Cambodia not to extradite Thaksin if Thaksin seeks shelter: gov't spokesman

PHNOM PENH, Oct. 23 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia will reject the demand of extradition of former Thai Premier Thaksin Shinawatra, if Thai government put forward such demand when Thaksin seeks shelter in Cambodia, Cambodian government spokesman said in a statement released on Friday.

"Cambodian government will reject the demand of Thai government to extradite Thaksin for political reasons, if Thaksin Shinawatra agrees to live in Cambodia," the statement said.

It is Cambodia's response to Thailand after Thai government said that Thailand plans to use its extradition agreement between the two countries if Thaksin accepts Hun Sen's invitation to travel to Cambodia and live there.

Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Wednesday said that he welcomed former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin to visit Cambodia and he could provide a residence for him. Hun Sen made the remarks during his meeting with visiting former Thai premier Chavalit Yongchaiyudh who paid a one-day visit here on Wednesday at the invitation of Prime Minister Hun Sen.

According to Cambodia's state-run television TVK, Hun Sen also called Thaksin Shinawatra his "eternal friend."

I would like to see Thai's gov't stop speaking about their own political views and pin point it onto Cambodia as Cambodia has enough problem as it is if MrThaksin decided to come to Cambodia, it is at his own will and they have to deal with it themselves. It is like two brothers fighting with each other and than one decided to run to the neighbour's house to seek for help. As a good neighbour we can not sack this person away and say get out. Buddha and Christ said "When people knock the door will be opened and when people ask for help he/she will get helped'. So, as for Thai gov't you have no right to get upset with the helper but you can get upset with your own brother. So, you must separate between the helper and the seeker. Aust

10:46PM you have a mental issues, your language can say alot about you. Your language is only for you to understand. 5:03PM did not speak about the criminal person or being kidnaped. He/she is talking about the person who seek help to avoid from probabley being persecuted by his bully gangers or bad brothers of his extra but Thai government accusing or telling Khmer government about what to do. e.g. on the spot light. Anyway, you can use constructive criticism and no need to swear or curse people like you do, so it your curse comes back to you. Shame on you.Lol
