Thai PM Calls for Peace at the Thai-Cambodian Border



2011-05-09

Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva is calling for peace on the Thai-Cambodian border. At the ASEAN meeting on Sunday, he met with journalists, making a plea for peace.

[Abhisit Vejjajiva, Thai Prime Minister]:
"Because after all the objective of what we are doing shouldn't be about scoring political points, but thinking that there is some kind of technical victory on one issue or another. But the ultimate objective must be to achieve lasting peace. So, that both our people can live peacefully side by side along the Thai-Cambodian border.”


Southeast Asian leaders failed to achieve any breakthrough to end deadly border skirmishes between Thailand and Cambodia.

The clashes around crumbling Hindu temples in disputed areas have starkly illustrated the tensions between countries in the ASEAN. This could derail plans to create a single economic community by 2015, and the apparent inability of the bloc to deal with disagreements.

Indonesia has been pressing for a deal that would prevent the meeting being marred by the border dispute. But in the end all that was achieved was an announcement that the Thai and Cambodian foreign ministers would stay an extra day in Jakarta for more talks.

Earlier, Cambodian prime minister Hun Sen said the removal of "the armed forces from our own territory is not acceptable."

The two sides have spoken plenty of times in recent weeks, but without finding a resolution to the clashes.

Both Thailand & Cambodia need to adopt a New Religion, the Islamic religion of Peace!

Islam's Latest Contribution to Peace

2011.05.07 (Pattani, Thailand) - Muslim militants detonate a bomb at a soccer field where police are playing a friendly game with villagers, killing four.

2011.05.07 (Narathiwat, Thailand) - Religious separatists shoot a farmer to death.

2011.05.08 (Pattani, Thailand) - Islamists gun down two Buddhists in front of a mosque.

While Thai PM is calling for peace to win or campaigning for his political gain we Cambodia must call for the return of former Khmer provinces from Thailand such as:

Trat
Prachin Bori
Chantha Bori
Srah Keo
Surin
Nokor Reach
Borirom
Srey Sah Kae (Sisaket)
Kompaeng Pich
Cheya Bori
Chieng Mai
Chieng Rai
Chieng Tong
Tonle Mae Tirk (Tonle Maenam)
And many many more!!!!

Both Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva & Hanoi Slave Hun Sen have buttholes for mouths. Shit keeps on coming out from both of their mouths. Every one knows that this whole border dispute is all about satisfying one's own domestic agenda, INCLUDING VIETNAM'S.

I say Vietnam because Vietnam benefits economically from all of this. Hanoi will always use Hun Sen as a proxy and push him to stir the pot and add fuel to the flame with Thailand. What better way to divert investment, economic growth and tourism away from Thailand and into Vietnam???

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 30,000 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 30,000km2 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 30,000 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 every day.

Who signed the treaty 1979-1985 that resulted in the loss over 30,000 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?

Koh Tral was a Cambodian island, and technically and legally, remained a Cambodian island until today.

Smart Khmer girl Ms. Rattana Keo,

The new policy of Hun Sen regime today is to kill all Ex Khmer Rouge because they are the true Khmer patriot that can be harmful to Hun Sen regime as Vietnam slave.

Hun Sen regime sends all Ex Khmer rouge soldiers to frontline fighting with Thai army without enough weapons and foods. Hun Sen ordered the front line army do not fire back to Thai Army while they bomb Ex Khmer Rouge over 50 000 shells. These actions are representing very clear that Hun Sen is trying to clear or kill all Ex Khmer Rouge army by using Thai hands.

The true and real Khmer patriots are the enemy of Hun Sen regime. Vietnam is scare of Ex Khmer Rouge Soldiers as they have been defeat Vietnam army (Over 10 000 Vietnam soldiers have been killed by EX Khmer Rouge Army in Cambodia. That is lead to Vietnam withdraw out of Cambodia) before 1993.

Since Hun Sen was a Khmer Rouge commander of the Democratic Kampuchea Pol Pot Khmer Rouge Regime, now a Khmer Rouge leader of the Cambodian Peoples Party Hun Sen Khmer Rouge Regime and had many of his political opponents and journalists assassinated, I wonder if he have any plan to assassinate the Thai Prime Minister (Ahbullshit Vejjajiva)?

Thai Prime Minister Ahbullshit Vejjajiva is calling for peace on the Thai-Cambodian border.

Why Thai Prime Minister Ahbullshit Vejjajiva is not willing to remove Thai troops out of Cambodia?

Is Thai Prime Minister Ahbullshit Vejjajiva think that the whole world is stupid?

Thai Prime Minister Ahbullshit Vejjajiva say good things at the same time do bad things (the opposite), what is this mean?

Ahbullshit Vejjajiva is UNFIT to be a Thai Prime Minister.

Thiefland continue to have ambitions to steal more Khmer lands, what's a shame.

Thiefland cannot get enough of Khmer lands.

The definition of Thiefland is land of the thief.

Siamese/Thai peoples is known to the Khmer peoples as thugs, peoples who likes to rob and steal.  Without saying a word, just look at the Thailand and Cambodia map.

Thailand is a former Khmer territory.
When you and/or your ancestors steal from the Khmer peoples, it doesn't mean that it is yours.
Just think about it.
What it's mean is you and/or ancestors are a thief.

Ahbullshit Vejjajiva please do me a favor, go back to school and learn your REAL regional history.
