Pattani, Thailand – The Thai cabinet on Tuesday revoked emergency law in a district in Pattani province, part of the majority-muslim deep South region, where violence has claimed more than 4,000 lives over the past seven years.
The lifting of the decree in the Mae Lan district adjoining Pattani city, where stability has been restored, was seen as a test case toward revoking the decree in the entire region, which includes Narathiwat, Pattani and Yala provinces, deputy government spokesman Supachai Jaisamut said in Bangkok.
