Thai Border Villagers Returning Home

SI SA KET, Thailand, Feb 12 (Bernama) -- Local villagers in Kantharalak District of Thailand's northeastern Si Sa Ket Province have continued returning home gradually, from temporary shelters provided by provincial authorities, as the situation along the Thai-Cambodian border near the province has remained calm over the past couple of days--in the wake of a spate of clashes, from February 4-6, between Thai and Cambodian soldiers.

The returning Thai villagers have been safeguarded by soldiers from Thailand's 2nd Army Area Command; while bomb disposal experts have continued surveying border areas on the Thai side to ensure that there are no hidden explosive devices for the sake of public safety, Thai News Agency (TNA) reported.

Meanwhile, Thai Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban denied alleged reports that Thailand had flown some F-16 jet fighters over Ban Pum Srol area along the border in the Thai side to threaten Cambodia, insisting that Thailand does not need a show of force.

Suthep, who oversees national security, said that the Royal Thai Air Force has normally flown its F-16 jet fighters as part of its regular training.

Khmers/Thai in Si Sa Ket, Surin, Buriram, Ubon, ayuthia,.... ,

WE are Khmers. We are the owner of the Provinces. We had born here. We stay her from generation to generation. We speak Khmer. We have same culture and same blood as Khmers around the world and Khmers in Srok Khmer. Our leader built Ankor Wat, Preah Vihea and may more temples Siem are not the owner of our land and our culture.

Siem is thief We must protect our right and land and culture and language.

Tell Thai soldiers to return to their camp. Let us live in peace.

Yellow Shirt and Abhisit group are the trouble maker and the warmonger and the traitor of Thai people.

Abhisit was installed as a puppet. He is a Hilter of Asia. He will be killed by his own people.

Abhisit was installed by his friend, PAD. Now he is bitten by his own friend, PAD.

He is bitten by RED, too.

Good for Abhisit !

Lord Buddha blesses you the way you treat your poor people.
