Cambodia and Thailand have pledged to boost bilateral trade, despite military confrontation in the border disputed areas near the temple of Preah Vihear, a World Heritage site.

At his meeting with the visiting Thai Deputy Prime Minister, Trairong Suwankiri, on February 17, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said that Cambodia's policy is to minimise disputes with Thailand.

PM Hun Sen also emphasised the necessity to control the dispute along the border, to prevent its further spread, and expand cooperation in other fields such as economics, trade, investment, tourism and culture.

For his part, Deputy PM Suwankiri thanked the Cambodian government for coordinating efforts in organising the annual Thailand-Cambodia Trade Fair in Phnom Penh from February 17-20.


During his visit, Suwankiri attended the opening of the trade fair, which has attracted 150 Thai businesses and 25 Cambodian enterprises.

Bilateral trade between Cambodia and Thailand amounted to US$2.54 billion in 2010, up 54 percent over the previous year. Of the sum, Cambodia’s exports were almost US$215 million, while its imports reached US$2.34 billion.

Why do Kos Trol, sea and lands proximately over 10 000 km2 have been lost to Vietnam by who treaty? Why don't Cambodia goverment transparency explain to cambodia army at front line and the whole nation about this? Why don't they include this into education system? Why?

Cambodian army are fighting at front line for 4.6 km2 and what's about over 10 000km2 of cambodia to Vietnam. Nobody dare to talk about it! Why? Cambodian army you are decide the fade of your nation, Cambodian army as well as cambodian people must rethink about this again and again. Is it fair?

Kos Trol, Sea and lands over 10 000km2 have been lost to Vietnam by who treaty at 1979 to 1985 treaty! treaty! Cambodian army at front line as well as all cambodian people must rethink again about these issues. Are cambodian army fighting to protect the Cambodia Nation or protect a very small group that own big lands, big properties or only protecting a small group rather in the real name of protecting khmer nation?

Cambodian army at front line suffer under rain, wind, bullets, bombs,lack of foods, lack of nutrition, their families have no health care help, no securities after they die but a very small group eat well, sleep well, sleep in first class hotel with air conditioning with young girls message, have super health care from oversea medical treatment, they are billionairs, millionairs who sell out the country to be rich and make cambodian people suffer everyday as cambodian people know already.

Who signed the treaty 1979-1985 that result lost over 10 000 km2 of Cambodia??? Why don't they transparency inform all Cambodian and cambodian army at front line about these issues? Why don't include Kos Trol ( Kos Trol size is bigger than the whole Phom Phen with planty of natural resources ) in education

Thai has American and UN full support. Small Asean countrues can't do much good to Cambodia. Where are their weapons come from? They just come to suck Cambodia natural resource such oil 2012 and mine, forest, lands, sea as China and Vietnam demonstrate in the past 1970-Now. ( China support Khmer rough give rushty AK and now weapons again Viet tanks, Viet support Hun Sen regime khmer poor until now but Hun Sen families, relative and friends are spending $US 2000 per night club everyday ).

Cambodian people if Hun Sen regime still remain you will never ever get life style as Singapoor, America, Japan at all. You will at the age of 81 years pushing cyclo everyday for the money to buy foods.

KI must do everything to save all cambodian...educate them more please.

Thai also use anti tanks missile guide make from US to wipe out Hun Sen regime Tanks. Hun Sen's tanks cab be see from the satilite very clear because they are made from metal. Anti-tank missile can delivery very accuraccy to destry all Hun Sen tanks by using live GPS guide from satilide.

All cambodian army don't stay in the tanks if you want to survive OK!

Hun Sen can't update military weapons due to Hun Sen's regime so much currupted. They use the nation money for them pockets only.

HUn SEn's regime is the regime that cambodian people must be slave to them, look at Hun Sen families, relative, friends are billionairs, millionairs where do they get the money from? Hun Sen always say in his speech Cambodia just get up from war, just get up from Zero with empty hands and how come they are billionairs, millionairs but innocent cambodian people are so poor.

This war is about to eliminate Hun Sen's regime. American, UN and the world are hate Hun SEn's regime. All cambodian people are also hate Hun Sen's regime.

Fight and trade,trade
and fight! For what?
To keep Khmer people
being silent and
scared of war.
Hun Sen gets reputation on making
war with Thai,the
East side Vietnam
takes advantage advancing border
into Khmer land and
brings more Viet
soldiers hiding in
deep forests as
plantation rubber
workers and sends
more Viet immigrants
to Cambodia.
I went to visit
Cambodia once every
two years.I knew
what is going on
in Cambodia.I visited around the
country;see what I
saw,hear what i heard,but i kept
my mouth shut.
When I came back,
I keep writing the
truth what I was
seeing,hearing and
observing the true
colors of Hun Sen
and Vietnam crooked.
