Thailand will protest Cambodia for starting the fresh round of clash in the Thai-Cambodia disputed border area on Friday.

Thani Thongpakdi, director-general of Thai Foriegn Ministry's Information Department, said that the ministry is now in the process of gathering information about the new round of clash along with the Thai Army.

The ministry will later submit a complaint to Phnom Penh via Cambodian Embassy to Thailand, he said.

The official also said that Thai Foriegn Minister Kasit Piromya has already talked with the Chair of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) this morning to inform him about the fact of the clash.


Thani added that the ASEAN acknowledged the clash and wanted to see the dispute being solved as soon as possible.

Earlier, Deputy Chief of Staff Region 2 Col. Prawit Hukaew said three Thai soldiers were killed in the latest clash and at least a house of Thai resident was damaged by the shelling.

Thai media reported that at least 13 thai military rangers were injured, seven of them seriously wounded.

The clash erupted at around 6 a.m. Friday local time in undemarcated border area near Pa Nom Dong Rak district of Thailand 's Surin province, followed by shelling across the border. Some artillery shells fell in Thai soil.

Col. Sansern Kaewkamnerd, Thai Army spokesman, said the clash ended at about 8 a.m. local time after high-ranking officers of Thai Army contacted Cambodia Army officers.

Sansern insisted that Cambodia started firing at Thai military after Thai military warned them not to enter the undemarcated area.

Both countries blamed each other for pulling the trigger first.

According to the Foreign Ministry, Thai and Cambodian armies have agreed to stay 100 meters away from the border line.

Thoudsands of Thai vilagers have evacuated to refugee camps set up by the government.

The last border clashes between the two countries took place from February 4 to 7 killing ten soldiers on both sides.

I feel Thai government behavior is like a spoiling small kid.
You are the one, who first attack Cambodia. Now you manipulate the information and call the world, that a small country like Cambodia invaded your country.

khmer gov't needs to migrate more viets and place them around Preah Vichear areas along the 4.6 km, I guarentee in no time the Thai can no longer fight with the khmer. First, khmer gov't needs employ all trade from all over the world to put new infrastures such as housing schools, markets and so on around Preah vichear and then along with 2 millions viets. There you go. Now, the question is; who will fight with whom? who dear? try it and then wait and see? Aust

If Thailand will stage a protest in her country and submit a letter to ASEAN, this is obviously told me that the Thai army has lost another round of skirmish at Ta Krabey and Ta Mouen Thom. Since the Thai gov't is reluctant to resolve the frontier issue with the UNSC and ASEAN, why did this MOTHER-FUCKER Thailand care about a notification to the world forum---FUCK-YOU-ALL, YOU-MOTHER-FUCKER--Thais. YOU-MOTHER-FUCKER Thai country will be down to a hell in next ten day. It's also a good news that a Thai whore notified me last night in a brothel that a THAI KING has been passed away because of STROKE. It's really me so happy to hear that.

Yes, we Khmer shut first because are invader into Khmer land, that is our right. Well, you Thai can lie the international community further but who are still believing in you ?
I can tell you that during Khmer had civil war (1970-1993), you had cheated the tourists on the Globe that Angkor Wat was belong to you. But the question where you are and where are your from?
Answer: "During the Mongol Emperor Kublai Khan invaded China 1206-1294 . Thai, Loa, Viet Chinese and the other etnics fled from China to Khmer Empire Land and all etnics stayed with Khmer in peace". And now you clain Prah Vihear belong to you, please read the real history.

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.
