BANGKOK, 1 June 2011 – The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has ensured that the Thai legal team did the best to elaborate with the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on the Preah Vihear Temple dispute after Cambodia sought an interpretation of the ICJ’s 1962 ruling on the temple case.
According to Secretary to the Foreign Minister Chavanond Intarakomalyasut, the Thai delegation, led by Thai Ambassador to the Netherlands Virachai Plasai, told the ICJ that Cambodia has hidden agenda in this temple row, especially in regard to Thai-Cambodian border skirmishes.
As for the Cambodian request asking the ICJ to issue a temporary injunction ordering Thailand to withdraw troops from the disputed zone while the verdict interpretation is in process, the Thai side insisted that the ICJ has no authority to do so, and the request should be dropped.
The result of the request will be concluded in the next three to four weeks. For the time being, both Thailand and Cambodia must present written information about detailed losses from border clashes such as fatalities and evacuation plans, to the ICJ within 18.00 hrs of 7 June 2011.
The ICJ then will forward the submitted information to both conflicting countries for acknowledgement, after which it will allow both sides to make objections in writing and return clarifications within 18.00 hrs of 14 June 2011. The ICJ then will issue the date to read the court’s verdict which will be informed via the Thai embassy.
After elaborating the details, Mr Chavanond stressed that the Thai delegation has performed the best in explaining the temple row with the ICJ. He believed that Cambodia will not be able to take any further action once the ICJ has pronounced the verdict.

Thai is nothing more than a big bad neighbour who never leave Cambodian in peace. Khmer should never let down their guard. Khmer must be self reliant on their own first and formost, however, at the same time we need to have more capable ambasadors to build net-work of friends, educate them the fact about Khmer-border. Thai teach theirs kids lies, teach their people lie so they are basically got twisted. With racist nature, Thai are not going to leave us alone. Since we can not just move, have to fight back, that is the only thing we can do. Negotion is not an option. How is one define negotiation? Thai just move their armies to Khmer land and temples, then want a negotion? Is that make sense? Can Khmer negotiate to have half control of Bangkoc? Is that make sense-no,of-cours not. Same thing that is not making sense Thai keep trying to negotiate for our land and templse.
