The National Security Council (NSC) Monday endorsed the new drawing map annexed into Cambodia's proposal to Preah Vihear list as the world heritage, Foreign Minister Noppadon Pattama said.

"The map clearly indicated boundary of the Hindu temple and no part of the claimed territory is in Thai soil," the minister told reporters.

The cabinet would also approve the map, enabling Phnom Penh to submit its proposal to the Untied Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (Unesco)'s world heritage committee.

this is really the trick by the thai. actually, cambodia is still losing our land in the vicinity of our preah vihear temple. thailand want cambodia to draw up a new map because they can't handle the truth of the old map at the time when court ruling in 1962 indicated that the disputed land is actually belongs to cambodia along with the temple. i still say use the old map. what is wrong with the old map that was used in the 1962 ruling? what a thief they are and still are!
