Burning of Thai embassy in Phnom Penh in 2003The Nation
Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh has asked the Cambodian government to explain to Khmers the complexity behind the dispute over the Preah Vihear Temple, a senior Thai diplomat said.
The move came after a growing number of Khmers expressed confusion over the heated discussions over the temple in the Thai Parliament and the Thai public.
"The Thai embassy in Phnom Penh wants the Khmer government to inform its people that the discussions have nothing to do with the mutual relationship," the source said.
The discussions started after the Thai government endorsed Cambodia's map of Phreah Vihear Temple which will be included in its bids to list the temple as Unesco's World Heritage Site.
Opposition bloc and some Thai sectors said the decision by the Samak government was an about face to the country's long standing position that said the country has the right to ask the world court to retry to the Preah Vihear case if and when new historical evidence surfaced to support Thailand's claim to the 10th century Hindu temple.
The Thai embassy is worried that the current misunderstanding may result in another round of anti-Thai riot, a repeat of a 2003 incident that ended in the embassy in Phnom Penh being burn to the ground along with Thai-own businesses in Phnom Penh .
The same source said Thai embassy in Cambodia is monitoring the situation in Phnom Penh closely amid the ongoing debate. On Thursday, Thai embassy staffs asked the Cambodian authorities why roads in front of the embassy were closed off. They asked if that was something was problematic.
They were informed that the roads were closed as Cambodia's People Party which has office opposite the embassy released a caravan to launch its election campaign.

Cambodia should also have the right to retake the Khmer land that Thailand took. There are plenty of historical facts and evidence to reclaim this land back and unite all the Khmer people with the motherland.
You Siamese, as my compatriot 9:36PM has made the point, you are feeling to retry claiming Khmer Preah Vihear; we, Khmer should have to claim back Khmer Motherland that you've been occupied ever since!. I do know that your arrogant attitude toward Khmer Nation is grudging, it's too much for us to handling. I am telling you right now! you're comparable to a drift of water on a tall lotuce leaf. We, Khmer wanted to reunited our brothers and sisters who are occupying by you for centuries(they are not SIAMESE nor THAI)(they're Khmer all periot.), they always embrace Khmer polite attitud Khmer likely, fraternally as Khmer relatives; comparable to you(Siamese) are arrogant, domination manner and intentionally to eradicating Khmer Nation off the MAP. More ever the ravenous of you relentlessly toward Khmer posessions by claim as yourown.
May god bless Khmer all!
Down to Ah Siamese and Thai!

Do you think the Native Americans have the right to claim the U.S.?
i guess they don't learn from that do they? i don't think cambodia needs thailand to do business in cambodia etc... so, go to hell because all you siem people want to do in cambodia is steal our land, our belongs and our people and the next thing we know say 50 or 100 years from now, you people will use the pretext again saying thailand claim and steal from cambodia because they are khmer people. so full of it. get lost. i don't see any cambodian people doing business in thailand, so why should cambodia let thailand do business in our country?
To 1:21AM
Hey mother fucker! Tell me does Native Americans indians have a nationhood or statehood? Of course not! In case you mother fucker didn't know that Native Americans indians are forced to live on the most unproductive piece of land called indians reservation!
You mother fucker want to compare the Khmer people to the Native American indian? You mother fucker think that the Khmer people have no right to coexist on planet Earth among the world community!
Guess what! The fucken Vietcong were trying to make the Khmer people like the Native American indians by sending their 100,000 standing army including tanks and jet fighters into Cambodia during the 1980 and look what happen! After 10 years of the Vietcong occupation and they withdrew their troop!
There is no comparison between Native American indian and the Khmer people! Any fucken aggressor come to Khmer land will pay with blood!
It is time to cut all diplomatic tie with the Thaicong and Cambodia can certainly do without it! There are more friends to make from around the world!
Cambodia must stand tall and be strong!
