong-Yala highway to visit a new friend Ju, Mayor of Khok Chang, a small township 60 km away from Betong, half way to Yala. Just after I got into the car, I was told that there were two gun shootings in a place in the same district, Than To. My other three friends in the car were equipped with either bullet proof jacket or a gun and I had only an umbrella! Did I feel the tension?

Betong Today 勿洞今日: CHAT WITH ARMY
http://betongtoday.blogspot.com/2007/09/chat-with-army.html
Saturday, September 1, 2007. Rest and relaxed in a nice environment. The mixed-cultural design guardhouse. In Malaysia, I rarely see soldiers, let alone chatting with them. In Thailand, especially in Southern Thailand, the soldiers are commonly seen. Today, after my shooting lesson, I walked across the road with a friend to chat with the soldiers. The weather was cool and they were relaxed. The armies carry M16 rifles and each riffle carries 30 bullets. The bullet proof jackets they wear seem bulky a...

http://betongtoday.blogspot.com/2007/09/betong-to-hadyai-by-malaysian-route.html
Saturday, September 1, 2007. BETONG TO HADYAI BY MALAYSIAN ROUTE. Pass by Baling Hill, the limestone outcrops in Baling Town, a little town famous for the 1955 peace talks between Malaysan Communist Party and the Government. After the tragedy of the van ambush, more and more Betong folks are going to Hadyai via Malaysia. Currently there is a shuttle bus traveling from Betong to Hadyai every day which costs 260 baht per trip. It is usually full and one has to make early reservation to get a seat. BETONG T...

Betong Today 勿洞今日: FUEL ANXIETY
http://betongtoday.blogspot.com/2007/09/fuel-anxiety.html
Saturday, September 1, 2007. After all the roaring, crying, protests of the Southerners, the government seems incapable of controlling the restive situation which is getting worse. The violence has been escalating and the effects and threats are spreading. On and off there are cases of road blocks, not only causing inconvenience to the daily life and business operations, but also causing people to be in a constant state of anxiety. I miss the weekends where I could drive along the countryside. …...

http://betongtoday.blogspot.com/2007/09/after-chinese-new-year-bomb-blast.html
Saturday, September 1, 2007. After the Chinese New Year bomb blast, despite all the negative response and advice, I decided to go with a “long time no see” hometown friend Phil, to visit Pattani, the Muslim centre of the South. After all the discouraging remarks of our trip to Pattani the next day, I decided to take the risk as Phil promised to take care of me should anything happen . J. Equipped with a borrowed bullet proof jacket, I left Phil in the car to have a quick tour and take snapshots of the to...
