It will be Hun Sen's first visit to Thailand since the two neighbouring countries downgraded ties and recalled their ambassadors in November after the Cambodian leader appointed ousted former Thai prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra as an economic adviser.

The fugitive ex-premier now lives abroad, mostly in Dubai. He frequently addresses his red-shirted supporters via video link. The demonstrators have been encamped at Bangkok's Phan Fah Bridge for more than a week to pressure Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva to dissolve parliament.

I know too many Thai people know very well how to welcome Mr. Hun Sen at Hua Hin? This low lives khmer prime minister very disgust with no education back ground create the hate among his country men and women,praying insulting this man have a short live so Cambodian and Cambodia people will be living in peace and prosper.
So who the hell is your high lives Khmer prime minister anyway?
I agree that Hun Sen is not highly educated and his government is corrupt. However, he is still better than the others.
Unless you are not Khmer, you wont understand at length about Cambodia.
Why you worry about the Red while the yellow is the one who intends confronting Hun Sen
Oh give me a break what is good a bout a dumb ass and hungry for power ? Only the ignorant that agree to accept the dumb leaders I prefer the freshly educated new generation who be able to speaks influence in western languages not youn so they can catch up with the world speedy
Killer blood thirst iron claws lawlessness oppression dictator addicting with the power for no leader skill damn I am no support it especially a khmer rouge like Hun Sen
Oh big joke for a stinky mouthed prime minister Hun Sen ,if some one has said he is better.
Again, Chinese always put their people first, no matter what; Chinese has already done it and planned it. They have already built their three or four major damp or rivers to stock water up for their own needs before it comes down to others needs. Chinese never care about rights or justices, all they care is making sure they get what they want first without consulting others around them. So, when this summit comes, it will make no different as they already planned. You see, Chinese is a supper power country and is the richest country in the world. Why? because chinese has never involved in war but to use secret tactic to kill people around the world, like selling arms and let them kill their own people just like Khmer killed Khmer, but you ask where do guns or others artillery come from? China,> So, just be careful, don't make a fool of yourselves. The only thing we need to do is, do the same as they do! try to build our damps as well. Wisdom
THAI don't needed to spend too much money and focusing only Hun Sen treating him the same as others leaders. THAI special treatment for Hun Sen is going cut THAI throat by Hun Sen.
The Homeless Cambodian leader could see only the THAI border and insulted THAI Prime Minister while he is ignoring everything on the Vietnamese side.
May Hun Sen be assinated by the red-shirt gunman. That day, Cambodian people will have freedom and prosperity.
