Bangkok, Nov 9: Eight bombs exploded almost simultaneously at car and motorcycle showrooms in restive southern Thailand on Thursday, wounding nine people, police said.
Attackers posing as customers planted explosives inside cars or near motorcycles at Honda, Nissan, Chevrolet, Mazda, Ford and Isuzu dealerships and at two motorcycle showrooms, Yala police Lt. Col. Sakkarin Bamphensamai said.
Police Col. Phumphet Phiphatpetchphoom said that initial reports showed that nine people were wounded, reports AP.
Separatist groups are believed to be responsible for the attacks which mirror a coordinated bombing campaign two months ago; more than 20 banks were hit in and around Yala in those attacks.
Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont has visited the region twice in the past week, and has made a number of concessions to Muslim and separatist groups.
More than 1700 people have been killed in almost three years of separatist insurgency in the region where 80 per cent of the people are Muslim and speak a Malay dialect. The majority of Thailand's population is Buddhist.
