The military adjustment would not afftect to sovereignty over the territory and has no implication to the boundary demarcation, he said.
He and his Thai counterpart; Tej Bunnag, hold a meeting at a hotel in Cambodia's Siem Reap province on Monday, which was the second of its kind to solve the border tension around the temple.
The meeting started at about 10am and ended almost 12 hours later. Both delegations had to postpone their flights, pending the negotiation.

Funny how this issue seem to be on the road to resolved after the election...
Cambodian Gov. should not agreed on de-mining with Thailand at this crucial time. Those land mines protect Cambodian teritory. If there are no land mines Thai troops would ready moved deeper into Cambodian Land. If a war break out Thai troops would easily pass the boarder.
Don't forget the war with Siem in LongVek. Soon after Khmer cut bamboo forest, the withdrawal Siem troops cameback an distroyed Khmer city.
One more concern is that if Cambodian Gov. alow Thai troops to clear those mines, Thai will claim their right on that land.
Cambodian should not extending talk any more with Siamese while their troops continuing to encroach Cambodian territory. As recently in Oddor Meanchey Province at Chuam Sragnam two days ago, at Srok Ampill, Western Chrork Thmar Duon( Phum Ko Ky), they have interferred Khmer people while voting procession. They're truely coward thieves.
Demining is unecesdsary right now..
