Cambodia's request to the International Court of Justice for legal clarification to settle the border dispute around the Preah Vihear temple is not unexpected, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva says.
Mr Abhisit added yesterday that he had prepared for Cambodia's petition to the ICJ and the government is ready to present its defence if necessary.
A legal consultant has been hired to prepare its points in terms of legal aspects and facts.
Cambodia has asked the ICJ to interpret the court's 1962 ruling, which awarded the ancient Hindu temple ruins to Cambodia
A statement issued by Cambodia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation yesterday said Phnom Penh felt it was necessary to have the interpretation "in order to peacefully and definitely settle the boundary problem between the two countries".
Mr Abhisit did not comment on some critics' remarks that Cambodia had picked a fight with Thailand as part of an orchestrated plan to find grounds for lodging the ICJ request.
Mr Abhisit said efforts to end the clashes would continue. However, Thailand would retaliate if Cambodia opened fire first.
Information Department director-general Thani Thongpakdi yesterday criticised Cambodia for overlooking Asean by filing its petition with the ICJ.
Mr Thani said Cambodia had no intention to solve the problem bilaterally and overlooked Asean, which had offered help to solve the conflict.
Mr Thani said earlier Cambodia had informed Thailand it would bring the conflict to the ICJ if Joint Boundary Commission talks came to a halt.
The ICJ may consider in three weeks whether it will accept Cambodia's petition, Mr Thani said. If it accepts, it will take up to two years before it reaches a ruling.

Khmer Preah Vihear Temple was built long before the Siem/Tai tribes migrated from Southern China...
These Siem are so arrogant...they need to be repatriated back to Yunnan, China!!!
Suvannaphoumi will always be Khmer land...
The Siem thuggish leaders want to argue against Cambodian leaders base on their unilateral map and their fake history! The real Siem map and the real Siem history is in Nanchoa!
Abhisit is ready for ICJ petition, he should first attack the ICJ by the F-16 of his Thai Army to destroy all documents of the Preah Vihear Decision from 1962.
On behalf a Cambodian citizen who love justice and peace, thank to France for a great willing to provide a proof map and be a witness for interpreting the verdict of the ICJ in 1962. France was signed on the map printed in 1904 and 1907.
Japan would be also a good witness for this too. One of the judge panel on the verdict was a Japanese, immensely thanks to Japanese government for this and hope for continuing support this matter. Thanks also to other countries in the world that love justice and support to Cambodia for this petition. Especially UNESCO and all the committee members for deciding to inscribe Preah Vihear temple as an outstanding value for the humanity and a world heritage.
Var Kim Hong does recognize that Cambodia, if compared to the colonial Service Geographique de l’Indochine scale map 1/100,000 and the 1985 delimitation treaty, will loses 9,000 hectares; and compared to U.S Army Mapping Service scale map 1/50,000 with the 1985 Treaty, would lose about 7,900 hectares to Vietnam. This statement was confirmed by Var Kim Hong to Mr. Touch Bora Esq through a telephone conversation on 30 August 2002 at 4:30 p.m. (Sydney time), which Mr. Touch Bora Esq wrote in his letter dated on 9 September 2002 sent to Sam Dach Ta Noroudom Sihanouk concerning over border affairs.
In fact, the loss is absolutely more than the 1000 square kilometers stated by MP Sam Rainsy in his statement, if we add the size of the historical water of 30000 square kilometers awarded to Vietnam under the 1982 Agreement which has been into affect and now already become under the full control of Vietnam. And this would not be the last if the equidistance principle be used to delimit the maritime boundary, Cambodia will lose an additional area of sea and seabed measuring at least 860 square nautical miles from the Brevie Line to the north, analyzed by Mr. Touch Bora Esq or another 10000 square kilometers confirmed by Mr. Sean Pengse, the President of the Cambodian Border Committee Worldwide, which exclusively include another Koh Poula Wai to Vietnam added to the previous lost islands- Koh Tral (Dao Phu Quoc) and Koh Poulo Panjang (Dao Thu Chu).
