PHNOM PENH, Aug. 22 (Xinhua) -- Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said on Saturday that there was no fighting at border and he will recall some troops to help the farmers to planting crops after some areas had been hit by drought.
"We are monitoring to withdraw the troops from the frontiers and we need soldiers to help the local farmers during this time," the premier said at the opening ceremony of irrigation in Pursat province, southeastern part of Phnom Penh, citing that Thailand now has 30 soldiers at the border.
"But in case we have problem at the border, we can mobilize our troops so quickly to border area," he said, adding that "we are moving back our troops of Kompong Thom and Siem Reap provinces to their headquarters from the border."
"I hope there is no fight each other again there," he stresses. Cambodian and Thai troops have confronted at areas near the 11th-century Preah Vihear temple since July, 2008 when the UNESCO listed the temple as the World Heritage Site of Cambodia.
Moreover, Hun Sen said that "in modern age, we need to discuss the matters with each other and we do not want to see any people shed their blood."
Troops tension at border is becoming ease and both side plan to measure the areas soon to plant border markers.

what Hun Sen Tactics try to show us?
His game ? While the Thai pick on us khmer every day.
That is the khmer rouge formula and systematic with the Hun Sen uses
khmer rouge Youn slave is good in killing khmer ppls.
This is easy for Thai to invaded Preah vihear for 100% sure...
When Thai show of battle ships with aircraft carriers Hun Sen start to get shaking, worry about his power, maybe Vietnamese too worry if Thai start invade Cambodia from sea, air and ground battles this Hun Sen will be gone and Vietnam can not take any more Cambodia land too.
So Hun Sen, ordered by Viet, must pull back the troops to show Thailand that he does not want to fight, if so his government will be demolished in two day by this super power neighbour, Thai.
Vietnam is too clever.
2:43PM got the point!
