PAD ends Phrea Vihear protest

The People's Alliance for Democracy has ended its protest to force Cambodians out of the disputed area near the Phrea Vihear temple yet vowed to return if the government fails to resolve the matter.

Veera Somkwamkid who led the yellow-clad PAD protest in Si Sa Ket was allowed to read a protest statement at Pha Mor E Daeng inside Khao Phra Viharn National Park which is close to the 4.6 square kilometre disputed area and stairway leading into the ancient Preah Vihear temple.

The permission followed the Saturday clash between PAD protesters and Si Sa Ket residents near the natural park which has resulted in scores of injuries.

The group statement demands that the Cambodian soldiers and villagers evacuate the disputed 4.6 square kilometre dispute area.

"We do not accept the World Heritage Committee's decision to grant Cambodia the right to list the Preah Vihear temple as well as land around it as the part of World Heritage site,'' said the statement.

Second Army Corps commander Lt Gen Wiwalit Chornsamrit listened to the PAD's statement reading.

Mr Veera accused the Cambodian government of allowing its people to build houses, roads, and temples in the disputed area and said the PAD only exercised the constitutional rights of Thai people to fight to protect Thai sovereignty.

He also accused Thai authorities of mobilising villagers in the nearby community to clash with the PAD protestors on Saturday which has resulted in scores of injuries.

Mr Veera later told media that Army chief Gen Anupong Paochinda should use martial law as a tool to push back the Cambodians to return to their homeland.

He added the PAD protesters would came back to the area if the government fail to follow their demand.

Originally, Khmer is from Khmer.

However, Thai or Siam is from chines (10%) and Khmer (90%).

One more language that is called Thai was born.
