PHNOM PENH, April 7 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia Prime Minister Hun Sen will meet with his Thai counterpart Abhisit Vejjajiva in order to solve both sides' border disputes and avoid further armed clash, a Cambodian spokesman said here on Tuesday.
"They will meet for bilateral talks during the ASEAN summits from April 10 to 12 in Thailand," said Phay Siphan, secretary of state and spokesman of the Council of Ministers.
Cambodia welcomes talks anywhere and anytime to avoid further armed clash between Thai and Cambodia troops in the areas near the Preah Vihear temple, he said.
Two rounds of armed confrontations took place last Friday after Thai troops with weapons intruded on Cambodian land near the 900-year-old temple, and resulted in death and casualty on the Thai side, according to a statement issued by the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
Since July 2008, troops from both sides have stationed near the Preah Vihear temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and two armed confrontations last year sparked brief concerns of war.
The two neighboring countries have never fully demarcated their disputed border, mainly due to different interpretations of historical maps, as well as the landmines left over from decades of civil war in Cambodia.

Thailand wanted Prasat Preah Vihear temples to be call Prasat Khao Phra Vihan temple in Thai language.
Cambodia did not even take Thai's land.
Cambodian soldiers did not even cross the border into Thailand.
But ah Hun Sen give away our island Koh Tral to Vietnam.
Almost half of our ocean territory goes with Koh Tral island.
Almost half of our oil fields goes with Koh Tral island.

This show that Ah Hun Sen have no interest in protect Cambodian territory.
Because Ah Hun Sen trade Koh Tral island for his power to Vietnam.
The Khmer peoples continue to have heartaches because Thai took our territories and our peoples.
The Khmer peoples continue to have heartaches because Vietnamese took our territories and our peoples.
This heartaches will go on for many more generations.
