Border conflicts between Cambodia and Thailand (REUTERS/ Sukree Sukplang) |
BANGKOK, April 25
RIA Novosti (Russia)
Thailand and Cambodia are amassing armor and heavy artillery along their common border raising fears that a long-running territorial dispute could escalate into a full-scale war, local media reported on Monday.
A fragile cease-fire between the two Southeast Asian states was broken on Friday when the sides exchanged artillery, rocket and rifle fire. By Monday at least 12 soldiers on both sides were reported to have been killed and dozens more wounded.
"A high concentration of troops and weaponry on the border threatens to turn the conflict into a large-scale war," the Bangkok Post said.
Thai television reported on Monday tanks and armored personnel carriers with troops facing each other on opposite sides of the border in full combat readiness.
Despite UN efforts to find a diplomatic solution for the flare-up, the prospects of a new cease-fire appear to be shaky as the Thai government refuses to accept foreign mediation.
Border conflicts between the two states over the ownership of several 11th century temples that began a century ago resumed in 2010-2011. The two neighbors fought a four-day war near one of the temples in February, and a ceasefire has been in place since March.
The border between Thailand and Cambodia has never been demarcated in detail.

Come and let me fuck you, dark Khmers, don't beg for life, okey?
the only reason Thai wants to fight is not becuase they know how to fight. They fight because they want Khmer cocck. They love cocck long time. After all, their named their city Bangcoc. Come ladyboys, We Khmer have lots of cocck for you to suck on. And don't ask for more because we will give you more until you say no more.
Don't bag us to stop because we will not stop until you bleed through your asssss....ahhhhh. And you will bleed. Welcome to HELL! Make sure you say goodbye to your family. It is a one way ticket.
10:25 pm-- What is Okey?? is it hee.. hee. you crying?
A big mighty Thailand, a leading democratic country of Southeast Asia pick a fight with a small undeveloped country of Cambodia. With its military might, they use whatever weapons they have eventhough it's illegal by International law (poison gas and cluster munitions). As a human being you can't be anymore COWARDICE than this.
Cambodia itself cannot relied on any outside help. The countless rehtoric made by the UN and international communities is after the clashed happen and someone is dead. This happened repeatedly.
In order to have peace and the existence of our race, we must look at a country of Isreal and follow their example. I've urged the Cambodia government to adopt weapons like those of Pakistan, North Korea and China..etc
Full Scale War???
Thats a joke!
The Thai army has 6 CEASAR Howitzer with the OGRE Weapon System!
8 rounds can be shoot per minute from one Weapon system.
Thats 48 shots in only 1 minute!!!
Each shot of the OGRE hast 280 bombs and can penetrate 1 Hectare (10.000sqm)
So 48 Hectare can be destroyed in 1 minute.
I see the Khmers running like rabbits if a full scale war break out.
Thai Fighting Jets can come from the sea crossing Kampong Som and are from there in 5 minutes over Phnom Penh.
They can destroy easily the Airport and shut down everything in Phnom Penh.
There is no defense System against it!
Of course they will make a Deal with the Americans and the Vietnamese Government before they do this.
Easy to destroy Cambodia if they really want it!
All Oil exploration of course go to Vietnam and USA and Thailand.
If I am the US Government I just would sit and wait that this will happen!
It would keep away the Chinese Business. Only for this argument it would be worth it.
So, lets go and eat this Cake!!!
Khmer People can only destroy and cannot build something up.
They will have to pay the Price be sure.
Wait and See!!!!!!
Thai-land is becoming a rogue state.

we all know too well about your ignorant country using guns to take over government as the result you people only speak from violence. your country has no will to resolve the border issue peacefully. your country use cambodia to do your own politics. cambodia has nothing to do with your thai people. your gov't is the one that has a lot of problems at hands and wanted to hold on to power by deception using cambodia as a scapegoat. cambodia's interest is peace not war; we have been through war enough. we know no one will benefit but cambodia will not sit still either when your arrogant gov't ordered soldiers to move in cambodia's territory. we are small country we have no interest to start war with your country. we want a third party as a witness, your country wants the opposite. if your country like to use guns, we will never at peace. cambodia will not be weak forever... and we will not allowed your country to bully us no longer.
Get closer to their fuck'n mobile howitzers and do damage to their personnel and big guns...they are big guns and can do major damages, but they are not immuned from some kinds of tranquilizers...
IF THE FULL SCALE WAR ERUPTS THAI WILL USED F14 TOMCAT F15 EAGLE F-16 FALCON F18 HORNET TO DISTROY HUN SEN'S COMMNAD AND CONTROL CENTER AND HUN SEN'S BUNKER IN TUOL KRASANG AND CONTROL HUN SEN' AIR SPACE IN THE MATTER OF HOURS.
