Military commanders from Cambodia and Thailand held meetings along the border today in a bid to defuse a spike in military tensions, a military official said.
In recent days, Cambodia has deployed infantry, tanks and heavy artillery along the Thai border in response to a demand from Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva that Cambodian flags be removed from Wat Keo Sekha Kirisvara, a pagoda close to Preah Vihear.
A Royal Cambodian Armed Forces official based at Preah Vihear, who declined to be named, said today that military commanders based at Phnom Trop and Ta Thav met to affirm their positions and damp down tensions.
“The situation is fragile, as troops from both sides are on alert,” he said, adding: “We have reinforced our troops only for defending our territory.”
The official said that during the talks, Thai commanders asked why Cambodia had moved troops into border areas.
The Cambodian commanders said the movements were in response to Abhisit’s demands for the removal of the flags, as well as the apparent Thai plans to hold military exercises close to the border.
“We will not allow them to enter Cambodian soil to remove the flags,” the official said. “Thailand has added troops and heavy weapons along the border and we have acted in kind.”
Srey Doek, military commander of RCAF Military Division 3 based at Preah Vihear, declined to comment.
Thai Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwon said today that the fresh deployments of Cambodian troops and armour in border areas adjoining Sisaket province were no cause for worry, the Bangkok Post reported.
“I believe there are no serious problems on the Thai-Cambodian border,” Prawit said.
“The Foreign Ministry should be able settle the dispute through talks.”
The military talks come a day ahead of the trial at Phnom Penh Municipal Court of Veera Somkwamkid, a high-profile Thai Yellow Shirt activist, and his secretary Ratree Taiputana Taiboon.
The pair were part of a group of seven Thais who were arrested for trespassing on Cambodian territory in Banteay Meanchey province on December 29.
The group reportedly travelled to the border to “investigate” the demarcation of the countries’ shared border.
Information Minister Khieu Kanharith, who met with Yellow Shirt representatives today in Phnom Penh, confirmed that Veera will face court today.
He added that he was powerless to act on requests that he intervene to free the two defendants.
“We cannot do anything before the court proceeding as it is illegal,” he said.
“The government cannot interfere with the court’s affairs.”

Cambodian troops sometimes give up their lives for three reasons: for friendship, for love, and for an ideal. And one of the specialty of ideal is to protect the motherland from letting the Thai MOTHER FUCKER encroach into Cambodia. At one hand, MOTHER-FUCKER THAILAND use the political stratagem to solve the peaceful means with Cambodian troops; and on the other hand, MOTHER-FUCKER THAILAND has scared to my ass when the Thai troops saw Cambodia deployed sophisticated weapons such as BM 21-23, fighting amphibians, DF-21A and 21D, stinger missiles, T-54/55s and countless heavy artilleries to Preah Vihear. To my perspective, the negotiation between Cambodia-Thailand on the border issue will be soon feckless; and both countries definitely will engage a war along the border. THAILAND will not survive soon after the Chinese J-20 is accomplished. Cambodia will be easily able to invade Thailand.
siem can't even have their people talk to cambodia without the pad thugs illegal demand interferring with their talk, etc. the problem with siem is that they cannot decide which map to use. as for cambodia, we only honored the internationally recognized border line maps from the international treaty of 1907 that started the present-day khmer-siem delimited boundary line, etc... because without this international treaty of 1907, there would be no international boundary line with all of cambodia's neighboring countries and so forth, really! so, it is up to siem gov't to respect the international treaty of 1907, despite it was french colonizer and the then gov't of siem under their respected king chulalongkorn, etc..., you know! it is illegal and not supported by the international diplomatic community, etc for siem gov't to tolerate the siem pad thugs illegal demand a century plus later and so on! siem pad thugs demand is only work for siem in their own country, but internationally speaking, pad thugs demand has no legitimate claim whatsoever outside of thailand, really! that's the reality, whether siem pad thugs and their gangster gov't accept it or not, you know! cambodia lost too much lands and territories already given our former lands and territories spread out beyond present-day boundary of cambodia in the past. so, for siem pad thugs to shamelessly making illegal demand like this is ludicrous, really!
Good luck for you J-20! Ching Chong!
And Fly by ah KwacK??
Can ah Kwack know east nor west?
And toll him the gear is between his leg! And Piseth Polica is waitting for him so Ah Hok landy!
