Life of Cambodian monks at the Cekakiri Svarak pagoda under Thai army occupation and invasion
Soldiers from Thailand stand guard as Cambodian Buddhist monks walk in through the gates of the Cekakiri Svarak pagoda in the compound of the Preah Vihaer temple, about 245 km (152 miles) north of Phnom Penh, July 17, 2008. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said on Thursday a border row with Thailand was "worsening" and urged the immediate withdrawal of Thai troops from the disputed ancient temple. A political uproar in Thailand over Cambodia's listing of the Preah Vihear temple as a World Heritage site has been stoked by groups seeking to oust Thai Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej's shaky ruling coalition.

Wow....venerable monks, you are the soldiers of the Buddha, and now you are the soldiers of Preah Vihear temple!!
Please don't move out, please people around Preah Vihear offer venerable monks with food, beverages, medicines and clothing!!!
Thanks
Whatch out for Ah Khmer-Yuon spy monks, fellows! Shoot them if the try anything.
Samma Samputho, don't shoot the monk, Nhom. If you want that I will call Vietnamese who hid in the surrounding area to join them. You know what the Vietnamese going to do? They will throw the grenade in between Thai and Cambodian soldier, then, they step out watching Thai and Cambodian Shooting. Are we having fun?
There is not such thing called Issan province. It is the north-eastern region in Thailand. Are you Khmer from Si Sa Ket province? If so, go and help stop the demonstrators near the border. Can you speak Khmer? Your province is the poorest province in Thailand. You need our temple to economically survive. I understand that is why you want the temple badly. Don't worry, even though the temple belong to us, we will share with you in terms of tourists money. But first you have to stop the stupid Thais from claiming that the temple belongs to them. Use your brain, if you have one, to make sense of things nowadays. Things that happens centuries ago are histories. If you really want to talk about history, half of Thailand belongs to Khmer Kings. If you don't realize this, your brain may be of a side of a penut, which is smaller than those of monkies guarding the temple.
in the word of the budha if he wants then i shall give even my life. suffering arise through wanting and through giving you learn of suffering. the teaching is to get rid of suffering as much as possible. if thai says the temple belong to them then so be it. in that way no blood will be shed over some building made of wood and concrete. is life more and peace more important or fighting and envying more important? fights and envy lead you no where but hell
