...Most of the killings have been blamed on separatist Muslim insurgents, while others are thought to be the work of Buddhist vigilantes. All in all, it's something that Thai tourist authorities would prefer to gloss over in their posters touting palm-fringed beaches [EM] even though those white-sand idylls aren't located that far away from the three violence-wracked provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat...
