Suthep: Kasit ‘messenger of peace’ [between Thailand and Cambodia]

3/02/2011
Bangkok Post

Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya will travel to Cambodia today to convey the message that the Thai government does not want war with any country, Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban said on Thursday.

“Mr Kasit’s visit has nothing to do with the two Thais being held in Prey Sar prison on charges of espionage and illegal entry. The Thai government respects the ruling handed down by the Phnom Penh Municipal Court,” Mr Suthep said.

Mr Suthep hoped the conveyed message would help calm the situation along the Thai-Cambodian border.


Asked about the ultimatum by the People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD), that the government must bring back home the jailed coordinator of the Thai Patriots Network Veera Somkwamkid, and his secretary, within three days, the deputy premier said the yellow-shirts should instead join forces with the government to seek the release of the two Thais.

“I have no idea who the yellow-shirts are angry with.

"It is strange that the PAD wants to topple the government just  because of this issue. PAD leaders should instead be discussing ways to help the detained Thais with the government,” he said.

If you don't want war, tell your briton PM not to say the word WAR!! Cambodia has seen/been in war for 3 decades. If you thai dogs want war, we'll accompany you.

Warning!

Abhisit must know that B52 flew from OTAPOA and other military Air Ports from Thai territory to drop thousand tons of BOM in Cambodia in the past. Millions Cambodians were killed. Cambodians have never forgotten the tragedy.

NOW, YOU WANT TO START A NEW WAR AGAIN. GO TO BATTLEFIELD BY YOURSEL, MR ABHISIT. I ASSURE YOU THAT YOU WILL BE KILLED IN THE BATTLEFIELD BY THE BULLETS OF YOUR OUN SOLDIERS WHO WANT THE PEACE ALONG THE BORDER.

Then now you will send your Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya to Phnom Penh to convey that you don't want the war.

You are a true so called PM who installed by a coup group. For sure, you are not a man who represents Thai people

Thai never got an
inch from Khmer yet,
after Pol Pot regime
defeating.Thai never
was under colonial
any country since
1238AD.
Khmer should learn
from Thai,Khmer
enemy.Thai is smart
enough,not to make
war with Khmer.
Khmer should worry
about Vietnam because Vietnam now
is taking more land
by making border markers into Khmer
land half mile.
Go and see by yourself.
In 2030AD,Vietnam
will fully control
over Khmer like Lao.
Keep your eyes on
Vietnam.Do not worry about Thai.
Thai now pays attention to South
and Northeast of
Thai,not to rise up.
