Banteay Meanchey: Black-clad soldiers of the Thai Battalion 1201 who set up a barrier in violation of Cambodian territory some 700 meters deep inside Cambodia in Angseila village last week claimed that they would agree to dismantle the barrier only if the Cambodian side agreed to pull down five houses near the border in Tuol Prasat village, Poipet commune. Now the barrier set by the black-uniformed Thai soldiers is not yet taken away despite a series of meetings to peacefully resolve the problem.
Major Duk Savat, deputy commander of border defense unit 503 stationed in O Bei Choan, told us over the phone at 1300 on 14 November that concerning the setting up of the barrier inside Cambodian territory by the Thai Battalion 1201 on 13 November, the Cambodian-Thai border demarcation commission had already inspected the area involved and found out that the barrier set up on the road adjacent to the K-5 dam was on Cambodian soil. Regarding this problem, the Cambodian Now the barrier set by by the black-uniformed Thai soldiers is not yet taken away despite the peaceful meetin and Thai sides have already met and discussed it, but the barrier has not yet been removed. The Thai side claimed that barrier was erected to prevent Cambodians from clearing the land or cutting trees in the white zone now that the Cambodian-Thai border is not yet clearly demarcated.
Kev Sen, deputy governor of O Chreou district, told us by phone at 1330 on 14 November that the setting of the barrier inside Cambodian territory by the Thai soldiers was contrary to the spirit of the meetings because the Thai soldiers intruded into Cambodian territory, which is a violation of the legal procedures in border region. He stressed that the border demarcation commission had already met on this problem, but he did not know whether any decision had been made.
Lieutenant Colonel Tim Saret, liaison officer at the Cambodian-Thai border in Poipet, also said that the erection of the barrier by the black-clad Thai soldiers 700 meters inside Cambodia was made in contravention of the legal procedure agreed on at a previous Cambodian-Thai meeting. He blamed the border guards for failing to prevent the Thai side from violating our territory at that point or for not taking any steps to stop them and settle the problem earlier. In this connection, the local people or the road building company should not be blamed, for they just built the road. It is only after the Thai reacted that you want to blame the people and the road builders, he said. It is because the border guards did not do their work in the first place that we now have this problem.
The officer affirmed that after this border problem broke out, the commander of the 5th Military Region ordered officials concerned to make contacts and hold meetings in a consistent effort to resolve this problem. But no solution has been found yet.
Lt. Col. Tim Sareth maintained that this problem has not yet be resolved because the Thai side has asked the Cambodian side to order the villagers to pull down five houses from Tuol Prasat village, Poipet commune, first before they would dismantle or take away the barrier from Cambodia's Angseila village in O Bei Choan commune.
It should be noted that the problem started after land was being cleared to build a road from the K-5 dam to the barbed-wire fence at the Thai border, and the Thai immediately reacted by putting up a barrier near the K-5 dam.

What is so special about the black-clad Thai soldier who continue to put fear in AH HUN SEN army? Does AH HUN SEN army fear the fucken black-clad Thai soldier uniform or do they fear the bullet?
One bullet and one kill is still apply here! The fucken just can't come into Cambodia and claimed everything for themselves! The fucken Thai can't even control their own small Muslim population in Southern Thai and they want to mess with Cambodia? The fucken Thai didn't even last a couple months in Iraq and they want to mess with Cambodia? If the fucken Thai think that by having war with Cambodia will improve their economy then let the fucken Thai send their fucken black-clad uniform soliders over!
Cambodian people never owe the fucken Thai anything and it is AH HUN SEN who owe the fucken Thai! If the fucken Thai want to start instability in South East Asia and let them and nobody give a fuck about them either!
No negotiation with the fucken Thai when it come to Cambodia sovereignty! No fucken negotiation!
No fucken open door policy either!
what wrong with the fucking thai with Cambodian house in Cambodia land, what the fuck they want? they want everything they have here get burn off again? if so, let start it again, they never do anything good to our people who work in their fucking city, so why we need to give these idiot a good dam life in our land.......
Where are the brave Cambodian Army Generals who grabbed Cambodian people's lands? These cowards are silent when the Thais grabbed Cambodian territories, but they have no hesitation in evicting and killing Cambodian people for their little pieces of land.
Because these idiot Cambodian Army Generals are a coward, the Thai soldiers in black lingerie can just walk into Cambodian territories and set up a barrier without fear. These Army generals are also afraid that their LandCruiser or Lexus SUVs may get dirty if they go to inspect the border dispute area. You know, the roads are bad and dusty after the end of the raining season. So, it is better for them to wait for any news in the karaoke room back in the city.
As one Cambodian Army General excitedly said: choy euy, ah Thai york dei Khmer! And, General Tea Banh responded: khor khuop kham chai mot lev! Don't ask, I have no clue what that means.
This says a lot about under paid frontier soldiers morale and confidence in their government.
Reminder of 1968 soldiers courage under Siahnouk government when VC moved in Cambodia then.
You Xmers are so dumb. HANOI has already told HUN SEN what to do... Just wait and see...The Viets will take care of you for the Viets..You Xmers will see...
I had bad experiences with the fucking Thai soldiers along the border when I was in the refugee camp back in 1980s. All the provinces along the khmer and thai border belong the cambodia. What the fuck they want to do? destroy all khmer housese along the border? fuck them. If there is a war between the fucking thai, I want to fight for my khmer land. The fucking thai claimed everything the khmer have. They claimed khmer temples such Preah Vihear, Angkor Wat, etc. Fuck you Ah thai people.
This is what you called The Thai bullshit. They wanted respect yet bully their little brother. It does not work that Thailand. You don't go into someone's house and demand something done for you before you leave. It is a stupid aggressive move before the eyes of people. How much more do you want to take advantage of Cambodia's situation?
ah Thai theft compets with ah vietcong in grapaing khmer land along the border.
I thought ah kvack Hun Sick is powerful and well known to be the strong man. What happens?
Who give the fucken Thai the right to define what is WHITE ZONE or not? The fucken Thai think they are God or what?
I don't give a fuck if the fucken Thai is God!
