Thai border residents are more likely traumatized by the PAD than the fight with Cambodia

Border residents suffer mental trauma

Many residents living along the volatile border northeastern with Cambodia are suffering from psychological trauma as a result of continuing fighting, Public Health Minister Jurin Laksanavisit said on Tuesday.

The ministry’s 72 mobile medical units had reported that 1,964 of 4,813 people who underwent mental checks were experiencing stress. Of these, 638 had severe depression caused by the border clashes, and 10 had suicidal tendencies, said Mr Jurin.

The mobile medical units have been deployed to treat about 10,000 people from Surin, Si Sa Ket and Ubon Ratchathani provinces seeking refuge at temporary shelters in their provinces since fighting began between Thai and Cambodian troops on Feb 4.

Mr Jurin said doctors had already treated those with severe mental trauma and health volunteers would regularly visit them at their homes.

    every poor Thai people as second class in the country.
    The Thaksin supporters or Red Shirts are here.
    The poor and ignorant people are easy to lead.
    They trust and love
    Thaksin so much.
    Abhisit let these
    poor Khmer people

    The Khmer Thai soldiers,and Khmer
    Thai villagers are
    getting and injured.
    How sad Khmer both

    Some Khmer people
    said,"Khmer Thai
    were bad,after Khmer Rouge defeated it".
    How about Pol Pot
    regime,they killed
    too,not just bad of Khmer Surin.
    So,please all Khmer
    people forgive and
    forget the past.
    Now we should learn
    to love,care,respect
    ,and help each other
    .
    would Khmer people
    want to be Khmer
    empire again?
    We can have a dream.
    We will have a dream
    We have a dream and
    free at last.

    My beloved Khmers/ Thai in Surin, Si Sa Ket and Ubon Ratchathani provinces,

    We, Khmers oversears love all of you. We know your daily life situation.

    As you my know, this war has been caused by Yellow Shirt and Abhisit group.

    Abhisit was instaled by Yellow shirt. Two yellow shirts are in Cambodian Jail. Both, Abhisit and Yellow shirt are very mad. To obey Yellow shirt and need their support to stay in office, Abhist and his group must provoke the war with Cambodia.

    Please tell your sons, relatives, and friends in the Thai army to throw the guns away and run back home. Don't die for Yellow shirt and Abhisit.

    Please call Cambodian army where are the positon of Thai soldiers along the border.

    My beloved Khmers/ Thai in Surin, Si Sa Ket and Ubon Ratchathani provinces,
    Thai soldiers use all of you along the border as human shield to deter Cambodian army from attacking Thai soldiers targets.

    We, Khmers overseas love all of you. We know your daily life situation.

    As you know, this war has been caused by Yellow Shirt and Abhisit group.

    UN called all parties to UNSC. Cambodia won.

    UN asked ASEAN to mediate. Cambodia won.

    Abhisit was installed by Yellow shirt. Two yellow shirts are in Cambodian Jail. Both, Abhisit and Yellow shirt are very mad. To obey Yellow shirt and need their support to stay in office, Abhist and his group must provoke the war with Cambodia.

    Please tell your sons, relatives, and friends in the Thai army to throw the guns away and run back home. Don't die for Yellow shirt and Abhisit. They use all of you along the border as human shield to deter Cambodian army from attacking Thai soldiers targets. Abhisit is an Asian HITLER.

    Please call Cambodian army where are the position of Thai soldiers along the border.