USED A-10 TO DISTROY HUN SEN'S SAM MISSILE SITES, T54-T55, ARMORED VEHICLES AND BM-21 POSITIONS.
USED 105mm, 155mm AND 175mm howitzer to fire and fire will
APACHE M1-A1/M1-A2 M60-A1 TO ADVANCE
AND TO DISTROY HUN SEN' REPUBLICAN GUARDS.
FAST ADVANCE 3 COLUNMS DIVISION FROM THE NORTH; 3 COLUNMS DIVISION FROM THE SEA TO PHNOM PENH AND ALL MILITAY KEY IN THE PROVINCES TO PUSH THAT KHMER-VIETMINH (hun sen)TO VIETNAM BORDER; THEN PUSH THEM TO END AT SOUTH CHINA SEA AND TAKE OVER CAMBODIA AND CHANGE OR INSTALL NEW GOVERNMENT.
we know siem thugs always wanted to steal from cambodia since ancient time. what else is new with evil siem thugs, really!
no wonder khmer people hated and despise them all, really!
I would like to see Cambodia under Vietnam instead of under Thailand.
Vietnam is the khmer parent and brothers and sisters.
Without Vietnam, there is no Khmer.
10:25 PM
I am a dark Khmer and proud of me. Will not ask for any thing from a Thai. But I am now ready to kill bad Thais all over street corner.
Please remember we Khmer are all over the places in Europe, North America, Australia and are waiting for.
evil siem assholes always took advantage of cambodian civil war to steal from us! this time we fight them back and take back everything they stole from cambodia, you know!
I dont see any Khmer or Thais doldier invading! So to satified all you war nuts crazy. let start the war call all the poor KR to start attacking thailand and let them Know Pol Pot is coming and alive
Let the KR takecare of the all tranvesdick out of Bankok!
Both country have useless weapon. so keep fighting. Oh please dont killed the unarm people.
We don't need the Khmer Rouge, we have our own "TRG" the new Khmer Killing Commando.
talk about pol pot, pol pot shouldn't kill khmer, instead, pol pot should've kill siem thugs instead, really! how stupid was pol pot! i think pol pot was really stupid in that sense, you know! of course, pol pot should've killed all siem thugs then, not kill khmer, really! now look what the siem thugs are doing to khmer people and cambodia. i told them!
ladyland have used half of their weapons and they can't even move an inche closer to the temple. and they are still trying hard. if and when they do use all of their weapon they can only reach the temple steps.

Your "TRG" is pieces of shit. All of your little punk ass can't do shit beside get shoot by the Mexican and black people.
down, vietcong boy, down...easy now
Really?
snupid Mike, ok!
If the US had bombed the vietcong back to stoneage during the vietNam war, we would not have the problem we have in Asia today.
Now, the vietcong(Nguey Tan DIng) along with its puppet CPP(HunXin) are the terrorist in SE Asia. Vietcong violated and continue to voilate all of its neighbors severeigny.
Hun Sen sank Cambodia on himself after the coup of 1997. International aid was cut to half, and withdraw the supplying of weapons and other military training.
He is good at killings his own, but when come to Thai and Viets he can only look at their ass holes.
Too bad strong, what can you do now?
How about the Khmer freedom fighters ask for some arms from the Rogue Thai and destroy the CPP in Phnom Penh.
That's is a good idea, while the Khmer military is busy on the border, it's a good time to do something about him.
Let me tell you Thai invader. We Khmer people are poor, and we don't have much to live for so we will scarify our life to protect our country. As to you Thai people is different from us. So ask yourself is it worth it to sacrify your life for your stupid government in Bangkok having champagne and good food, and while you are fighting an unnecessary war.
Go home to your family, enjoy every moment with your family, because life is too short .
By the way, you are not defending your country, you are INVADING my country.
God bless our Khmer soldiers!!
vietcong is the main problem in SE Asia now.
4:11 AM
The Khmer people are poor because your leader is stealing everything from them. If the Khmer people want to be rich again they have no choice but to change the regime.
According to the UN, Cambodia and Thailand have not signed the Convention on Cluster Munitions which prohibits the use of cluster bombs.
Thailand and Cambodia are not among the 43 countries that have ratified the Convention on Cluster Munitions, which has taken effect since August 1, 2010, and bans the stockpiling, use and transfers of existing cluster bombs and provides for the clearing up of unexploded munitions.
So,Thai and khmer can be used anything including Atomic Bombs to win the war.
Bye Bye Hun Sen, your home will be in Hanoi from now on. Prepare to leave as the might Thai about to teach a lesson.
