    We all know it is a poor country but it defies belief how anyone can shoot a woman in the head like that over a love affair, how can the gunman sleep at night ? - hope all the culprits are locked up for life eating shit and getting infected in the cells.
    All over a love affair ? - sickening.

    .

    The chances of their being caught are almost nil. One of thousands of little motorcycles, no plates, two little brown guys wearing full face helmets. They were off the main road and gone within seconds.

    Same MO in Thailand. If they had killed a prominent politician they would be caught. Well, maybe not they but someone would take the fall.

    Lived there on and off for the last 15 years while working around the globe ( house & family in the provinces) & never had a murmer of violence to myself. And as for the gentleman casting a snide comment regards "abysmal cuisine," what do you expect sunshine, Beef bloody Wellington?

    might be true but they are nowhere near as good as thailand who hold a very respectable 3rd in the world for gun homicides

    only south africa and columbia are better at killing people with guns

    They do seem to be the only Asian country that has not developed a palatable cuisine.
    Walk around any cosmopolitan city and you will see Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Indian, Indo, Malay, even Lao and Combo restaurants, but never Flippa ones.

    I hate to say it but this chart is not accurate. The numbers from Mexico and El Salvador should be way higher. Over 16k were murdered in Mexico last year and I am sure most where with firearms.

    Gun homicides and gun ownership listed by country | News | theguardian.com

    this is an article from 2012 but the most recent stats are from 2007

    mexico had some 12,000 homicides that year...52% were by firearm

    unfortunately, thailand's stats are blank

    Friendly Thailand stares down the barrel of rising gun crime

    (Reuters) - Twenty schoolchildren surround a city bus in central Bangkok. Some get on to confront a 16-year-old from a rival school and, within moments, he is shot dead.

    Similar altercations have become a focus of public attention, with shootings affecting seemingly ordinary folk.

    In one incident at a busy intersection, a computer repairman shot dead two people and took a third hostage. Witnesses said it resembled a scene from a Hollywood blockbuster.

    A tourist haven and regional base for multinational companies, Thailand has the highest number of guns in civilian hands in Southeast Asia -- almost four times more than the Philippines, a country notorious for violent gun crime.

    Some blame the rise in gun crime on political instability that has gripped Thailand since a 2006 coup that removed Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. Unrest culminated in a two-month stand-off in 2010 between government troops and "red shirt" protesters backing Thaksin and clashes that killed 91 people.

    Others say that the seeming impunity enjoyed by the wealthy has prompted some to take the law into their own hands.

    "Thailand has become a Wild West movie," says politician Chuwit Kamolvisit, a former massage-parlor tycoon who says he used to pay off local police to run his seedy businesses. "People pull out their guns at a moment's notice."

    Chuwit never owned a gun before this year. He now has three.

    Escalating gun crime could put off companies looking to set up in a country that prides itself on its friendly image as the "Land of Smiles" and is recovering from devastating 2011 floods.

    It could also further dent the idyllic reputation, already hit by crime directed against foreign visitors, that will draw some 20 million tourists this year, a mainstay of the economy.

    Recent incidents include a senator who fatally shot his ex-wife over Sunday dinner, a nightclub shooting spree that left five dead, a Gangnam Style dance-off between rival gangs --inspired by the popular Korean song -- that degenerated into a shootout and 10,000 bullets found at an apartment owned by a former deputy provincial governor.

    All this underscores a growing sense of lawlessness since the 2006 coup. Gun crime in Bangkok has more than doubled and the new police chief, described by a deputy prime minister as a "thug-catching type", has vowed to take weapons off the streets.

    Thailand has the highest gun murder rate in Asia, according to Gun Law and Policy: Firearms and armed violence, country by country, a site hosted by the University of Sydney's School of Public Health in Australia.

    There were 5.3 murders by firearms per 100,000 people in Thailand in 2011, compared to 0.2 in the Philippines, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime reported.

    Suspect pool has grown a bit. I just talked to an old friend who was her neighbor. She had huge fights with her in-laws, who recently caught her banging the boyfriend in their house. Also had a running battle going with several neighbors. Also was a gambler. Guy I was talking to said, "Could have been anyone".

    Making it even less likely the shooters will ever be caught.
