Abhisit Vejjajiva declared Friday if he is elected as PM, his government will accord the top priority to Asean and move up the 14th Asean summit to early February.

"The new government and Thai people are ready for the summit," he reiterated adding that he would also ensure that all Asean-related documents would go through the House's vetting in time for the 14th Asean summit, which will be rescheduled in early February instead of March.

"All preparations including documents are ready," he said adding that early February would be the best time. Some Asean members were anxious and wanted to have the Asean summit convened in January rather than March.

Abhisit also expressed deep appreciation to the Asean members for their support and understanding of the political situation that Thailand is facing. "I am grateful to Asean for its understanding and concerns," he said

Abhisit, whose party is expected to form a new coalition government next week, said that Asean is pivotal to all members because of its huge market and economic potentials and its future integration into one common community.

"The Asean Charter is an important step for Asean in strengthening the organization and providing clear direction," he said.

Abhisit pointed out that the new government needs to compensate the summit's postponement by forging broader and more concretized measures to cope with the ongoing global financial challenges when the Asean leaders meet along with their dialogue partners.

On the Asean Global Dialogue Initiative, the opposition party leader emphasized that such a high-power dialogue among key international financial institutions would be beneficial for Asean in exchanging views and learning from each other on measures to cope with financial crisis.

อ้ายหมาอภิสิทธิ์ เวชชาชีวะไม่ต้องให้มันเข้ามากรุงพนมเปญเดดขาด...เราจะยิงยี่สิบเอ็ดกระสุนไปสู่ใบหน้าของมัน!

Abhishit, if you have ill-will toward the people of Cambodia, don't you dare set foot on Khmer soil!

Preah Vihear was built by a Khmer king for the people of Cambodia. The world court ruled that already in favor of Cambodia back in 1962. Don't use our temple for your political gains in Thailand, bastard!

We know that Thais are idiots, only idiots claim to be intelligent and superior over others...when it comes to rule of international law...they lose big time! The case in 1962 is an example. We hope to take them to court once and for all for their illegal intrution along our 800km long border with them. There is no place for Thais in Suvannaphumi and they should migrate back to their ancestral homeland in southern China.
