Condolence Letter from Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong to Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Thailand Prayut Chan-o-cha

7 October 2022

Dear Prime Minister Prayut,

           I was shocked and saddened to learn of the mass shooting that took place in Nong Bua Lam Phu on 6 October 2022. This senseless act of violence took many innocent lives, most of whom were children. On behalf of the Singapore Government, I offer my deepest condolences to the bereaved families of the victims in this heart-breaking tragedy. I also wish all the injured swift recoveries.

This heinous act deserves to be condemned in the strongest terms. Singapore stands in solidarity with Thailand during this difficult time.

Yours sincerely,

LEE HSIEN LOONG

His Excellency Prayut Chan-o-cha                   

Prime Minister

Kingdom of Thailand
