The heritage sites - two stately mansions and two temples in Thailand's Prachin Buri and Cambodia's Battambang - remain as the legacy of Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr (Choom Abhaiwongse, 1861 to 1922), the last lord governor of Battambang before Siam gave up the province, together with Siem Reap and Sisophon, to French-ruled Cambodia in 1907.
Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr (Choom Abhaiwongse), the last lord governor of Battambang under the rule of Siam.
Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr was born in Battambang, but received education in Bangkok. He took over the position of lord governor of Battambang from his father who died in 1892. He was the fourth and last governor of Battambang from the Abhaiwongse family.
In 1905, Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr began building the baroque mansion in Battambang with the intent to make it his residence. However, the mansion was incomplete at the time he abandoned Battambang as France took over the province after the Siamese-French territory pact relinquished it for Trat and some islands on Siam's eastern coast.

Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr, who enjoyed hunting and a rural lifestyle, spent a short time in Bangkok before eventually asking for royal permission to settle down in Prachin Buri where he could pursue an adventurous life.
In 1909, he decided to build another mansion in a similar architectural style in Prachin Buri. His motivation came after he received King Chulalongkorn during a royal visit in the hope that he would have a proper place to serve the monarch if he travelled to the province again. The monarch never did as he passed away the following year.

"Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr had the mansion face east, towards Battambang, instead of the Prachin River, in accordance with traditional construction practises," noted Supaporn Pitiporn, managing director of the Abhaibhubejhr Foundation. It significantly indicates the bond Chao phraya Abhaibhubejhr felt with his former home, and he is said to have re-hired the same group of craftsmen who completed the mansion in Battambang to construct the new building in Prachin Buri.
Moreover, the way he built the main hall of Wat Kaewpichit in Prachin Buri's Muang district after that of Wat Domrey Sor, a monumental temple with spectacular architectural work in Battambang, further accentuates the affinity he had with his hometown.
its interior.
"He didn't return to Battambang until his death, however," she said, adding it must have been difficult for the nobleman to leave his birthplace and ashes of his parents and wife for a new land.
Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr presented the mansion to King Vajiravudh as a wedding gift when he married his granddaughter Khun Kruakaew (promoted to Phra Nang Chao Suvadhana). She later donated the building to the Royal Thai Army to be used as a hospital for soldiers and members of the public. The building is now a museum of traditional Thai medicine.

The nobleman never made use of the mansion. Only after his death did his body enter the building, placed inside for a funeral ceremony before being cremated at Wat Kaewpichit.
While the Abhaibhubejhr mansion underwent a major facelift to its former grandeur in 1994, it's twin building in Battambang is still in a sorry state. It had served as the Battambang provincial hall for many years until it was worn out and abandoned. The province now has a new building on the same compound and the mansion is now a meeting place for a local association.

Neang Chanthara, assistant to the Battambang governor, said the Thai and Cambodian governments discussed a restoration plan some four years ago. Experts from the Thai Fine Arts Department estimated the restoration plan for the mansion to have an approximate cost of 17 million baht.
A budget problem on the Thai side has delayed restoration, he said, expressing no confidence that the plan will be realised.
Neang Chantara hopes the mansion, when fully restored, will become a city museum.
He pointed out that leaks in the mansion's roof are an urgent problem.
"The roofs need to be fixed immediately as seeping rainwater has extensively damaged the building's interior for years," he said.

The roof restoration cost has been approximated at two million baht and is likely to be shared between the Battambang province and the Thai embassy in Phnom Penh, he said.
Moreover, he pointed out the Battambang province wishes to break down the restoration plan and budget into phases, as advised by the embassy, in order to make it more possible for Thailand to support the plan.

The mansion, once fully restored, should serve as a museum, he said.
Supaporn said she hopes the Thai government will be able to participate in the mansion's restoration.
The mansion is a symbolic link between the two countries, she said, adding it may encourage the exchange of travellers from both sides and thus foster better understanding and relations.

"We are immediate neighbours and we should live and help each other like brothers. We should share with each other in good and bad times. If the neighbour needs helps, we should do what we possibly can," she said.
While it was widely believed that Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr cut off all the links he had with Battambang, historical evidence suggests otherwise.
Among it is an inscription carrying the Abhaibhubejhr emblem at the base of the back of the main Buddha image in the old ubosoth (ordination hall) of Samrong Khanong temple outside of Battambang town. The inscription says the image was built in 1911, four years after Chao Phraya had left Battambang.

It is believed by many that Chao Phraya provided the money for the Buddha image's construction at the temple.
Some Cambodian historical textbooks portray Chao Phraya in a negative light because of his decision to abandon Cambodia, but Supaporn sees the nobleman in a different way.
"He was a brave man with kind heart," she said. Chao Phraya's deep faith in Buddhism is attested to the fact that he built over 20 temples in Battambang while in power. One of them is Wat Domrey Sor (White Elephant), a monumental temple in the heart of Battambang town.
The temple became the prototype of Wat Kaewpichit when Chao Phraya Abhaibhubejhr patronised the construction of the temple's ubosoth in 1918, which signifies another historical link between the two countries.
Over the weekend, Supaporn, health officials from Abhaibhubejhr Hospital and Thai merit makers travelled to Battambang to conduct a pha pa ceremony at Wat Domrey Sor. It was part of the Abhaibhubejhr Foundation's celebration of the Abhaibhubejhr mansion's centenary in Prachin Buri this year and also was in honour of the nobleman. Supaporn said the event went well despite current border tensions.
"Every nation has border issues. But we should go beyond the problem as it would be mutually beneficial," she said.
The way the EU fosters integration is an ideal example, she said.
"Thailand and Cambodia are part of the region and each should do its part for Asian union. We lie in the same area, called Suvarnnabhumi, after all."

