This is a conflict between Thailand and Cambodia or Khmer contra Thai and not an internal conflict between CPP and the opposition parties.
Love or not love the CPP, but I accept the situation, because I still love my country Cambodia very much and I want to be a Khmer with a real Khmer ID and not a like most of the Khmer traitors with a Thai ID.
They pretend to be Khmer, but they attack our country Cambodia (the country of their ancestors) and the Khmer people almost every day.
Point 4 in the statement "At the end of the investigation...the CIJ will lay out..." I thought the CIJ closed the investigation 3 weeks ago. Does this mean that the CIJs have conceded to the CIP's request for further investigation and the "concluded" investigation was inadequate?
