Cambodian government spokesman, Mr. Khieu Kanharith, said on Monday that Prime Minister Hun Sen will raise the Preah Vihear issue with Thailand's prime minister, Mr. Abhisit Vejjajiva, at the Asean Summit.
Mr. Kanharith told reporters: "I wish to inform you that, after the Asean Summit, there will be a bilateral talk. Normally, the Asean Summit has their own agenda. We have to respect the international norm and discuss what is in the meeting agenda. But Cambodia reserves the right to , first, discuss the Preah Vihear issue with the Thai prime minister. And second, if the talk has not resulted in any positive outcomes, Cambodia reserves the right to inform the international press about the situation in Preah Vihear."
The Asean Summit will take place on 27th February and ends on 1st March, 2009 in Hua Hin, Thailand.
Thailand's prime minister, Mr. Abhisit Vejjajiva, told Thai media in Bangkok yesterday that he hopes that the Cambodian prime minister will not raise the Preah Vihear issue at the Asean Summit.
He added that, in principle, regarding the border issues, Thailand has agreed with everything, that is to use the 2000's Memorandum of Understanding as a base for the negotiation.
Dr. Sok Touch, Cambodian professor of political science said that Thailand does not want the world to know about the Preah Vihear disputes with Cambodia because in the last few decades Thailand continues to have numerous border disputes their neighbours such as with Laos, Burma and Malaysia.
Cambodia and Thailand planned to demarcate the borders around Preah Vihear in December 2008, but due to political turmoil in Thailand the demarcation works have been postponed.

This is interesting that I'm hearing HUN SEN is going to raise the Preah Vihear's issue to the regional and international body.
We must inform to all nations about the Thai aggression toward sovereingty of Cambodia.
This matter got to stop. Thai can't pick Cambodia to gain of their internal issue.
And Hun Sen, he's better not just bark. Got to act swiftly and professionally.

If you can not debat the comment, don't attack the language they trying to express. It does not make you better by doing that. You know damn well that most commentors in this blog are not native of English speaking. LOL
Make your self usable.
Mr. Hun Sen,
it is time for you to slape Thailand right in the face at ASEAN meeting. Don't hide any thing longer.
Only LAW that can discpline the thief. Don't ever try to negotiate or share anything with thief. Theif is thisf. Only Law can controll thief.
Red-Ant.
Talk, talk, talk and talk. What a waste! How many more rounds of talk will be enough to settle the dispute? Bilateral talks held in the past are deadlock. Candidates on both sides involved in negotiation enjoy the cozy environment by drinking champagne, eating gourmet, play golf and stayed at high-class hotel. No wonder why they want to drag their legs. In some situations, it seems, this is a joke!
Hun Sen must be serious with Thailand about the Preah Vihear issue as well as other border issues. Please raise the issues in all international gatherings include Asean, UN or wherever we can. If Cambodia is quiet, then Thailand and the world will not care.
Why not? Hun Sen must be tough on this issue. It is bilateral for Thais because they invaded Cambodia. Even Oxford educated man can not escape the truth.

Chhker Pros Mideal Kam, Pkor Doeum Chhnam Mindeal Pleang.

Hun sen is a smart ass. See how he can move the commentators ass here? bacward\forward? but will this dragging move to anywhere that benefits khmer?
khmers benefit anything from this dragging issue, our preah vihear temple? or Hun sen is playing hardball to demand bigger share for his political and money benefit?
After all he will sell or surrend khmer country to youn. It's just the game to buy time to disguise the main motive--Vietnamization.
The best thing for PM Hun Sen to do is to propose a 50/50 join development.
Chhker Pros Mideal Kam, Pkor Doeum Chhnam Mindeal Pleang.
I thought he declared that he will not attend the submit to waste the money?
Chhker Pros Mideal Kam. Bei Kam, Kam ter Khmer Slote Trang.. Ah Chhker Chkuot.
How many times did Mr. Hun Sen say such things? Like take the case to ICJ, and will bring up at the 10 Asian meating, do you all believe he will raise this issue up, no, no way, he will change his mind again, wait and see.
So what? PM is entitled to change is plan for the better as many times as he please. It's no crime about it.
