PHNOM PENH - Fresh fighting between Thai and Cambodian troops on Saturday killed at last one Thai soldier, raising the number of dead on both sides to eight in two days in the worst bloodshed since the United Nations called for a ceasefire in February.
Thousands of villagers have been evacuated from the thick, disputed jungle border area around the Ta Moan and Ta Krabey temples, about 150 km (93 miles) west of the 900-year-old Preah Vihear temple, which saw a deadly four-day standoff in February.
Thai army Lieutenant General Thawatchai Samutsakorn said one Thai soldier had been killed. At least 13 soldiers were wounded, according to the local Phnom Dongrak hospital. That followed the deaths of four Thai and three Cambodian soldiers on Friday.

These clashes will not find any solution for any dispute so they have to sit and talk with each other then they can find a good and peaceful solution for this situation.
Again, I urge the khmer gov't to increase in migrating more Viets for at least another 2 millions and place them around preah vihear area along the 4.6km ASAP. Because the Thai people are taking advantage of us and our down fall. We have to find way to protect our nation and our country and to do that we all must be united and work together as a team. Remember this, the Viet have helped us in many ways but never did the Thai. In 1979-1980 they helped to killed our people by dumping us in the mine-field. Many of us were killed by them. less we forget!!!. So, it is better for Viets than for the Thai. In 1979 the viets not only gave us rice to eat but also saved the whole nation. Please don't let anyone put both Viet and khmer down. We all must work together as a team and promote peace and harmony. Note do not listen to the Thai no more enough is enough!!!For Thai, you are not only attacking khmer but also Viets, I promise you this, you will pay for it, it is called 'Karma" . Aust