What is Chinese J-20? Do we (Khmers) have some of those?
Attention Siem soldiers! when you sleep, you play the game, Siem soldiers will infiltrate the Khmer territory, and we risk being butchered by Siems.
1:22AM! J-20 is a new air plane made by China whick can not be seen by the rada! so claime by the chinese!
Only America have this kind of plane not even Russia nor England!

siem pad thugs is good at making illegal demand by dictating to their siem gov't only, but they have no credential on the international scene, really! so, siem gov't should not tolerate and let pad thugs run amok in their country like this at the expense of cambodia, ok!
Hey! can the general play phone game?
This asshole suppose guard and watching? If i was his enemy, i'll sneak behind and cut his ball off...so, he will become Ah Be'De' for good! Asshole!
Cambodia must shoot'Fire' our long range artillery back toward Thailand! I hope we got some..? Thailand will do this shit again toward the Temple and trying to destroy Temple! We must Fire back heavy artillery at them...
Come on Thai let’s have a war. We know you, the yellow shirts, use Cambodia as a scapegoat to achieve your political goal. Heh many thanks, you might also give the Cambodian the opportunity for an uprising to topple Hun Sen, the barking CHIHUAHUA.
So let’s have a real war shall we, don’t just make noise. Besides a few thousand deaths on both sides, it will be a win, win situation for the yellow shirts and the oppressed Cambodian people who hate Hun Sen.
The reason the Cambodian soldier on the picture playing game because he is not afraid. Fighting is nothing new to him. He is probably a former Khmer Rough fighter. He knows Thai soldiers would even dare look him in the eyes. Therefore, what make you think they will have the balls to sneak and cut his throat?
He knows what the enemy can and can not do. The Thai soldiers probably looked at him and said to themselves, damn, even with our tanks pointing at him, not he doesn't look worried or scared. I hope I don't have to face him in a fight. He could probably kill me with his IPhone.
3:02AM! man with small brain!
1- the Khmer Rouge fighter can not be so young!
2-Carelessness and stupidity not the signe of bravery!
Yes he may trainning for flying J-20, who know?
CAN we Cambodia depend on ah Kwack and his stupid force tp protect us id they not hire by the Youn to grab our land?
You don't have to talk about what kind of weapon each side have because when the first shot is fired you need some one to stay and fire the weapon.
Do you remember the last time they faced each others, who droped the weapons and ran ????
That's what happen when you have not been in the battle field !!!
The KR soldiers were trained and fought just like special forces. They don't need hundreds of soldiers to go and shoot at you, they just send 5 to ten soldiers to disturb you every night until you are sick and tired of it. That's all they do !!!!!
At the end you will abandon your post and run home.
I agree! this guy probably got used to the war, he's doesn't care much...But compared to Thai soldiers, they are so scare, shaken like salting fish, and shits in their pants..I spoke to one soldier, he told me that he started fighting since he was 11 year old..? I asked, did you have school? Nope! Khmer soldiers are brave...
3:14AM! remember when your special force run from the east to west!
They so special of force they do not know how to deffend their country and people!
Are you ready to be refugee in Vietname or Loas?
Ready to run anyway, so who care what kind of weapon and strong the enemy has! RUN IS RUN!!!!faster the better to be a better fighter tommorow for a fool!
But they all are very good fighters with their own people who don't have any guns!!!
This guy did not know anything..? You have to blamed the leader for that, in pol pot's time, if you were a soldier, you must taken an order, if you don't, you and your family will be kill the same way like those khmer victims! Example, i send you to kill someone, after you finish your job, i will have you killed too, than kill they guy who jus killed you...on and on? never stop! Only me, still living..you got that? This is how Angka Pol Pot doing that time!! This young soldiers are victims like us too!!
The Thai are itching for a war since they never have a real one over a century ago with the French, and that war made them sign the treaty of 1907.
So it is about time to let them feel what a real will be like.
Cambodia might not win the war, but she will inflict a lot of pain and suffering to the Thai people.
For a century Thailand has lived in peace and prosperity, Cambodia went through many wars and sufferings, so together we can bring our countries back to the Stone Age, and then we can live happily ever after, because there would be nothing left to fight for.
sorry i can't fight samdach train me to kill onlly khmer.....
IS ah kwack WAS one of them ot IS one of them?
