Paper peace doves fall over southern Thailand as violence continues
"PATTANI, Thailand (AFP) - Fifty aircraft scattered 120 million paper birds across southern Thailand in a peace gesture marred by new killings in the troubled Muslim-majority region.
The airdrop, to mark revered King Bhumibol Adulyadej's 77th birthday, sparked a party mood across parts of the region but has drawn scorn from government critics who said it disguised a failure to end a separatist insurgency that has left more than 550 people dead this year.
The day-long low-altitude bird-bombing was designed to show unity between Buddhist and Muslim Thais and to condemn violence, according to premier Thaksin Shinawatra who promoted the bird drop.
A fleet of military and civil aircraft and helicopters, carrying 50,000 birds a time, took off just after 9:00 am (0200 GMT) to fly sorties over four affected provinces of Yala, Narathiwat, Pattani and Songkhla.
Thaksin's idea was enthusiastically embraced by Thais with instructions on how to fold them posted at department stores and collecting bins left outside offices. Birds were also sent from Japan, the US and China, according to reports.
Officials concerned about a litter problem offered rice and eggs for villagers to collect the falling birds, which included one made and signed by Thaksin promising a scholarship to the finder."
