Cambodian troops have removed and destroyed the controversial "Here! is Cambodia" sign on the disputed border near Preah Vihear.
Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva announced this morning that the sign, set in stone, had been removed.
Photographs later today confirmed the stone tablet had been shattered by Cambodian soldiers acting under orders.
"It's a good thing Cambodian authorities have cooperated with us," Mr Abhisit said.
Cambodia put the controversial stone tablet up after Thai soldiers withdrew from Kaew Sikha Khiri Sikha Sawara temple, on the disputed land around Preah Vihear, on Dec 1 last year.
The sign initially read "Here! is the place where Thai troops invaded Cambodian territory on July 14, 2008."
After Thai authorities on Monday asked Cambodia to remove the tablet, the Cambodian army yesterday replaced it with a sign reading "Here! is Cambodia".
This sparked further angry protest.
Army Region 2 commander Thawatchai Samutsakorn said he and a contingent of Thai troops on Wednesday afternoon went to Kaew Sikha Khiri Sikha Sawara temple to meet Cambodia's deputy supreme commander Jai Dara.
Lt Gen Thawatchai said he and Gen Jai disucssed the issue and Gen Jai later ordered the Cambodian soldiers to demolish the sign as he watched.
Both sides agreed that there will not be any structures in the disputed border area indicating ownership rights, Lt Gen Thawatchai said.
He said it was a sensitive issue, but the atmosphere of the meeting was positive.

What a loss of face! If the government is not ready to stand up, why did it put the new sign at the first place?
I don't think Thailand will go to war against Cambodia over the disputed land. Thais are just barking, and sadly Hun Sen got scared.
You're right 11:17PM. Next time, Siems demand Hun Sen take off his cloth and walk nake in public. Will Hun Sen do that? I think he will. Have your cameras ready folks!
Why? Because YUON can have a piece of that pie so Thai wants that fair share too.
If Hun Sen be tough on all fronts, the Thai ambition wouldn't happened.
Look at on the east border with YOUN at KP. Cham province for example. They (Youn) had planned the border mark right near the house of Monkey Heng Samrin and Hun Sen government done nothing to stop them. So Thai is now really wants that 4.6km2.
Mark my words, Hun Sen must request to UN or use the 1991 Paris Peace Agreement to bring them to UN Court again. If not this thing will not solve anything.
Khmer Poipet,
I think Thailand threaten Force, just bluffing or barking, because of those Thai people that we put them on trial, but Hun Sen got scared and pissed in his pant, you guys are right! Why bother put the damn sign in the first place? Yep! very embarrass!!

Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Big ass lady and his belove Dr. Hun Manet Please don't put us in jail or kill us for this! We want to live like you and your families do!
Khmers victim of 1997 and K5
PS
If Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet remove the tablet it is show they are extremely coward and his star are just joy stars given by his daddy not by patriotism. Dr. Hun Manet is very coward as his daddy they only aim to kill innocent cambodians that all. Dr. Hun SEn and Dr. ten stars Hun Manet are very great at bullying cambodians and killing Cambodians but cowardly toward Thai and Viet.
Seriously where is the win win policy of Dr. Hun Sen represent. The country is getting smaller and shamer by Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet.
