The two-day Thai-Cambodian Joint Boundary Commission meeting has ended at the Bogor Palace in West Java with nothing resolved.
Thailand and Cambodia entered the talks in Indonesia to try to resolve their border spat.
"This matter [the border dispute] cannot be solved with one meeting," Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa said, according to the Jakarta Post newspaper.
Mr Marty said he would have informal meetings with his Thai and Cambodian counterparts to discuss the problem, which he said was complex.
Meanwhile, the Royal Thai Navy will conduct an annual naval exercise as part of security preparations for any possible maritime disputes with Cambodia, with newly-acquired Gripen jet fighters taking part.
The navy will launch a joint naval exercise with the Royal Thai Air Force in the Gulf of Thailand near Sattahip in Chon Buri on April 21-22.
A military source said the exercise is part of measures to prepare for any maritime territorial conflict with Cambodia.
On April 21, Supreme Commander Songkitti Jaggabatara and navy chief Kamthorn Phumhiran will stay and spend a night on HTMS Chakri Naruebet to watch the naval exercises.
Gripen jet fighters and Saab 340 aircraft will also take part in fleet escort and air interception operations. This will be the first mission of Gripen jet fighters which the air force has bought from Sweden.

Khmer people always obey the law or have always been respected the rule of laws ever since, trying to do the right things and being afraid of the higher-up leaders or what so ever.
Khmer population is not small. It combines with Khmer Krom (Southern Vietnam), Khmer Surin (Northern Thailand) and Khmer Kandal (Cambodia today).
If Khmer people don't care about Buddha or did not show respects, Khmer could be very aggressive like Thai and Vietnam or China, and would have more power and become a very developed nation in the world. The enemies like SIAM (Thailand) and Die Viet (Vietnam) are betrayal and hypocrite races when Khmer people have been so soft and so kind to the neighbors (like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos/Hmong, China, etc) until the neighbors (Thailand and Vietnam) took for grants and stole things and destroyed Khmer people. What on earth the Vietnam and Thailand are doing to Khmer (Cambodia) until today?
It is sad that the Thailand and Vietnam have been using Khmer people as unthinking and forgotten people as their strategies to destroy the real Khmer history to regain their rewritten and false histories. They plan to brainwash their young generations to act very weird and rude until today as you know. Many young people of Thailand and Vietnam have learned their false histories on earth and then their histories will not have the values to learn.
Thailand and Vietnam compare themselves to be like the U.S., British Empire, etc. That is stupid.
Hun Xen has SAM7 shoulder fired anti aircraft rockets from Russia which can be tested against these intruding Swedish fighters. Let us check it out to see how these will work.
KAMPUCHEA KROM AT A GLANCE
Kampuchea Krom is composed of 68,965 square kilometers, 21 provinces and municipalities, two large islands - Koh Tral and Koh Tralach, 171 districts, 1,368 communes, 14,778 villages, more than 13 million Khmers, more than 567 Buddhist pagodas and more than 20,000 Theravada Buddhist monks.
99% of populations are Theravada Buddhists.
The Khmer kings, governments, regimes and citizens have never relinquish (give up) this part of their country to foreigners.
Kampuchea Krom has been under an ongoing colonial control since her division from motherland, Cambodia.
June 4, 1949 is the date that the Khmer Kampuchea Krom citizens grieve. The Khmer Kampuchea Krom people have organized Buddhist Service annually to honor the fallen Khmer Buddhist monks and heroes, who sacrificed their lives for Kampuchea Krom and Theravada Buddhism.
Colonial France divided, ceded and transferred Kampuchea Krom to colonial Vietnam on this date. The freedom of Khmer Kampuchea Krom has been mostly stripped by the Vietnamese ruling regimes and governments since. The French colonial administration committed injustice upon the more than 13 million Khmers of this beautiful fertile land.
Justice remains elusive for Cambodia, Kampuchea Krom and her citizens.
And...The struggle to regain freedom and human rights by the Khmers in Kampuchea Krom continues as long as injustice commits by the ruling Vietnamese regime(s) has not produced a fruitful result.
Koh Tral (Tral Island)
in Vietnamese - Phu Quoc island
circa 1939 Vietnamese encroached and conquered
Koh Tral Island has an area of 567 square kilometers; about 62 kilometers long and between 3 kilometers and 28 kilometers wide. The island physically is located closest to Cambodia's Kep seaside city. Visitors can see Koh Tral Island from the coastline of Kep. It is about a 30-minute motorized boat ride.

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,
The Siem military thugs continue to flex their muscle on Cambodia as if somehow Cambodia is an aggressor! The Siem thugs do whatever they want on their territory but not on Cambodian territory!
Cambodia will not be threaten into submission!
Get back Koh Tral and sea area 10 000km2!
Mr. Sam Rainsy will has ability to get back Koh Tral, Sea area 10 000Km2 and Kumpuchea Krum back to united with Main land Cambodia.
The fucking Cambodia should know by now that Thailand has not the slightest interested in the compromised. By not backing down, they know that they want to make it harder for Cambodia to get any more stolen land back from them. Their stand is not about Prea Vehear, but in the other part of Thailand. Why the fucking Hun Sen is so stupid?
