After a run of violent incidents in the three Deep South border provinces, the PM held a second security meeting on 25 Aug. The cabinet secretary says the cabinet meeting in Songkhla on 31 Aug–1 Sep is still on. No new business rules, taxes or permits were announced. For a Songkhla or Deep South SME, the practical point is to watch for any travel or curfew changes around the cabinet visit and to keep an eye on the security situation in your area.