The running strong man!?
Svay Siphan said ah Kwack and the rest never allow to carry gun in the Vietname invasion of Cambodia! Do ma what ah monkoes do? Suck thump?!
I was told by someone i used to know him, he told me that, when AngKa send you to kill someone, you and your family already threaten, they will kill you too..It just matter of time! Mafia ganster doing the samething? They send the guy to kill another, and latter they have him kill too! Only the big boss living....This is Ho Chi Minh idea! Chiek Smao! You must Chiek Taeng Reus!
if you examine the stupid KR policy, it's all about killing and ridding of anyone who they find suspicious in their way to control the country and the population, etc! they have no law, no freedom, whatever! none! if that's not stupid, then tell me what was it? they stupid KR leadership was living in a dream land of communism utopia, and so forth without understanding that the world is big out there and what they did to cambodia is short-lived and destructive indeed! these dumb KR leaders showed the world the pure consequence of ignorance vs educated or intellectual people and so forth! any regime anywhere in the world, if they don't learn from this stupid KR ideology of backward will doom shortly as the big is much bigger than just a handful of dictators out there! cambodia got a taste of communism, and all can say it was very distasteful, indeed! look around the world, communism is not popular and all were short-lived! why? it was partly due to their backwardness, their suppression of freedom of movement, freedom of speech, lack of human rights, lack of gov't services, etc, etc... we all can sure learn from this dark history of cambodia, really!
4:02AM! that a good comment!
But ah Kwack Hun Xen and ah Svay Sipha, instead of leurn from Pol Pot fault , Motherfuckers coppy from it>
But from killing motherfucker use prisonning! From ANKAR mother fucker use law and constitution!
What the fucking PhD!!!!! Motherefuckers do not know people need to write a good laws to serve population not a group of people!
Third party needed to solve the border problem with Thailand. Thailand is a trouble maker and confused country. I don't know who run this country, the PAD THAI or the Abhisit government???
The issue of Preah Vihear is a sensitive one where Thais has been taught by history books that have been altered to glorify their kings agains the Khmer ethnic whose empire conquered much of Thailand and Southeast Asia.
A lot of resource being wasted by both countries for such a small piece of land that has always been Cambodia's until Cambodian preah Vihear was granted world status by the UNESCO and the Khmer temple has become a symbol of dispute. But Thailand is happy to do so to drum up hatred and or national sentiment for political gains. Every political group in Thailand use this border/Preah Vihear whenever they see fit.
When issue escalate to involve international community, Thailand will appease Cambodia. Then later, Thailand would do the same exact things in square one; everything starts all over again. So I don't think this border will solve between the two countries. To solve it once and for all, a third party must step in and border must be demarcated clearly so that Cambodians will be killed again for any war reasons. We must move on to do something better for our country.
Thailand don't care about us. Their continuing poking on Cambodia serves their country's interest very well even when they have to sell their creditability amid world community. Cambodia must not allow this to happen even we have to go to war.
it's true that the KR intimidated everyone, soldier, workers, even people in their own echalon, etc. under their brutal policy, no matter who you are, if you don't carry out what they told or instructed you to do, not only you, but your whole family too will be killed. this kind of intimidation was partly to blame for what went on under the crazy KR policy which these assholes are in control and were responsible for, really! all of their asshole leadership must be held accountable for what happened in cambodia under their stone age, communism policy, really! the bottom line was, they killed people and instill fear in people by their way of killing, killing and more killing! imagine when you are told that your life and your loved ones lives are to be killed, you have no hope and felt helpless whatsoever, really!

every khmer person should set differing politics agenda aside if war to break out between cambodia and thailand and we must unite at all cost to fend off the historical enemy of the cambodia, the siem thieves! everyone of khmer person should help to educate each other to unite against the common enemy that wanted to steal from us again and again. we stand together to demand that siem stop doing this kind of trick to cambodia by getting a third party in the world e.g. the UN security council, etc to step up international law enforcement once and for all so in the future siem cannot stake illegal claim to our lands, territories, khmer heritage, etc like this again! from this, we should completely demarcate our international borderlines once and for all so to prevent any future greed and aggression from these neighboring countries again! if we don't settle this now for good, it will come back in the future in circle. so, fix it now with rule of law and make it permanent so siem cannot steal from us again!
