PHNOM PENH, Cambodia - A Cambodian court charged seven Thais, including a member of Parliament, on Thursday with illegally crossing the border in the latest flare-up of an often-strained relationship between the neighbours.
Thailand's Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya, who was dispatched to the Cambodian capital to negotiate the group's release, urged Cambodian authorities to speed the legal proceedings.
"We respect the judiciary of Cambodia," Kasit said through a translator. The ministry has said the group was inspecting the border area. "We have asked the government to complete the case as soon as possible."
The arrests occurred Wednesday in a disputed area of the frontier in Cambodia's northwestern Banteay Meanchey province. Among those arrested was lawmaker Panich Vikitsreth of the ruling Democrat party, a former aide to Kasit at the Foreign Ministry.
The Phnom Penn Municipal Court charged them with illegal entry and illegally entering a military base along the border, crimes that carry penalties of up to six months and one year, respectively, said deputy prosecutor Sok Roeun.
Cambodia's Foreign Minister Hor Namhong said the group crossed from Thailand's eastern Sa Kaew province and walked some 500 yards (meters) into Cambodian territory.
"They will not be released until the normal court procedure is completed," he said after meeting with Kasit.
Relations have been contentious for years, with the main focus on a border dispute near the 11th century Preah Vihear temple that has led to a series of small but sometimes deadly skirmishes.

To all Thai people who want to cross the border illegally to Cambodia for any purpose,
Please enter from the east side border, the Cambodian authority think that you are Vietnameses and they let you go free.

the siem thugs obviously have something going by sending these seven unruly pad thugs to intrude on purpose into cambodian territory. i have no doubt! they don't want a good relationship with cambodia in the first place, so, why we care! it is the law to capture and confine them just like they did to our people, and just like anybody else. this is not a joke that they can just do whatever they please with cambodia, you know! the khmer juries spoken! let them taste our law for a change!
the situation didn't help, as one of them was already involved illegally entered cambodia on the preah vihear case, and now they did this again in banteay meanchey province! shame on the unruly pad thugs!
here my khmer opinion to them, we don't want your relationship, stupid siem thugs! go back to nanchoa province of china, ok! bye bye!
stop taking advantage of cambodia, you stupid, evil, cruel siem pad thugs! your time will come sooner or later for abusing and taking advantage and bias, etc against cambodia for a long time now! i hate siem invaders!
PM Hun beware, Thailand will use this arrest to pretext the invasion of border post.
Remember the start of Preah Vihear saga in 08/2008.
if siem is not stupid they should let us use the law to deal with these intruders, really! if they protest it, it means they were in it together, all of them are criminal for condoning this serious violation of cambodian law, etc! think about it! hey, cambodia have law too, you know! didn't your ambassador educate your people about that?
Because of Khmers leaders are so stupid and idiot that's why Ah Siems and Ah Youns can look down on Khmers.
Believe me, Ah Hun Sen will release these Siems thugs soon.
for your information, it's not up to mr. hun sen to give them immunity, you know. mr. hun sen knows better. it's letting the law deal with them first, you know!
it was ordered by Hanoi to arrested them thais....
shut up with your youn conspiracy theory! cambodia is independent nation you immature monster!
Hun Sen is playing with fire and Cambodians will expensively pay for this !
shut up! it's these stupid siem that played with fire! what planet are you from anyway?
complete the case and put them in jail so next time other Thai want to cross the border they will think it twice.

This is the dirty stratergy from thai Game, It a Game, give ground to get ground, if we let them free next time thugs PAD will be in Preah Vihear or Siem reap. no one want to have propblem with Thai, and Thai MP they know law, boundery very clearly, but they doese it to gain somethings. Hun sen he is more smarter than those who used to call him AH. any way stope call people are Interlect people they never call their son Ah Ah, so why so many smarts in KI call hun sen Ah, I doubt about thise people being braind wash?
Thai PM entering Cambodia illegally 500 yards they got locked up in jail but vietnamese soldiers entering Cambodia freely up to a few thousands metters with no permission but they are ok with Hun Sen and CPP . Tell me if im wrong in this case .
That's very good if Hun Xen can do that, but I wonder why Hun Xen never put those illegal Yuons in jail?
It should be fairs, if we arrest Siem came to Khmer our land illegal. We've to arrest ah Vietcong too they came to our border with these fucking guns crossing to our border illegal. How come ah stupid CPP regimes don't arrest them mother fuckers tell me that asshole or your stupid CPP regimes afriads to arrest those animals Vietcong that crossing our border everyday 24/7. Don't just arrest only one side mother fuckers you've to arrest anybody that crossing to our border with out permit Ok dumbs ass especaily ah Youn black teeth Vietcong killers.
I don't think this is a real motive to arrest Thais citizen at all. It is a trick to let Vietnamese authority to arrest SRP members when they travel to check Cambodian demarcation posts with vietnam. Hun Sen wants to destroy SRP party.

Lok Sammak mit Huun Xen can't see Youn viet cat b/c youn make him to be khmer's leech.
HUN SEN should arrest those YUON that crossed into our land too in K.P Cham. They have trespassed a few 100 meters. They must be arrested as well.
Why doesn't king help khmer and save cambodia? Is king scare of dying for the people and nation? or king is afraid of losing the word "king kong" from his title???

This is the way Hun Sen welcoming youn into srok khmer by opening more border entence. How are we going to stop the million of youn in srok khmer aready. 7 Thai illegal immigrants will be dealt with the law, but the million of youn illegal immigrants he just lets them stay.
HunSen = youn every where in srok khmer = Mr. 99 years because every thing in srok khmer is for sale for 99 years by his government. Do you know how long it is 99 years?? They don't care they just want to make money know and let the next generation suffer. He also sould be called Khmer public enemy number one.

Fuck the Siem King and his warmongers!
These Siem bastard warmongers have no regard for human life, peace, liberty, and the basic of human right! They choose to do things base on emotion and blindly follow their patriotism ignoring all international law and order!
The Siem King has turn Thailand into a perverted country! Cambodia as a civilized nation must take a stand and say no to Siem perverted behavior!
To 4:09AM
Your logic is pure bullshit! Tell me how can the Vietcong arrest the SRP opposition from visiting the border posts when the fucken border posts located right in the middle of Cambodian orchard and on Cambodian farmer! Do you think that the SRP Oppositions are stupid enough not to use GPS to know where the hell is Cambodian territories?
The Vietcong will never dare touch SRP opposition because they know that their naked aggression go against international law and law! If AH HUN SEN dare to bring out the Vietcong naked aggression to international community and the Vietcong will be persecuted under international law!
As a slave to the Vietcong AH HUN SEN pretend to be deaf, blind, and speechless and leave it to Cambodian next generation to solve it!
