Presiding over the Royal Thai Navy’s annual training exercises in Sattahip, Thailand’s top military commander ruled out negotiations with Cambodia until that country’s forces cease hostilities in the latest rounds of deadly border clashes.
Supreme Commander Gen. Songkitti Jaggabatara said during an April 22 speech at Sattahip Naval Base that Thai forces were “resolute” in protecting the country’s sovereignty and will not hesitate to attack Cambodia forces if necessary. “Negotiations are not in the plans if our enemies choose to disrupt peace in our country,” he said.
Navy forces fire an Exocet missile from the HTMS Ratcharit, a fast-attack boat, during regularly scheduled military exercises in the Gulf of Thailand near Sattahip. Whilst watching the exercises, Supreme Commander Gen. Songkitti Jaggabatara said that Thai forces were “resolute” in protecting the country’s sovereignty.
Ten people were killed in the first three days of heavy artillery exchanges near Ta Kwai temple in Surin. Thailand accuses Cambodia of trying to seize both Ta Kwai and nearby Ta Muen temple in a move similar to its occupation of the disputed Preah Vilhear temple about 160 km from the latest fighting.
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has urged both sides to agree to an immediate cease fire, but Thai leaders say their Khmer counterparts are trying to escalate the situation in order to force international involvement in border disputes Thailand wants solved bilaterally. Hoping to provoke international outrage, Cambodians have claimed Thais are using air strikes and chemical weapons on their military, which is about 25 times smaller than Thailand’s. Thai leaders denied both.

In Sattahip, Songkitti said 15,000 villagers have been evacuated from the battle zone. He said he hoped hostilities would cease soon, but also has been asked to approve the dispatch of five more battalions to the area to protect the two temples.
At his Sattahip war games appearance, the supreme commander certainly did his best to show of the might of Thai forces.

From a perch on the helicopter deck of the HTMS Chakri Naruebet, Songkitti watched as Navy forces fired an Exocet missile from the HTMS Ratcharit, a fast-attack boat. Other exercises included anti-aircraft firing, artillery practice with live rounds and joint sorties by Royal Thai Navy and Air Force F-16s.
Navy commander Adm. Kamthon Pumhiran said the war games were a previously scheduled, annual exercise put on to better integrate the operations of various naval units.

If Thai has money for war game, good for them. The more you act this way, the more you losses your export to Cambodia. Soon there will be more money left for war game.
Dude! That is a second hand boat bought, not made in Thailand. Thai has no sustainable economic/ or industry producing anything that Khmer has to be afraid of. Just sad to see both Khmer and Thai people suffer due to these idiots leaders. Thai should rise up and remove these military general, and better yet, move away from Kingship and become repulican. In this day and age, no one should be King or queen. We all are human and should respect such.
Most khmer in srok khmer and khmer oversea are accepting or intergrating themselves into yuon or yuon into khmer society in order to join common INDOCHINA FEDERATION of HO CHI MINH.
By 2015 yuon will be gradually completed their first plan to melt down khmer into yuon or yuon into khmer society.
By 2030 youn accomplished their final goal, khmer country become yuon country and the world accepted as is... or coup d'etat to take over Hun Sen party (CPP) and kill all internal network who worked for or as viet secret agents.

There's a dark cloud approaching Thailand. It is call ELECTION. Some groups in Thailand are terrified of this approaching storm.
The PADs, and monarchy/military are terrified of Thaksin's return, thus the deadly shoot-out with Cambodia to turn attention away from domestic mess.
This is a classic Thais military tactic in an attempt to unite a divided society. The PADs even now want the election put off for another four years.
Have you noticed Thai officials struggled to speak with one voice in dealing with this conflict??
Abhisit and Kasit say one thing, and the cavalier Prayuth override them both. There is no leadership inside Thailand despite all outward appearance.
Of course we all know poor Cambodia is being used to resolve Thailand's political madness. Also, the casualty of this conflict are the ethnic Khmer in Surin, Sisaket, and Buriram.
Abhisit's government, but more so the Thai military and monarchy are getting very desperate to find a legitimate way to cancel Election

HI, Read this:
Natalegawa also said Thailand welcomes the deployment of an Indonesian observer team to the disputed area.
This idea was first agreed upon in an emergency meeting of ASEAN's Foreign Ministers in February, also in Jakarta. The observers have not been deployed, after Thailand later stated their presence was not needed.
"I just want to reassure that Thailand will work very earnestly and in a very serious manner with Indonesia in the role of Indonesia as a great facilitator," the Thai foreign minister said.
