[Thai] Governor: 7 Thais knew they intruded

The seven Thais arrested in Cambodia for illegal entry on Dec 29 knew that they had entered Cambodian territory, Sa Kaeo governor Sanit Naksooksri said on Tuesday.

Mr Sanit said the government could not make the excuse that the seven Thais led by Democrat Party MP Panich Vikitsreth and yellow-shirt activist Veera Somkwamkid had lost their way and entered Cambodia accidentally.

"Negotiations for their release will likely be more difficult because a yellow-shirt activist is also in the group," he said.

The governor said a group of People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) supporters had arrived on Sa Kaeo to stage a protest against the arrests last night. However, security personnel will not allow them to rally near the border area for safety reasons.


"Thai-Cambodian relations remain cordial and we depend on each other, but o people from the outside do not understand the situation.

"It is quite normal for the yellow-shirt group to protest, but I'm afraid they might cause trouble for local people," Mr Sanit said.

The PAD leaders said they planned to rally in Sa Kaeo for two days.

National Security Council (NSC) secretary-general Thawil Pliensri said authorities were seeking the release of the seven Thais through negotiations, since the border is a sensitive issue.

Should burn 3 coffins with a picture of Mr Abhisit, Panich Vikitsreth and PAD co-leader Veera Somkwamkid on each coffin.

Let Abhisit come to Phnom Penh to kiss Hun Sen's ass and say sorry if he want those 7 Thai people to release because Abhisit is the one who sent those 7 Thai to cross the border.

PAD are stupid and hard head and they have no common sense . They can't tell the difference between what's wrong and what's right . If they are smart, they wont protest again Cambodia and demand the release of those 7 Thai because they entered Cambodia illegally , they are not innocent. If they say sorry and ask for forgiveness , it might help .

I think our "TRG" the Khmer gangs are better than the Yellow Shirts.
We should let the TRG teach the Yellow shirts and give them some good lessons.

Democrat lawmaker Panich lied about him entering Cambodia illegally. He does this without shame. I wonder how many Thais citizens he lied to eversince he's in the Democrat party office.

Thai people: do you want a liar to be your representative?