I remembered in the meeting, khmer rouge people told us that you must kill your mother, your father, all your family...if they were found to be> (KHMANG!-enemy, during that time they can say anything, no matter you were khmang or not? Living in that time, no matter who you are, all people are victims!! former kr soldiers, or no don't matter at all..Its just matter of time that will be killed!
5:01AM! can you leurne it and refuse to be told like a poppet!
Stand as a man refuse to do bad thing to inocent people! Be educated alitle do not act stupid as PhD from Hanoi tell you to do!
FUCK THE DICKHEAD DICTATOR!!!!!!!!
4:39! can you get kill with no reason? that the trick of the fucking Vietnamese again to killing us in borowing hand!

Everyone seem to blame Pol Pot but who let Pol Pot took power, it was intellectual corrupt Lon Nol sold arm to Pol Pot and strike, the Chinese mechandise took control of economy, the inflation sky rocket, and in those day everybody dream of liberation, and now if you are not careful history will repeat itself. Bad guy like Pol Pot had supporters.
In the past Pharmacist are great career but today Pharmacist profession is the same as Accountant Graduate. They are facing unemploy and the wage is keep going down hill at Australia as well as United State. Most Pharmacist are part time empoly only, No sick leave, no holiday pay, work as casual who say Pharmacists are rich is very wrong. Actually register nurse is even better than Pharmacist profession in term of wage and working condition. Please don't tell your kid to become pharmacist that is very bad idea.
Pharmacist in real working world is like a sell men or sell women. The boss push the pharmacist to increase sell or the Pharmacist has to terminate by the boss. Customers don't respect pharmacist at all, Pharmacist do everything in the small shop including cleaning, put stock away, invoicing, marketing for front shop, kiss ass customers everyday so hope they would come back.
Pharmacist hardly advice customer to use the medication properly because time is money.
Most pharmacist really on MIMS software to check interaction. Pharmacist read the MIMS from the computer before they advice customer. If the customers ask hard question Pharmacist refer to Doctor.
Please don't push your children to be Pharmacist. It is not that great profession because everyday Pharmacist meet sick,rude and crazy customers and the wage is going down hill nowaday.
Ah Dogs CPP how come I never heard your talking about Youn Vietcong border mother fuckers tell me why mother fucker why I only heard your talks only the Siamese border why tell me now mother fuckers.
Dear Dr. Hun Sen and Ten Thousands stars Dr. Hun Manet,
Why do you and your relatives give Kos Trol, sea and lands to Vietnam? Why? and Why?
Why do you and all of your relatives involve a lot of murder cases in Cambodia? Why? Why?
Why do you murder Cambodian K5, 1997 events and so on and so on with lost count? Why?
If you are so good why do you and your families murder Cambodians? Why? And Why?
If you are so good, why do above 90% Cambodians are so poor but you and your relatives are billionaires and millionaires? Why? Why?
Why do you try to kill people from telling the true? Why? Why?
What is the difference from Khmer Rough and you, Sir?
If you are so good why do you block KI from Cambodians?
If you are so good, why do you steal all Cambodian life such as well being, health, cut down Cambodians life expectancy as well? But you and your small group are eat well, sleep well, exercise well, have oversea doctors and best medical treatment from high class private doctors from oversea. Most Cambodians that have no money, your healthcare system left Cambodians patients to die in front of your hospital. Why? Why?
If you are so good why more than 6 millions Vietnamese are living permanently in Cambodia, right now? Why, Dr. Hen Sen? And Why
Everywhere, I walk in Cambodia I see Vietnamese speak Vietnamese every where, why? Why?
Don't you and your families scare of hell for eternity?
When you die can you bring all of your power and money with you?
Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Big ass lady and his beloved 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.
CPP are not just corrupted, CPP are extremely corrupt. They are even sell the country such as Kos Trol, Seas, lands, Cambodian people, Cambodian health and well being, all resources in the Cambodia…with lost count. You name it!
Seriously where is the win win policy of Dr. Hun Sen represent? The country is getting smaller and smaller and shame by Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet and his families, his relatives and friends.
government of Cambodia is not dog of thai anymore, you must fortify to prevent uor territorial integrety of Cambodia.
If thai come one kill one, come one hundred kill one hundred, come one thousand kill ten thousand kill kill kill kill kill kill kill
