A Cambodian and the U.S. maritime exercise will be held in Cambodia from Feb. 27 to March 2 to exchange experience between the two countries' military forces in peacekeeping, said Chhum Socheat, spokesman for Cambodian Ministry of Defense, on Wednesday.
The drill will be conducted at three locations; one is at the naval base in Preah Sihanouk province, another at the tank commanding headquarters in Kampong Speu and the other at Pich Nil military base, he told reporters.
"It is to exchange experiences between the U.S. forces and our Cambodian forces, especially the process of peacekeeping,"he said, adding "some 500 Cambodian military forces and U.S. naval forces will be joined the drill."
It will be focusing on how to rescue victims of wars, how doctors help the injured and how to truck emergency food, and so on, he said, adding that he does not know the number of marines will be used in the drill.

www.Groupon.com/BostonBoundary conflicts are not abnormal in this region, but each country employs different methods of resolving them. For instance, the Malaysia-Indonesia conflict over Sipadan and Ligitan islands, as well as the Singapore-Malaysia discord over the Batu Puteh island were taken to the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which issued verdicts on the cases in 2002 and 2008 respectively.
In comparison, Thailand and Cambodia have been at loggerheads over the Preah Vihear Temple since last century, and even though the case was taken to the ICJ, Thailand has been resisting the verdict since 1962.
Violence has erupted from time to time, with the latest skirmish from February 4 to 7 claiming at least 10 lives, including three civilians on both sides.
Cambodia, referring to the 1962 ICJ ruling that "the temple is situated in the territory under the sovereignty of Cambodia", handed the case over to United Nations Security Council claiming that Thailand was invading its territory. Phnom Penh obviously hopes to have the UN enforce the ICJ ruling and keep Thai soldiers away from the areas surrounding the Hindu temple.
Thailand, on the other hand, has been arguing that the ICJ ruling only gave Cambodia the sandstone temple, not the surrounding areas.
However, common sense says that a temple cannot stand on Cambodian territory unless its surrounding land is also Cambodian.
Yet Bangkok has been maintaining its argument for nearly half a century now and wants to exercise its power and get Phnom Penh to accept it.
Unfortunately, Cambodia is not the same old Cambodia it was in the last century. The current set of leaders know how to seek international help and achieve their goals. They have managed to steer the country through turbulence to the Paris Accord and a UN-sponsored election and end up becoming a true member of the Asean - a grouping comprising former enemies. Nobody should underestimate these leaders.
Furthermore, the current conflict between Thailand and Cambodia is taking place at a time when Asean needs to exercise its charter to prove it is a legal organisation with the capacity of handling all sorts of problems, be they external or internal. The charter enhances the role of its chairman and secretary-general.
Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa, in his role as chairman, and Asean Secretary-General Surin Pitsuwan are smart enough to know that this is a great opportunity for the grouping to show its capability in ending this conflict.
Natalegawa began his shuttle diplomacy as gunfire was being heard near Preah Vihear, while Surin worked hard behind the scenes to get things done. The latest resolution of sending Indonesian observers to the conflict area is a solid outcome.
Cambodia's strategy of taking the issue to the international arena via meetings in Jakarta and New York has clearly worked. Though it has not achieved its ultimate goal, at least it doesn't have to deal with Thailand on its own.
On the other hand, Thailand's traditional demand for a bilateral settlement came to a stop when it agreed to sit in the New York and Jakarta talks. It's very rare for Thailand to allow "outsiders" to monitor its border affairs, even more abnormal for it to get into "proper engagement" with the Asean chair Indonesia.
Obviously, Thailand's diplomatic landscape will never be the same
prove it to the world, siem! we heard that too many times already and goes in circle. enough of your dirty sweet, evil talk secret with us, ok! bye bye!
Obviously, the supper powers realize the irresposiblities of the Thai leaders. So the US steps in and assist Cambodia. Cambodian leaders are doing very well internationally professionally. And Cambodia will be the main player in the region.
Welcome USA!
God bless the USA and Cambodia
Drill baby drill.
US will supply several 1941 WWII decommission warships to Khmer Navy in Feb 2013. Better than nothing...

2:53AM where did you get this info. Please show link or prove it. No offense, people make all kinds of claims with no substantial evidence to prove it.
Thanks but no thanks Uncle Sam. You caused enough suffering to Cambodian people during your cold war against Soviet. Please don't use Cambodia as your battlefiled to fight China, just let us leave in peace.
Look at history since a long time USA played wrong policies on Khmer as well as Khmer leader turn to communist pole. USA did not prepare well a policy to support khmer in during war. Now USA is truning towar KHmer. it seems to be overtime because USA is using a strict policy to khmer. why USA dont like Sihanouk and support LOn Nol. USA hs to know Lon Nol is a person who is not popular in Khmer during that time so USA failed to attract as allies and Communist got sihanouk as partner to overthrow Lon Nol led khmer rouge control country poor khmer people killed. In turn, if USA took sihanouk and concession to him USA has khmer as ally and more powerful than with ally dog Thai and USA may be won in Vietnam because khmer support. WE think that khmer has not morder weapon but khmer strong battle in the ground so far more than dog Thai. Clash recently for 4 days Dog thai do nothing on khmer soldier in turn khmer smash all soldier because dog Thai lost so dog Thai hungry very much to use cluster and chemistry weapon because it only just clash. Thus Dog thai nis incapacity it cannot compare with us. Now USA wand khmer soldiers to support its in world issue because khmer sends peacekeeping force to build and restore some countries which destroyed in the war as well as USA hope that khmer soldier can join arm force with US one day. Thus, recently Before khmer conflict with dog thai USA want khmer change a national defense policy. We dont know this clash backed by USA to threat khmer or sth. USA has opened clearly eyes on khmer benefits can help USA in the world more than dog Thai.
KHmerization hates people who talk about Kos Trol, sea and lands about 10 000km2 to Vietnam. Khmerization try to silence Ms. Rattana Keo about Kos TRol, sea and land 10 000km2. Khmerization tries to play blame game to Ms. Rattana Keo. Khmerization is killing every Cambodian who talks about Kos Trol. Ms. Rattana Keo keeps talking about Kos Trol, sea and lands over 10 000km2 to Vietnam because No Khmer men dare to speak out about this out loud. They are get into politic and news to serve their own interest in money in every generation of Khmer. Khmerization tries to silence one defend less woman that remind Khmers about Kos Trol, sea and lands over 10 000km2 have been lost to Vietnam injustice to all Cambodian people. Shame on khmerization News! Khmerization only serves their interest in political gain.
All real patriot Khmers die for nothing to serve the optician in every generation. Politian get rich and Khmer people keep suffer every day.
All Cambodian readers beware, I used to be a very big fan that inspired by KI and Khmerization but today I can see their real face and political gain purpose. Beware all Cambodian people! Politian gets rich but Khmer people like you and me are getting suffered every day.
Please don't take a note about the person, who oft talking of the "Kos Tral" story. It is a naive idea, because she or he mights not know well the Cambodian history, or has the personal problems with Hun Sen's family.
