sustainable solutions to address the problem at root causes <strong>and</strong><br />

putting an end to the losses on both sides. However, it must be<br />

stressed that such dialogue is not a negotiation but the focus will<br />

be on creating mutual underst<strong>and</strong>ing.<br />

2) Build capacity <strong>and</strong> enhance readiness <strong>of</strong> local communities <strong>and</strong><br />

civil societies, enabling the people to have an equal access to the<br />

state’s justice process <strong>and</strong> public welfare <strong>and</strong> opening spaces for<br />

the use <strong>of</strong> peaceful means <strong>and</strong> initiation <strong>of</strong> activities that can<br />

contribute to quelling <strong>of</strong> the unrest <strong>and</strong> creation <strong>of</strong> a sustainable<br />

peace based on broad-based participation <strong>of</strong> local people. This<br />

recommendation is based on the idea that local problems must be<br />

solved by local people.<br />

3) Jointly create a peace network for the southern border (PeaceNet)<br />

that puts emphasis on participation by various sectors to<br />

exchange learning <strong>and</strong> information <strong>and</strong> share experiences about<br />

solutions to different problems <strong>and</strong> collective use <strong>of</strong> peaceful<br />

means as well as support in terms <strong>of</strong> body <strong>of</strong> knowledge,<br />

resources <strong>and</strong> work morale, thus energizing collective efforts to<br />

solve problems.<br />

4) Push forward the establishment <strong>of</strong> the truth <strong>and</strong> reconciliation<br />

commission to perform as a mechanism to create justice <strong>and</strong> trust<br />

in the areas. The commission consists <strong>of</strong> representatives from all<br />

relevant sectors that will collectively seek <strong>and</strong> reveal the facts<br />

about violent situations <strong>and</strong> rumors in the areas. Its aim is to<br />

uncover factual information <strong>and</strong> promote correct underst<strong>and</strong>ing<br />

among all sectors, thus leading to justice <strong>and</strong> mutual trust in the<br />

areas.<br />

5) Formulate social communication strategies to enhance<br />

underst<strong>and</strong>ing about the situation <strong>and</strong> the facts in the areas <strong>and</strong><br />

to signal peaceful co-existence between the people in a larger<br />

society <strong>and</strong> the people in the locality as Thai citizens on the basis<br />

<strong>of</strong> diversity <strong>of</strong> multi-cultural societies.
