Abhisit says fighting must stop before talks
28/04/2011
Bangkok Post Reporters and AGENCIES
Cambodian media report eight soldiers killed. They include a colonel, a major, two captains and two sub-lieutenants, Thai intelligence said.
Cambodia must stop firing before negotiations can be held to solve the border dispute, says Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva.
A war of words between the two country's leaders broke out yesterday, dimming hopes for ceasefire talks.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen accused the Abhisit government of being war-happy, in a manner he had not seen under previous Thai governments.
''Cambodia is appealing for a ceasefire,'' Mr Hun Sen said in a speech in the capital Phnom Penh, adding that he was ready to hold talks with his Thai counterpart.
He said in his first remarks since border fighting began last Friday that he welcomed talks with Mr Abhisit at a meeting planned for Indonesia early next month.
But Mr Abhisit struck back in his response. ''Cambodia said it was ready to talk, so why don't they stop shelling,'' he said.
Each side accuses the other of firing first. Shelling continued for a sixth day yesterday. Cambodia opened fire into Surin for 15 minutes late last night, but Thai troops did not return fire. There was no immediate report of casualties.
Mr Abhisit said Thailand was doing its best to resolve the situation but it could not end the dispute without Cambodia's cooperation.
Mr Abhisit said the easiest way to enter negotiations was for Cambodia to hold fire, noting that a framework for talks was already in place.
Mr Abhisit yesterday travelled by an army plane to Surin province to visit soldiers injured in the fighting at the provincial hospital, and to meet displaced civilians at an evacuation centre.
Defence Minister Gen Prawit Wongsuwon plans to meet his Cambodian counterpart Tea Banh after returning on Saturday from a visit to China, on condition that the border skirmishes have ceased, said Gen Noppadon Inthapanya, Gen Prawit's secretary.
He said Gen Prawit was not scheduled to meet Gen Tea Banh yesterday because he was supposed to leave for China and had no plan to postpone it.
Earlier, army spokesman Col Sansern Kaewkamnerd said Gen Prawit refused to talk to his counterpart in Phnom Penh as suggested by Cambodia because he was frustrated about Cambodian media reports which said Thailand had accepted defeat.
Gen Noppadon said Gen Prawit's plan to talk to Cambodia did not suggest a defeat. Gen Prawit still wanted to resolve the dispute at the bilateral level.
Gen Prawit declined to discuss the conflict, saying he would rather wait until he is back from China.
Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya will meet Indonesia Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa today during an Asean culture meeting in Jakarta.
They are likely to discuss the dispute issue as Indonesia is Asean chairman.
Meanwhile, field reports yesterday said one villager was killed and two others wounded in a cross-border clash in Surin's Phanom Dong Rak and Kap Choeng districts on Tuesday night.
The casualties were allegedly inflicted by Cambodian gunfire during the clash which started in the afternoon and continued until about 10.30pm.
The Public Health Ministry said the fighting had so far resulted in 94 Thais being wounded and six killed - five Thai soldiers and one civilian.
The ministry said the border violence has forced nine state hospitals in Buri Ram and Surin to suspend all but emergency services.
Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Department director-general Wibul Sanguanpong said 142 villages in Phanom Dong Rak, Kap Choeng and Prasart districts of Surin have been declared emergency disaster zones caused by outside forces. Altogether, 29,677 people living along the Thai side of the border with Cambodia have been relocated to 22 evacuation centres in four districts of Surin, Mr Wibul said.
Cambodian media report eight soldiers killed. They include a colonel, a major, two captains and two sub-lieutenants, Thai intelligence said.
Army chief Gen Prayuth Chan-ocha has ordered the army to set up a front operation centre along the border in either Surin or Si Sa Ket provinces, a military source said.
The front operation centre will act as a coordinating centre between the army and soldiers in the border area.
Meanwhile, Privy Council president Gen Prem Tinsulanonda yesterday urged Thais to give moral support to troops at the border. Asked if the miliary has done its best to solve border conflicts, Gen Prem said the military always does it best. ''I pray for them every day. Thai soldiers are strong and we should give them support,'' he said.

This is thailand side, not khmer.
hun sen is a coward son of a bitch leader.
Dear Khmer Surin, Si Sa Ket and others,
We are khmer Empire. About 600 years, Siem was a small group. Up today Siem has taken huge land from us.
Thai has armed Khmer Surin soldiers and officers to fight against Khmer soldiers across the border.
Let me ask you questions.
1) What is your benefit to be Thai soldiers to kill our brothers in Cambodia ?
2) Why do you allow Thai using all of you to kill our own Khmer people in Cambodia ?
Please wake up. What ever you are doing, Thai army is going to be defeated. It is self-destruction Thai policy. Thai politic is going to the end of Kingdoom of Thailad.
3) This is the last king of Thailand. Trust me. You know it. But you dare not to say publicly.
4) Abhisit and Thai army will be defeated.
5) Politically, Kingdoom of Cambodia is the winner with the majority of the interntional support.
6) Throw your guns and uniform in the trash barrel, then go back to your home. Do not let the Thai army and Abhisit manipulate all of you. You have Khmer blood. Be real Khmer Angkor !

Hun SEn murdered thousands cambodian people k5, 1997 coup...shooted in the head one by one with no regret but Hun Sen is very coward to Viet and Thai.
Thai PM, it is time that you shoot PM Hun Sen families in the head as they did to cambodian people.
Thai f16 and f18 must bomb Hun Sen base not the border. From thai air base to Hun Sen base only take 20 minutes of flight.
Thai PM must use F16 to bomb Hun Sen.
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,
No need a biliteral talk because simply it will never work. For more than three years these issues have not been solved. Preah vichear has been listed by the unesco as a khmer world heritage. So, it is up to khmer to do whatever we like to the temple and its surrounding area of 4.6km. This is not to count on the land we already lost to the Thai for centuries ago. If you look at other temples in Thailand, they were originally belonged to khmer because they looked as a duplication of the ankhor or other temples in the khmer land. So, Thai people should appreciate and respect us by leaving us alone for once. The Viets have helped us in many ways but never did the Thai. From 1979, Viets not only gave us rice to eat but also saved the whole nation. Unlike Thai, they helped to killed us by dumping us into the mine-field from 1979-1983. Most khmer overseas had to face with alot of crisis before arriving into the first world.
So, we have to continue to work with the Viets and help each other out in term of protecting both of our nations. So, far half of khmer nations are khmer-viets and there is nothing you can do about it. As a matter of fact both of our nations become much better and stronger than ever. The only thing we need to do is to continue to promote unity and love for each other. Wisdom
don't waste the breath with ahbullshit. ahbullshit belongs in jail, really!
PM Ahbullshit is waiting for an opportunity to kill Hun Sen and his families, relatives and frinds of Hun Sen before he goes to Thai Jail.
Thail PM want to liberate Khmer King from Vietnam slave Hun Sen regime.
Thai army will shoot Hun Sen, families, relatives and friends in the head like Hun Sen regime shoot khmer people in the head in 1997 coup, K5 and so on...
