Thailand to Preah Vihear management committee: Do not touch the overlap 4.6 sq.km.

7-country committee work has no authority to manage area of Preah Vihear

July 11th, 2008

Director-General of the Information Department under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tharit Charungvat, says a committee consisting of representatives of seven countries does not have the responsibility to negotiate on the management of the 4.6-kilosquare-meter overlapping area at Preah Vihear.

The director-general says the committee’s work concerns only the protection and development of the Preah Vihear temple.

Chairman of the national committee on Thailand’s World Heritage sites, Pongpol Adireksarn, has earlier said that he supports the establishment of the seven-country committee as he believes that it can resolve rows over the management of the overlapping area. The director-general says Mr Pongpol’s remark caused a misunderstanding about the committee’s responsibility.

ICJ ruled that Preah Vihear and 4.6KM belonged to Cambodia.

Com on' PM Hun Sen. Where is your self proclaimed Sdech Con? Show us your muscle. Why ceded the land 4.6KM that the King won?

If PM Hun Sen cannot even protect that land 4.6KM from the former King, darn it then STEP DOWN.

bullshit, thailand. there is no dispute as the icj verdict settled this once and for all since 1962. this is a contempt of court by thailand for disrespect the icj verdict. the 7-member unesco assigned team should uphold icj verdict in this matter once and for all. thailand is falsifying the claim that their territory is at the gate of the temple, it is not in accordance to the icj verdict which for the same reason that they are claiming that our king sihanouk took thailand to court and won for the very same case we are talking here now. so, nothing is new for thailand and the 4.6km2 area is cambodia's just take a look at the icj verdict to answer any doubt or to settle any more dispute in this area of cambodia where preah vihear is located. enough already, thailand. take them to court for contempt of court, period, no more excuses or bullshit from them.

let the icj deal with thailand, cambodia has nothing more to say with them. plus, unesco is the world body, so tell thailand to respect the international court of justice verdict, seriously! thailand think money can buy cambodia or something; it's all in the mind, don't allow it to happen, cambodia, our land is priceless, period.

and one more thing, all khmer people can help to protest thailand by reminding them to respect the icj verdict as thailand needs help with this as they can seem to understand the international laws or something. and don't wait for mr. hun sen or whom ever to take action; be proactive is the key word, cambodia. if we wait for mr. hun sen or others to take action, remember the saying in khmer: ber ter see ache, neak aeng see ache del reu? in other words, don't follow bad examples for everyone has one, i'm sure. just take the good examples and toss away the bad ones. thank you and god bless cambodia and khmer people.

The 4.6km belong to Cambodia according to 1907 and 1962 decision.

If the Siam want to lose face again no problem.

Ah Siamese is Big Chicken! They wanted the money on the table but they are afraid to sit down and playing the game(legally). They just simply standing, whining at Cambodian GV'T to make a move the way they wanted to!!!.I have a Q... to you I BAR Siamese! WHY DON'T YOU MAKE A MOVE first since you're the one who make the trouble??????? don't have to push Cambodian GV'T if you're feeling it's your anyway????, you have suprim power over Cambodian (Militarily). Are you afraid the game on the table in front of the world???? You preferred the back door don't you??? I know, that is what a reason we, Khmer know you by heart (Ah Siamese Thieves). Cambodian don't have to worry it's all belong to Khmer anyways. You should learn about the fact not the fake, it could make you break up your families HONEY!. Khmer do have the problem border with you but not at that location! it's far beond that! learn not to ignoring the fact dear!. This time you said gonna bring in 7 Nations to develop over what you have claimed the overlap area! what a smart choice!!! My Q... is this,you could not affort to cooperate with two Nations, how come you wanted 7 Nations joining development on that area???? this is the best option for you to swallow the area in the future??? OH! what a smart are you!!. Honey Khmer did not hear you any proposal by you THIEVES. Your CF18 get rusty and useless against Khmer Nation. Have I said that, because in the last month or so there were Ah Siamese threatening Khmer to send CF18 to Phnom penh for the Preah Vihear complexity issue. My suggestion is, you should put on auction sell all Militaries hardwares, many african Nations interested, you won't have a chance to use in combat befor technology due date honey. PLS learn the fact, the 21 century the world leaders have learnt different thing not WAR. God bless Khmer all!
May peace in your mind
