I was wondering if there is a rule that a comma must be placed before "thus" in resultative clauses, as I see it is not always used. For example:
"It no longer targets regional balance, or maintenance of regional occupation in decentralized areas thus preventing depopulation of mountain regions"
"Community-based programs teach youth violence control and problem solving, thus preventing juvenile delinquency by providing critical decision-making and life skills."
Thanks!
