[Thai] Army 'has no plan to attack'

Commander of Army Region 1 (Northeast) Lt-Gen Udomdej Sitabutr insisted on Wednesday that Thailand has no plan to attack Cambodia.

“The army chief has made it a clear-cut policy that Thailand will not invade any country first, but if our country is invaded, the armed forces are ready to protect it,” Lt-Gen Udomdej said, responding to unsourced rumours.

The commander of Army Region 1 said Cambodia had reinforced its infantry along the Thai-Cambodian border but not by many, and the reinforcements had no effect on the Thai armed forces.


He said border trade in Sa Kaew province continues as usual.

Lt-Gen Udomdej said the border dispute has nothing to do with the July 3 election and that the polls will take place as planned.

He denied as baseless a report that the military had lobbied people to support a particular political party, insisting that the military will definitely stay impartial.

There is NO WAR,there is NO PEACE.
If ah Hun Sen is still in POWER,
CAMBODIANS has NO PEACE IN MIND.
They want HUN SEN to BE DEAD.
Thai wants to KILL ah HUN SEN,so
does Vietnam;then they share Khmer
land.
This how Cambodian leaders leaned
on both of them.
Or Khmer people have a choice to
be free from Thai-Vietnam and
Hun Sen dictator.
