Possible sign to post at Preah Vihear temple?
PHNOM PENH, Oct. 28 (Kyodo)—Cambodia said Tuesday it will put up huge signboards identifying Preah Vihear Temple as a World Heritage site after armed conflicts broke out between Cambodia and Thailand in the disputed border area.
Phay Siphan, spokesman of Cambodia's Council of Ministers, told Kyodo News that the signboards, which are visible from the sky, will be installed on Nov. 7 at Preah Vihear Temple in the presence of representatives from the U.N. Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization and the Cambodian government.
He said posting the signboards has become "necessarily urgent" after Thai troops allegedly damaged the temple during a recent border clash.
Last week, Cambodia filed a complaint with UNESCO claiming Thai soldiers damaged statues and a staircase at Preah Vihear with shoulder-launched M-79 rockets.
The Thai Foreign Ministry has denied its troops damaged the temple.
Cambodia succeeded in June in getting Preah Vihear inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage site, over Thailand's objections.
Preah Vihear has been the scene of tense confrontation between the two sides since mid-July after it was registered as a World Heritage site.
On Oct. 15, armed troops of Cambodia and Thailand clashed at three locations in the disputed area near the temple, leaving several dead and tens of others wounded on both sides.
Phay Siphan said the posting of the signboards is made in response to the 1954 convention for the protection of cultural property in the event of a conflict.

Thai mentally is: IF I CAN NOT GET IT I WILL DISTROY IT...
what.s, ah kwack?
If you are screaming like a little and spot one or both of your legs hanging up side down on a tree, that mean you have step on a mine. You are on Cambodian territory, please crawl back to Thai territory.
Thank you.
Waht if, after put up, the signboard got hit by bullets fired by the siamese soldiers?
Will the siamese say that they were aiming to shoot at Cambodian armies or Cambodian army's heavy weapons installed up there?
Guess what? this case may be possible because this full-of-shit nation, the siamese have so much fucking excuses and they are not shame to do all these dishonor acts.
