BANGKOK, Dec 30 (TNA) - Thailand's Minister of Foreign Affairs Kasit Piromya on Wednesday urged Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen to show concern for better long term relations between the two kingdoms by not getting involved with convicted Thai premier Thaksin Shinawatra.
Mr Kasit said as long as PM Hun Sen has cordial relations with the fugitive ex-premier and sets this amicable relationship as his standpoint in bilateral relations, Thailand cannot accept the condition.
"Neither I nor Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva have any personal conflict with Mr Hun Sen and Mr Thaksin," said the Thai foreign minister, "I have known Mr Hun Sen for over 20 years and know his style of working very well, so I don't want Mr Hun Sen to get involved with the convicted ex-premier for the sake of good bilateral relations."
Mr Kasit reiterated that Mr Thaksin is a fugitive, wanted by the Thai authorities, and that he has undermined Thai society and continues even now.
Ousted by a bloodless coup d'etat on September 19, 2006, Mr Thaksin fled the country over one year ago before the Supreme Court's Criminal Division for Holders of Political Positions sentenced him to a two-year jail term for malfeasance in regard to the controversial Bangkok Ratchadapisek land purchase case.
The diplomatic row between Thailand and Cambodia flared up after the Cambodian government appointed the fugitive ex-Thai premier as its economic adviser and personal adviser to Mr Hun Sen.
The Thai government recalled its ambassador to Phnom Penh in retaliation, while Cambodia then withdrew its ambassador to Bangkok.
The Cambodian government also refused to extradite Mr Thaksin as requested by Thailand and arrested a Thai engineer working at Thai-owned Cambodia Air Traffic Services (CATS) on charges of passing privileged information on the flight details of Mr Thaksin during his first visit as advisor to Cambodia to a Thai diplomat.
The Thai employee was sentenced to seven years jail and fined Bt100,000 (US$3,000) but later was released following a royal pardon granted by the Cambodian king.
The Cambodian premier was recently quoted in foreign media as saying he is unhappy as long as Thai premier Abhisit and Mr Kasit are still in their posts.

what ai kwaishit and aibullshit are playing nice and civilized now with a few soothing words and overtures? as far as hun sen is concern, they can kiss his black ass. just kiss it. stupid siems.
Hun Sen wants put Taksin to PM seat because he disapprove Coup d'Etat and soon he will also put back Ranarith to PM seat.
Hun Sen and Apisit should be down and Ranarith and Taksin should on the PM seats.
Well as long long as you don't recognize Preah Vihear as Cambodia property and remove your troops from the border, there is no point to improve relationship. The ball is in your court Mr. Kasit.
These 2 posters above are dumb and dumb. All they do is bla bla.. have no substances, no clues, but dumb.
Why don't you dumb 2 know Abhisit deported 4000's Hmongs to Laos? It was because the US released Gen Vang Pao, because the US just wanted to please Hanoi's request.
Now that the US knew Hanoi works with China, Hmong leader Gen Vang Pao released, and Anhisit cannot afford to lost power to Thaksin, he has to corporate with Hanoi by sending these Hmongs back. These Hmongs were going to be used by Thailand in case war break out between Thai and Laos.
What are 4000 Hmonks concerned with Khmer-Thai relation ?

You are the only "Khmer Pou Ke Men Ten". The rest of the Khmers are dump, dump.........
jungle fox and wild fox try to be united relation ship ,I don't think so if it can wow """"""
Post 1:24AM, i'm with you 100% dude! you have read my mind...Stupid bastard Kasit doesn't know what ta hell he's talking about...? as long as Thailand still invading cambodian, there's will be no good relationship period...!
The reason Hun Sen appointed Thaksin because of Kasit and Abhishit screwed him up with the invading and of course the Preah vihear issues...
It is a well calculated tactic employed by the current Bangkok administration to get even with Cambodia abot the Preah Vihear temple or may be they think they would want to teach Cambodia a lesson.
All Thais and other around the world know that Thaksin has been trotting the world and life in one Arab country, Bangkok administration does not bother to ask for arrest and extradite from those country. The Bangkok adminstration plays a stay put game and wait for Thaksin to arrive in Cambodia then starts to take action.
Clever plan but stupid move. I cannot see the Phnom Penh administration would hand over Thaksin to Thailand.
At the end this 2 goat will lost their power and they're will go to pp to suck hun sen balls. you all will see.
Piromya needs to examine your head whether your are all right to issue this statement or not. The issues are not rest in Hun Sen hand, it was manifested by yourself that you wanted power and condemned Hun Sen to gain your popularity in yellow shirt.
Piromya, you are playing with fire. The fire is burning you, Cambodia is not subject to your team. Cambodia is sovereign country, Cambodia no need you.
I thought AH KASHIT priority is to take Hun Sen’s blood to wash with his feet! So now AH KASHIT has change his priority? This is the same old Siem flip and flop politic.

How can you maintain a good relationship when you send your troops to invade and occupy someone territory..KASHIT POOP?? Yep, he's really need his head check by the doctor...
By the way those border marks, or border stakes along cambodia/Thai border that can't be found, i think Thais had pull them out somehow, and trying to steal more of khmer lands...there's 33 more still missing!!
Tricky Siamese bastard..
Kasit and Abhisit trying to upgrade their fame...by lying to Thais people again, hahaha! loser!
