BANGKOK, Sept. 29 (Xinhua) -- Thailand's acting government spokesman Panithan Wattanayagorn said Tuesday that his country has committed to solving the border dispute with Cambodia by peaceful means base on the bilateral framework.
The acting government spokesman's statement was made after news reports saying that Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has ordered his troops to shoot any trespassers in the disputed border area near the ancient Preah Vihear temple, Thai News Agency reported.
Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva has not worried about the latest development at the Thai-Cambodian border as the two leaders earlier have agreed they will not let the border dispute affect the broader relations of the two countries, said Panithan.
If the two countries use forces to solve the border dispute, it will negatively affect the two neighboring countries and the ASEAN group, Panithan said.
In a related development, Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban said he plans to meet with Hun Sen, who will attend the forthcoming ASEAN Summit in Thailand, to discuss about the border dispute.
Thailand, which is the 2009 chairmanship of ASEAN, will host the 15th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits from Oct. 21-25 in central beach resort town Cha-am and Hua Hin.

You and your gangs always say one thing and do the opposite. Look at your country, who is the boss – the yellow shirt, the military, the parliament, the prime minister, or the King? How can Cambodia negotiate with a country in a politically disfunctional like yours?
I'm Thai if Abhisit Vejjajiva failed what he promised to Thai people that he will do whatever to reclaim the Khao Prah Vihan temple people will demand his resignation. And now he had realized that Cambodia is legitimate owner he is looking like a fool that he was convincing Thai people elected him. He had thought he can restore what the previous government duty to reclaim. Like we knew it too that even the pass PM said the temple and the 4.6km2 is belong to Cambodia.
Now he is putting his political career at odd.
Thai Tharmasat University student,
I agree! Thailand always said one theing and do other thing behind our back, they can't be trusted at all time! what cambodia needed to do is, be well prepared our troops, i don't think it gonna solve this issue any soon, more problems ahead...
correction = Thai said one thing and do other things instead...
If Thais people crossing into khmer illeagally, we must jails them up to 100 year terms in prison, don't chains their legs, chains their neck...or just shoot them with RPG-7 instead...

Remembered Thais signed with hands and erased with foots, never ever trusted the bastard...
khmer people say to siem, stop using our preah vihear temple and surrounding lands as your own political ambition, ok! we cannot honor your unilateral map, only the 1907 treaty map! go back to nanchoa province of china, china is waiting for you people there, ok!
well, of course, we expect this is how siem supposed to behave. and siem should control their pad thugs more effectively, ok! don't let pad thugs come closer to cambodia because they will be shot for invading cambodia, ok!
of course, we all wanted that, but go tell and go educate your pad thugs to learn proper history and learn about the international law, too, ok! cambodia don't have the patient for stupid people like the pad thugs, ok! modern cambodia have rule of law; plus we are not in the dark ages anymore, really! get over it, ok! there are more to cambodia than you and i, really!
Abhisit Vejjajiva is using land invasion as a scaped goat because they are going through their political turm oils. So, their government is trying to change the topic by misleading Seim people to focus on other things rather than on him as an incapable Prime Minister and they know it too well that the Temple is belonging to Khmer people but yet they are trying to make trouble to convey the Thai people to focus on something else rather than on him, on the other hand, it is a way of getting their people back on track, like instead of fighting with each why not fight with the Khmer? This is called politic! They are trying to promote love and unity for their own people and stop fighting each other. So, therefore Khmer government needs to learn more about politicians' intention because it could lead into an effective outcome for the whole nation just like Thai government does. Aust
well then, get rid of the pad thugs for a change, ok! pad is trying to steal khmer temple of preah vihear from cambodia! that is so illegal in accordance to international law and cambodia law! go back to nanchoa province of china and give back all of old khmer provinces to cambodia, ok!
