NONG BUA LAM PHU: When a former police officer in the rural Northeast shot and stabbed more than two dozen children as they napped in their nursery in October, the episode became the worst mass shooting by a lone attacker in Thailand’s history.
After the attack — which killed 36 people, 24 of them children — authorities ordered law enforcement agencies to tighten gun ownership rules in the country, which has more guns than anywhere else in Southeast Asia.
