Srettha vows action on guns


The country’s prime minister vowed “preventive measures” after a shooting at a Bangkok shopping mall left two people dead and raised fresh questions about the kingdom’s gun control.

Shoppers yesterday returned in dribs and drabs as the Siam Paragon mall reopened less than 24 hours after the shooting – Thailand’s third high-profile deadly gun attack in four years.
