Deputy PM confident Cambodia visit could reduce border tension

BANGKOK, June 27 (TNA) -- Thai Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban said early Saturday that his visit to Cambodia and talks with Prime Minister Hun Sen could lead to a strengthening of relations between the two neighbouring countries and lead to a reduction in the military stand-off at the border, particularly at the historic Preah Vihear temple.

Speaking to journalists only hours before he left for a one-day visit to Cambodia, Mr. Suthep said he was optimistic that his visit and talks with Mr. Hun Sen could help strengthen cooperation and as the two countries are neighbours, there is no reason for a tense atmosphere.

Asked if he believed he could lead Mr. Hun Sen to better understand the Thai perspective on the Preah Vihear temple issue, Mr. Suthep said he would explain to the Cambodian prime minister that the “Thai government is sincere in promoting (improved) bilateral relations.”

There is no need to argue about Preah Vihear temple because the World Court had ruled that it belongs to Cambodia while the Thai government’s objection to the World Heritage Committee on listing the temple as a World Heritage Site is another issue, Mr. Suthep said.

The International Court of Justice ruled in 1962 that the temple belongs to Cambodia while the United Nations for Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)’s World Heritage Committee granted Cambodia’s application for Preah Vihear temple to be designated a World Heritage Site in July 2008.

Clashes between soldiers of the two countries have occurred periodically as both sides claim some of the territory surrounding the temple.

There is no need for AH Suthep Thaugsuban to explain Prime Minister Hun Sen any longer about Siem government sincerity!

This fucken whole Cambodia-Siem conflict started when the Siem government used their military to occupy Cambodian temple and the surrounding land! If the fucken Siem government want to end the border conflict and show their sincerity and the Siem government must withdraw all Siem military personnel from Cambodian territory now!

Otherwise, the Siem government can bullshit all they want and the border conflict can never be solved which can lead to wider war!

Siem government started this whole border conflict and only the Siem government can end it!

This Thai Suthep Thongsuwan sweet talked Hun Xen again. Just like another sweet Thai music. It appears that Hun Xen has a soft heart for Thai aslo. Beware that Thai are sneaky. Thongsuwan is trying to show UNESCO that Hun Xen is listening to his objection to listing Preah Vihear as World heritage. Cambodia should not agree to any other deals with Thailand until the Thai recognizes common border areas and withdraw from Khmer land.

thai is the one who started the fire at the Khmer Preah Vihear temple but they want Khmer people and UNESCO put out the fire by giving them ownership of Preah Vihear temple and the surrounding area.Take your troops out from Khmer's land and stop tricking your neighbors and UNESCO.

Dear Elizabeth,

I agree with you that the two should talk. The new Thai PM came to power because of his support to absolute Chakri Dyansty who destroyed the democracy in Thailand. As a Thai citizen I would want to see my country to become a Republic. I don't care about this Preah Vihear that Cambodia already won at the International court, I care when my poor people can have a normal life from this long battle?
I don't even care if Cambodia and Thailand decide to become one Nation. Because we both share the same traditional culture, I just want my poor people (Red shirts) can have a moment of paradise taste in life , because they are poor and have to sell daughters and sons to survive, while the Chakry Dynasty has billion and billion of dollars in foreign banks.

Thank you

Losing hope

I totally agree with 11:45PM 100%! it's up to Thai government to decide, Thailand strated all of these problems first, if thailand want to live peacefully with each other, Thai must withraw all of their troops out!! Thai had invaded khmer lands!! i'm really worry about that private meeting at "Takhmao", i hope Hun Sen don't agree with Thailand on 4.6km of our lands! co'z Thai still claims that lands belong to them..??

Hello Elizabeth,

I read www.drudgereport.com everyday.
Are you Elizabeth Stanton who wrote "China Calls for World Currency.."?

KI is just a site I pass by when I am bored and want to read many junks from angry people who post their replies without reading the articles. Perhaps, they read only the topics and look at the pictures then they make their decisions.

We cannot trust Hun Sen at all. How much has he received from his dealth to sell Cambodian land to Vietnamese army 100,000 for 99 years leased of rubbers plantations in Ratanakiri and in Kg Thom?
Therefore, this deputy Prime Minister of Thailand can offer the same dealth to shut Hun Sen mouth. Who dare to visit Preash Vihear after that dealth?
4,16 Km2 represente only 4160 ha is much far less than 100,000 ha. In this 4160 ha, Thailand can pay to Hun Sen the same price as 100,000 ha in which Vietnam has paid to Hun Sen, then everything will be OK.
Cambodian people are now only slaves to Hun Sen for the whole country believe it or not? Areak Prey

Cambodian people PLEASE do not excited Hun Sen is not a nationalism nor well educated person, just an opportunist and set up by Viet Nam to finish Cambodia for Ho Chiminh dream Hun Sen not afraid to sell everything that Cambodia have for enrich himself and guarantee or secure his power careless about the Cambodian citizen . So he need money ,he must do under hand deal.
Thanks Areak Prey you got them all for Hun Sen plans .
Please think twice before you are all trust Hun Sen.
God bless Cambodia

If you consider your leaders more intelectual then Khmer leaders, how you justify your action today that bringing troop to invate Khmer then wantt peace and be a good neihbour, this is what you think that your leader Abhi-Shit cleaver?what trick are you using ?, all Khmer famers understood your stupid intetion.

Politics is politics, but politics does not spill blood is the best. Thais can't be trusted. Thay can never win us if PM uses the existing mechanisms i.e. laws and/or accords to solve the problems while keeping the foreign nations informed on any developments with this country. It would make things easier to the convence the US public (assuming that They would seek help from US should it be a war) to support us or international communities against the aggressors.

Thai Intellectuals just like other intellectuals and it has nothing to do with how to expand the territory for their nation.
To do that any nation needs intellectual people to draft a strategy to get it.

Elite Thais and Vietnamese are educated people, and Khmers have none in CPP high ranking. That's the reason Thais and Vietnamese are able to fool them around.
Hun Sen is not astrong man as he is to his people.

Don't expect that Thailand will collapse to Marxist, because the US will do what it takes to keep Thailand out of China-Russia.

Gentleman

It is quite appearent that current Thai govt claims joint venture over 4.6 km square on economic ground.

Accept the fact that court ruling in Hague in 1962,cambodia is the sole owner of Preah Vihear.Thus there is no such thing as preah Viharn.

To register Preah Vihear under the world Heritage is a sensble thing to do by cambodian govt and its people.It is quite legal with NO question ask.

Asking for joint venture due to the easer access for many tourists from Thailand is not acceptable.
I believe in fact that cambodia can provide facility to the visitors if that required.

Our PM,please do not fall into trap that cambodia get shrinking day by day.

Elizabeth, I want to see if you can say the same thing to Netinyahu about having Palestinian State next to Isreal, and maybe bring peace to Meddle East.

Good luck, Zion people.