ThaiLand is doing the right things.
As long as Cambodia has VIOLATED the 23 October 1991 peace Agreement
Thailand has the rights to do so...
If Vietnam can do Thailand and Laos can do too.
There is nothing wrong with that, due to PARIS PEACE AGREEMENT.
I say Thailand's doing the great job!
Invade as much as Thai can do....
If Viet can do same as Thai and Laos, doing their part.
Thank You Thai...

GO AHEAD, CHAN ACHA, full fighting (war)u showed off too much.. don't be coward,,,, u talked too much
5:17 AM
You idiot assumed too much, when it pleases your ass, it's a viet, when it's doesn't please your ass it's thai, stupid mentality.
Maybe the ASEAN ,(Vietnam,Thailand,CPP... etc) want Khmer people to be on the verge of extinction.
I don't understand the way this Thai soldier is standing. Something is wrong and fungy!
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,
To 12:13 AM you wrote:
"evil siems assholes always took advantage of cambodia and picked a fight with cambodia! i think cambodia ought to nuke bangcock to teach siem thugs a lesson not to bully cambodia ever again, really!"
-------------------
“i think Cambodia ought to nuke bangcock.”
Nuke them with what? really! really! really!
Since when does Cambodia have WMD?
Before posting think about what you write.
Don’t write nonsense and stupid thing.
Vietnam take over 30 000km2 of Cambodia by using Hun Sen to sign the illigal treaties so the khmer king is very angry about this issues so Khmer King ask Thai king to do his favor by using Thai Royal Amry to remove Hun Sen.
Let's see who will win at the end!
Hun Sen VS Thai King Amry + Khmer king and his people = No more Youn slave regime and 30 000km2 return back from viet
Yuon the one provoke this game of wars Khmer and Siames. Don't be stupid Khmer who will gain all this profite after we fighting and who'll be suffers and dying it all Khmer people alots of our ancetors are live around our border.
I agree with 6:47 AM.
The person, who wrote it, probably doesn’t understand the word “nuke”.
To nuke is to bomb with the atomic bombs which Cambodia and Thailand don’t have. Their use has been banned since their last drops on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
I'm tired of this one-sided news about thailand.
Anything going on with vietnam, people get arrested, locked up, or killed, or forced exiled.
This is the CPP, HANOI propaganda!
And Kol Tral is bigger than Singapore and our Cambodian government didn't say nothing to protect this island!!!!
កុំឃើញសង្រ្គាម សប្យាយដូចមើល វ៉ៃបុក ពេក
THAI IS JEALOUS OF VIETNAM!
WHY?
VIETNAM TOOK KOH TRAL,THOUSAND MILES SEA
WATER,LAND ALONG VIETNAM KHMER BORDER,AND
TOOK CONTROL WHOLE CAMBODIA.
THAI WANTS TO GET BACK BATTAMBANG,SIEM
REAP,AND HALF PURSAT.
IF CAMBODIA SERVES TWO MASTERS,HE'II HAVE PEACE.
IF HUN SEN IS OUT OF POWER,NO ANY KHMER
LEADERS DEPEND ON THAI,BUT NOT ON YUON.
"IF HUN SEN IS OUT OF POWER,NO ANY KHMER
LEADERS DEPEND ON THAI,BUT NOT ON YUON."
What the hell are you trying to say?
Whoever wrote this is correct...
"UN has already spent too much money on Cambodia. But Hun Sen and CPP have made Cambodia’s neighbors, Thai and Viet, looking down on Khmer. UN helped Cambodia to help itself, but Hun Sen and CPP screw it all up beyond repair."
HUn Sen regime is nearly over by Thai Royal Army!
F16 will bomb Hun Sen base for sure.
Long live the king!
Cambodia is junk, Thai will take back their land which is the border at Svay Duon Keo post marker is still there according to Thai's history.
I'd rather be Thai instead of Vietnamese.
B-52 of US army killed al least 500000 ( haft millions khmer life )innocent Cambodian people at that time.
Ask your parents if you don't believe about B-52 bomb Cambodia at that time.
One B-52 airplane can carry 32 000kgs of bomb, drop more than 15 000 tons of conventional bombs on Cambodia from 1965–73.
ASK your parents for more detail about B-52
9:21 7 9:54 AM
if you want dream come true come to frontline man. We khmer will guide to get the real dream. your F-16 is not god, so will be blewn out anyway.Your dam Thai royal army only work good for your dam Junk country not Cambodia. Your leass than 800 years history what the hell you are talking about with Khmer.
Thailand should use Cluster Munitions to pray on Hun Sen' Thugs!