we all knew that the siem stole battambang from khmer. battambang was a khmer town since the 11th century when compare to the brief time they occupied it. don't forget that battamband and many more old khmer provinces were khmer's in origin. so stop making a bid fuss out of it, siem thieves! did you people know that surin, chanborei and many many more you thieves stole from us? consider that lucky because it was during the dark ages. try to steal from cambodia again in this day and age we will reclaim all of our old provinces back. enough already, don't be so greedy again! god bless cambodia.
People have mutual understanding toward each other about history, but sometime politic is to blame.
And as always, there are good and bad people every where and people should not mix things up.
Border dispute should be left alone for the government to solve and the business between the two countries should go on.
Finally, I am proud to learn that Abhaibhubejhr is actually from Khmer bloodline.
Abhaibhubejhr is Siem bloodline that is why he died in Siam. Khmer has always forgive the Siem/thai/tai. Seim/thai in other has black/dark heart(Besdoang Kmoav)hand always take advantage of khmer kindness. Stealing that is all Siem/thai know and keep teaching their children to steal.

Stealing land from Khmer and others is nothing new for Thai. It is still stealing Khmer land everyday, enroch, build the road and take it. Preah Vihear is too famouse and they are die trying to take it, world court, international law? Thai don't give a shi*t. All Khmer should know that by now.

To Khmer is the traitor of our nation.

Ah traitor Chhoom abhaiwongse!
9:40 AM
agreed!
Most Nations should have women as head of their states. Men are horrible both on the out side and the inside! They just seem to come out at the wrong end and at the wrong time. Terrible terrible !
Chhum Aphaiwong may have wanted to be King of Cambodia, but there is no way. Not with the french taged along in the back all the time. Finally he just got feed up and left, but whose culture he saved in Thailand? Sometimes, you just have to believe in God. He had to put Khmer at some other areas to work his miracle. We just don't know it for the time being. Would we be able to revise all of our culture back this quickly, haven't we seen ours preserved in Thailand safely after the Pol Pot had destroyed everything? You must be blind both eyes. Anything you want or need to bring back Khmer culture and beauty alive, go to Thailand and will have them all back at a blink of an eye. Why? because they were there the whole time!. They were saved by our very own people who at the time were allienated from us, but they didn't leave us. They had never left us. They took us all along. Can you see in everything they do? not just that they got others to love us as much as their own. 65 millions people in Thailand are now celebrating our culture and love it as much as their own. Isn't great! Now , we got 14 + 65 people to be Khmer and love Khmer culture truely. They can call it their own, but the true is now out in the open and does it matter? We are the very same people, just speaking in a different language. It sounds different, but means the same thing. Yes, freind sounds like a better idea to embrase. Restoring both mansions sounds like the best idea ever! Why not get it going? What are we all waiting for???!!!
Down with the traitor of the Khmer nationnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. I suggest we burn down anything associated with the traitor of the Khmer nation. I will always hate the family of the traitors of the Khmer nation. Down and burn in hell to this aphayshitty azzed family who will forever live in infamy. How dare this shitty apayashitty head want anything to do with Cambodia??? Once you betrayed your own Khmer blood and flesh, you are no longer a member of the family. Stay rotten in hell. I condemn all of his family members to hell as well. Stop having anything to do with Cambodia, you shitty family of traitors.
12:15, stop being a shithead will ya. You know talking through your stinky butthole is not the way to go. We need to kick out all the Siamese back to their ancestral land of Nanchao, OK. We need to put all those Khmer traitors into the burning hot boiling water, OK. 14 with 65, man are you crazy, they will eat all of us alive. Look at the way they mistreat the Cambodian folks every day at the border. They are evil people and this you must KNOW and understand.
12:15 PM
We all not died by the Khmer Rouge as you mentioned. We are very proud and happy, still have some very well educated Khmers. They tried to rebuild our country and culture on the right track.
Khmer Rouge have done a very big mistake to the Khmer society, Culture and destroyed almost Human resources, but did not destroy our Khmer Heritages and Temples.
Khmer always have their own culture, value of life and believe for more than 6000 years. I am not sure about the Thai culture. Thai big culture was always to destroy the Khmer from this planet.
The old mansion in Battambang Cambodia today looks so ugly and sad. Don't know what the hell they do with the black iron gate or the big cannons in front of it. It's suck.
Former Battambang's native who now lives a broad.
Yeah! that new front gate looks nasty. It doesn't match with the mansion. Stop pretending would you? The mansion isn't all ours. It's reflecting the modernity of western's civilization and culture that we all want to embrase. So that we are not too behing or lag behind. It 's best building something that would compliment its origional beauty. Now it's looking like we are covering up something. It's embarrasing. Put the damm black iron gate back! The new gate belongs to the temple and not there.
The ROOTLESS THAI BANDITS should learn their history properly!

Will anyone have any proof confirming the reasons behind the Aphaivong's loyalty with the Siamese instead of his own bloodline? Powers? Conflicts? Other reasons?
Thanks for your answer.
