Cambodia's damages claim 'can be settled' [... so claims Anupong Paojinda]

Army chief Anupong Paojinda is confident that Thailand can negotiate with Cambodia after the neighbouring country demanded Thailand to pay 70 million baht for damage caused to a merket in fatal border clashes last month.

Gen Anupong also said he believes the demand comes from private sectors, not from the Cambodian government.

He said military officers of both sides can work together very well, thus he believes the issue can be solved.

According to reports, the Cambodian Foreign Ministry demanded US$2,150,000 for 319 Cambodian families who have lost their livelihood after 264 stands within the market were completely destroyed.

The clashes on April 3 took place near the ancient Preah Vihear temple area. Three Thai soldiers were killed and a Cambodian market next to the temple ruins was burned down when Thai forces fired rockets over the border.

Firstly, my hat go off to all the Khmer compatriots, scholars, intellectuals, and the Khmers around the world in and outside the Khmer Empire nation, who's tirelesly to helps fought for Khmer Krom to reach our independent in the near future.

Secondly, this coming June the fourth Khmer Krom and Khmer around the world will commemorated and observed the lost of Kampuchea Krom 60th aniversaries. To all Khmer around the world, please help participates in this events by seeking the information from Khmer Krom representative everywhere in your community.

Thirdly, my respectfully goes to the team of KI-Media. So far your team had done a tremendous job for the Khmer benefits and keep up the good works.

Fourthly, to all Khmer abroad please bring back The Fourth Factions or Paris Peace Accord unity strategy models.In the early ninety the only Youn pullout from Cambodia because we Khmers had united. Back then king Seyhanouk had all the power, popularity and was incharged. Every body respected him from Khmer perspective and the international community perspective. If I were him I would use this power and popularity to declare to the world community that the Khmer people still under the supression, aggression of Youn and Seam. In doing so, his reputations and credibility will be installed next to the Great Khmer King Jayavarman VII.
In the case of Kampuchea Krom, if we use this exact models we Khmer will once again liberated Kampuchea Krom from the Youn iron grips.And possibly Khmer Krom can declare their independent or reannexed to Cambodia who knows.

Respectively your,

Khmer Empire