This is why sVar Kim Hong said in front of Students´s Movement for Democracy (SMD), and Sam Dach Ta Norodom Sihanouk on 22 Janaury 2000 during our audience with him concerning the border resolution with Vietnam that; “If we want peace, we must sacrifice our flesh to the tiger.” The truth is discovered now that, “Sacrifice the flesh to tiger actually means cutting our land to the Viet.” This word was clearly spoken out from his mouth and there were Sam Dach Ta as witness and 31 members.
We must condemn this Var Kim Hong for his role in helping the traitorous regime of Hun Sen.
Smart Khmer Girl Ms. Rattana Keo,
Koh Tral Island must not be forgotten
By Ms. Rattana Keo
Why do Koh Tral Island, known in Vietnam as Phu Quoc, a sea and land area covering proximately over 10,000 km2 [Note: the actual land size of Koh Tral itself is 574 square kilometres (222 sq miles)] have been lost to Vietnam by whose treaty? Why don’t Cambodia government be transparent and explain to Cambodia army at front line and the whole nation about this? Why don't they include this into education system? Why?
Cambodian armies are fighting at front line for 4.6 km2 on the Thai border and what's about over 10,000km2 of Cambodia to Vietnam. Nobody dare to talk about it! Why? Cambodian armies you are decide the fate of your nation, Cambodian army as well as Cambodian people must rethink about this again and again. Is it fair?
Koh Tral Island, the sea and land area of over 10,000 square kilometres have been lost to Vietnam by the 1979 to 1985 treaties. The 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 protecting a very small group that own big lands, big properties or only protecting a small group but disguising as protecting the Khmer nation?
The Cambodian army at front lines suffer under rain, wind, bullets, bombs, lack of foods, lack of nutrition and their families have no health care assistance, no securities after they died but a very small group eat well, sleep well, sleep in first class hotel with air conditioning system with message from young girls, have first class medical care from oversea medical treatments, they are billionaires, millionaires who sell out the country to be rich and make the Cambodian people suffer everyday.
Who signed the treaty 1979-1985 that resulted in the loss over 10,000 km2 of Cambodia??? Why they are not being transparent and brave enough to inform all Cambodians and Cambodian army at front line about these issues? Why don't they include Koh Tral (Koh Tral size is bigger than the whole Phom Phen and bigger than Singapore [Note: Singapore's present land size is 704 km2 (271.8 sq mi)]) with heap of great natural resources, in the Cambodian education system?
Look at Hun Sen's families, relatives and friends- they are billionaires, millionaires. Where did they get the money from when we all just got out of war with empty hands [in 1979]? Hun Sen always say in his speeches that Cambodia had just risen up from the ashes of war, just got up from Year Zero with empty hands and how come they are billionaires, millionaires but 90% of innocent Cambodian people are so poor and struggling with their livelihood every day?
Smart Khmer girl Ms. Rattana Keo,
From my understand, the the idea of attacking our country Cambodia was directed from Mr. Abhisit.
Mr. Abhisit manipulated the Thai people (from Laos, Khmer and Khmer Mon descents), that we Khmer live in Cambodia are not Khmer.
This people are going too far by calling all us Khmer in Cambodia as Youn or as Youn Puppet.
Thai may lie the other parts world, but Thai will not able to manipulate us Khmer, because we are proud of us.
2:33 PM
You mean proud to be Nambodia!

12:27 PM,
Communist Vietnam and Hanoi should be bombed with Nuclear Atomic bombs to destroy all all the evil bastards and bitches on the planet. Then let China take Die Viet back, let Champa take Central Vietnam back and Southern Vietnam should be returned to Khmer or Cambodia back.
Yuon or Vietnamese people and their leaders did not stop their hypocrite behaviors, but still cause more trouble to the world.
Vietnam is a very evil country with their evil people. China, please destroy all Yuon or Vietnamese for Khmer people, please and give them the big lesson to learn. Thanks!
How about that, Yuon bitch?
