Dear my Khmer army, at this moment please be calm, attack back but try to avoid big fight, because Ah Siem try to bring the Bangkok issue to the border to stop their red and yellow trouble.
Wait until they (red and Yellow) kill each other first then we don't care to attack them in full scale if they start first again.
