Thailand won’t allow Cambodia to build roads leading to Preah Vihear temple

Everyday.com
19th November, 2008
Translated from Khmer by Khmerization

Mr. Ros Chantraboth, vice-president of the Royal Cambodian Academy, said in a seminar in Phnom Penh on Tuesday that the Veal Entry area is located inside Khmer territory and is an important route to Preah Vihear temple, so he thinks that Thailand will not easily allow Cambodia to build roads along this stretch of lands to connect to Preah Vihear temple. He said that Thailand will use all pretexts to cause disputes with Cambodia in order to obstruct the construction of this important route.

Mr. Ros said that the reasons of his claims were based on his observations that since Thailand sent its troops to occupy the Khmer territories Thailand has always claimed that the Veal Entry areas belong to Thailand. He added that, in every negotiation, Thailand has never abided by the agreements.

Regarding the maps, Mr Ros said that Cambodia has consistently used only one map, and that is the internationally-recognised map, which Thailand has also recognised and which was a map that Cambodia has used successfully in the 19962 court case which seen the return of the Preah Vihear temple to Cambodia.

He added that, the problem in the negotiation is that Thailand has used a map unilaterally drawn by Thailand for the negotiations.

He added that, in hindsight, Cambodia was under the influence or the pressures of the Cold War because Thailand has allied itself with the South East Asian Treaty Organisation (SEATO) led by America. Cambodia was not aligned and was neutral and Thailand has used American influence to produce new maps which has caused the problems in the Preah Vihear areas until today.//

Who the fuck is Thailand to tell Cambodia what to do on her soil ??!! Let's go to Veal Entry and if they have a problem lace them with bullets instead of words because talking with these ignorant sons of bitches will not get anything done. They are on our soil why is Cambodia scared to use force. Do you see any Khmer soldiers deep in Thai soil (or should I say Khmer soil in Thailand)? No! If we were these thais would use all kinds of tactics and get the international world on their side and make Cambodia look like the predator. Cambodia needs to stand up and confront these wild boars and shoot them down and eat them for dinner. I know for a fact Thais are just rough and tough on the outside looking in but in reality they are weak and scared of our guerilla warfare with sandals on. In my opinion since they are having their political turmoil right now why not make everything much more complicated for them and use this time to our advangtage and blow these fuckers to the shit hole. Fuck mercy for Thais! They need to be buried six feet deep with their queen.

Veal Entry is located inside Khmer territory so Thailand has no right to stop Cambodia from building roads there.

why wasting time on bilateral talk? Think about it again, mr PM? We should not entertain them. Go for international mediation. Go for it, and Khmers will love you.

See what I told you, Mr. prime minister: War is inevitable!

The war between the two nations will be the mother of all war; also, this will be a rematch of the Khmer civilization war.

Khmer Hero...
You're absolutely right. Why are we having this discussion. Just build the damn road and forget the scum Thais.

Oh wait, one more thing. don't forget to add more anti-personal mines on the borders to welcome the Thai soldiers.

Royal Government of Cambodia must let the UN know that Thailand has actually encroached on Cambodia's territory along its 800km2 border.

1. Even in Poipet the Yahoo, Wikipedia map shows the boundary way inside Cambodia by 300 meters. The border between the two countries is actually at the bridge of O'Chrov or "Khlong Leuk" in Thai. Now according to Yahoo and Wikipedia maps, the location of the Cambodia-Thailand boundary line shows that the Angkor Wat entry gate of Poipet is in Thailand if you zoom in Yahoo or Wikipedia map!

2. Thailand claims that 4.6km2 is disputed territory yet on Yahoo and Wikipedia maps, it shows that this area is in Thai territory!

The RGC must bring this matter to the attention of the UN and all institutions that make maps worldwide to adhere to maps internationally recognised, not according to maps "UNILATERRALLY" drawn by Thailand. We must correct this matter as soon as possible before it is too late.

This is insane and stupid from the Thai's action.

HUN SEN must not let the THAI do whatever they want and do not let them interfere in our internal issues.

HUN SEN wake up!!!

