Cambodia has violated the Thai-Cambodian memorandum of understanding signed in 2000 by encroaching on the Thai territory first, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said during his weekly broadcast on Sunday morning.
Mr Abhisit said the government had finished writing a letter explaining to the United Nations that Thailand did not threaten to use military force against Cambodia, as claimed by the Cambodian government.
"Thailand is committed to solve the border dispute peacefully under the 2000 MoU," the premier said.
Cambodian was the only side trying to list as a world heritage site of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation. The Thai government had been clarifying the situation to foreign countries to avoid misunderstanding, he said.
A committee had been set up to help oversee the issue, he added.

how????? Abhisit is becoming a comedian now..... how ridiculous it is!
Thus, both countries need someone (court) to judge who violate or invade other territory.
Thai PM Abhisit really right. It is time for him to bring this conflict to UN Security Concil or ICJ.

Well articulated Mr Vijajiva. The MOU was forced on Cambodia in 2000 while Cambodians and the Buddhist temple in the Cambodian territories at Preah Vihear had been there before that year. The MOU stresses the use of the French map of 1908. Abhisit uses this argument only to claim that the land surrounding Preah Vihear belongs to Thailand. Abhisit knows that Thailand will not proceed with the demarcation with the French map as stated in the MOU because that maps shows clearly that the 4.6 km square belongs to Cambodia. It is Thailand that incroaches in the Cambodian territories, right now at Preah Vihear, at Tamoeun Temples, and at sea.
Two Cambodian soldiers were executed on the spot last year by Thai soldiers at Preah Vihear simply because the two Cambodian officers checked the coordinates of the territory with a GPS in the area occupied by Thai soldiers.
After Cambodia gained independance from France in 1953, the government of Prince Sihanouk sent two policemen to guard Preah Vihear Temple and the border at Preah Vihear. The all powerfull Field Marshall Phiboonsongkram sent Thai soldiers to occupy Preah Vihear. When the Cambodian policemen refused to leave, Thai soldiers tied them up, tortured them and slit their throads.
That prompted Prince Sihanouk and his government to bring the case to the International Court of Justice which declared that Preah Vihear at surrounding territories belonged to Cambodia. Thailand had an obligation to withdraw troups and equipment from Preah Vihear and surrounding territories as defined by the French map.
Now what MR Vijajiva?
May I repeat again the Cambodian Govt must take the disputed case to the U.N Security Council. Stop wasting times with idiot Thia govt.
Two Cambodian soldiers were executed by Thai soldiers 12:32 PM ? You must have been on drug . Don't twist the truth .. Those two soldiers died during the first fighting broke out with Thai soldiers . Do your research before you make any comments .
Cambodia list cambodia property,
WE NEVER SEEN ANY SITTING PRIME MINISTER WHO IS SO FUCKING IDIOT LIKE THE CAMBODIAN PRIME MINISTER, AND THE PEOPLE OF CAMBODIA SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES TO HAVE SUCH BULLSHIT PRIME MINISTER REPRESENTING CAMBODIA AND ITS PEOPLE. THIS PRIME MINISTER IS SUCH A FUCKING IDIOT.
Since Hun Sen was a Khmer Rouge commander, now a Khmer Rouge leader and had many of his political opponents and journalists assassinated, I wonder if he have any plan to assassinate the Thai Prime Minister (Ahbullshit Vejjajiva)?
