Thai Teachers To Be Allowed Guns

School teachers in Thailand’s troubled southern provinces will be allowed to carry guns, the government has said.
The move is one of a series of measures designed to keep education staff from leaving the violence-hit south.
Many of the region’s teachers are thought to have either stopped working or demanded a transfer from the area.
More than 700 people, including at least 24 teachers, have been killed since January 2004 in unrest which the government blames on Islamic militants.