HUN SEN is really a big looser!
The more you be patience you are more the stupid SIAM will make you kneel down.

I don't undertand how HUN SEN win-win policy works.

We should ask the THAI to get out unconditionally from Khmer's soils regardless this and that.

Say whatever you want guys. But the fact is Hun Sen has to act like a peaceful negotiator in front of the international community and foreign donors to gain their sympathies. I am sure behind the scene, he is prepared to blow the fucking Siams out of our country.

Hey, 10:48PM, with respect, dude, I got to face reality, and want to ask you this question: how strong is your Hun Sen? you are not more Khmer than I am; I have patriotism as much as you have. I suggest that you should take a look at your side, too. You have no to blow out the Thais out of their country. Yoyr thoughtless rulers never care about defending their country against these neighboring aggressors. If the do, Cambodian military would be very well-equipped with modern weapons and fighting airplanes just as Taiwan and Israel are. Cambodia is not a poor coutry!

crazy hun sen needs to do somthing before too late. the people of news on tv station all they do is to brag about stupid hun sen that he is going to solve border problem. but I see nothing. If there is no solution the innocent khmer border are the one who is going to suffer and all animal hun sen said please be patient..

First of all the title of this subject must be altered. According to this article, there is no sentence idicated that thai officially stated " Thailand won’t allow Cambodia to build roads leading to Preah Vihear temple". This is only an assumption Mr. Ros has concluded.

Second, Mr. Ros should has not made such assumption publicly. Mr. Ros's statement is only help Thailand strategy not Cambodia. He puts the words in Thailand mouth. Thailand sees an oppurtunity, then proceed.

What kind of an offical is that?? So think twice before you open up your mouth Mr. dump-head.

10:38PM - Thanks for your politeness, buddy I am taking nobody side coz when you start taking side, you get into partisanship and miss the big picture. You talk about Israel and Taiwan! Man, I wish you know better. By the way, do you know how much a fighter jet like F15 or F16 cost? How much does it cost to train a pilot to flight? How many ground crew and maintenance work required for each hour of flying time? And on so on… Where is the check coming from? You?

Anonymous said...

Cambodia can afford to buy those F15 or F16 but those CPP officials took and pocketed all the money without enhance the army.

Shame on those greedy generals.

thailand obviously wants to keep cambodia isolated from development. like a dam infatuated with water force behind its bank, it can no longer hold water and ready to burst any time soon, try to stop cambodia is against international law and cambodia's own laws as well. we, khmer people want to build and develop our beautiful khmer nation so we don't have to depend on foreigners like thailand, again. god bless cambodia.

Anonymous said...

yeah, it's like telling cambodia not to develop phnom penh and leave phnom penh with dirt roads with no traffic lights. yeah, right! in your dream! god bless cambodia.

How about Viet illegal immigrants
(kikoum chor yuon) are flocking more and more everyday into Cambodia, now over 6 millions of them, stealing, raping khmer ressources of all kinds. Angkor Wat is belonged to Ah Sok Kong, a Viet, and gathered over 50 millions dollars from 2.7 millions tourists, from last year alone.

All Khmers had blind eyes over the Vietnamisation of their country, Cambodia. And Thailand had followed the same way the Viet had done to Cambodia.

Ah khmer kings, son and father, and
traitor Hun Sen did sign an additional treaties in 2005 ceding more khmer territories to Vietnam.

Use your common sense when all of you had just throw anger only on Thailand, as aggressors.

Tell Mr.Ros Chantraboth to shut his pie hole!! who care what thai don't like!! We build our roads in our territory, not in thais..? this fucker shouldn't bring this up...stupid bastard!!!!

11:02pm, You are right. The article is a little bit confusing. Thailand didn't say anything so far and what Mr Ros said was giving some ideas and Thailand will take an opportunity to block future road-building. If and when Thailand physically block the road-building, the Khmer army must be firm and ready to defend our territories.

Was our army not victorious in the 15 October "life and death" battle to recapture Veal Entry area? If it has reoccupied the area since then, nobody can prevent the construction of thre access road to Preah Vihear temple.