1:21am, your argument is irrelevant to cambodia. we have angkor and the great khmer empire and preah vihear, they don't. so there. stick with the topic khmer and siem, not american indians, etc... because i find that so boring. plus this blog is about khmer, not american indians as they are a world apart anyway, you stupid, moron! what a knuckle head you really are and a pain in the bottom as well.
Mr.1.21AM I think you need to learn more about International rule of law, I wanted to open you eyes in brief. First my Q? to you! do you think Cambodian issue is comparable to Americans native issue??, 2- I wanted to unswer your Q..?, - If Americans native were as same as Cambodian case(I mean it's not similar), the unswer is yes! you know why as you're seing as it's. The KHMER CASE HOWEVER it completly different. I am telling you why? just only one criteria among those ( it's not exact but just to open you eyes once again is enought!). One particullar state has entile to reclaim back theirown territory that has been lost by another Nation occupied nor( by many mean), 1- Atleast the state ownership keeping reclaiming steadily, or in sertain mandatory of year!, 2- That state ownership must be a legitimatly member of Unite Nation as a nation of the Country comprise with lawful, Languages viable Culture and so ..on, or if not(a state) but they are all well known and recornized by Unite Nation Ex:(Aboriginal nation; they have their right to reclaim step by step of a certain degree of the rule of law; 3- That nation must come up with adequate evidences such as: History, Tradition, Culture, Languagea, physical evidence and more... to registering as reclaimation. Cambodian issue is a Country, a Nation, moreover Cambodian has new Map then ancien Map History,and we know how Ah Siamese had Stolen Khmerland. It's more than enought to reclaim back jerk!. Your leaders is well known of these law, that why they have tryed so hard to hampering Cambodian GV'T from doing properly buseness Ah Siamese GV'T must interfer any mean to keep Cambodian Nation down from progressing and to becomming a stronger Nation.( what I have stated above is a very smal fraction of requirement of the international law, as I have been said just to open your eyes and shove you how the different between Native Americains and Cambodian issue) you need to learn to understand more further.
May god bless Khmer all!
Down to Ah Siamese!
STOP IT IDIOT 1:21 AM!!
IF THOSE NATIVE PEOPLE ARE NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT THEN THEY CAN.
IT HAPPENS IN NEW ZEALAND, AUSTRALIA ...AS LONG AS BOTH PARTIES AGREED TO FOR THE BENEFITS OF THE COUNTRY.
KHMERS AND SIAMS ARE DIFFERENT.
LEARNING NOT TO INTRUDE AND ROB CAMBODIA IS TOLERABLE.
NEANG SA
I WOULD RATHER DIE IN THE CAUSE OF FIGHTING AGAINST SIAM IF THERE IS WAR AGAINST SIAM'S AGGRESSION ON OUR TERRITIORY.
KHMER PEOPLE, PLEASE BE STRONG AND UNITE. WE TOGETHER WILL DESTROY OUR ENEMY .
DESTROY ALL AH SIAM!
BRAVO, KHMER PEOPLE!
LONG LIVE OUR MOTHERLAND!
Ah Siem must vacate all Khmer terrority and return to their ancestral home of Nan Chao. If Ah Siems choose not to do so, then they will be forever cursed and will be consumed by natural disasters like Tsunami and earthquake. Amen.
Nope, Khmer Empire belongs to the dominant Khmer-Thai, not the weak Khmer-Cambodia. Don't forget, that it is the Khmer-Thai's king who crowned The Khmer-Cambodia's king. Therefore, without the Khmer-Thai, Cambodia has no king, no Ankor, no Preah Vihear, ...., no nothing.
To 8:47PM
Fool! It is the French that crowned the Khmer King! King Sihanouk was chosen by the French!
The Thaicong got their history all fuck up! It didn't matter which Khmer King come to power and the Thaicong arse would still get kick at the end!
Oh well! This is just another Thaicong wishful thinking for them to crown the Khmer King again! I just hope their wish will come true! ahhahahhah
