Bilateral talks with Thailand over withdrawing troops from the newly defined demilitarised zone are impossible, says Cambodia premier Hun Sen.
He agreed troops should be withdrawn simultaneously, but said talks with Indonesia as a third party would be needed first.
Hun Sen said Cambodia wanted to respond quickly to Monday's verdict by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, which ordered troops from Thailand and Cambodia to pull out of the area around Preah Vihear temple to prevent further clashes.
"We must withdraw troops simultaneously. The ruling requires both sides to withdraw troops, not just Cambodia," Hun Sen said.
Cambodia was ready to hold tripartite talks with Thailand and Indonesia, the current Asean chair, he added, as Bangkok appeared reluctant to act first to comply with the ICJ ruling.
Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya said he would set up a committee for negotiating with Cambodia following the ICJ ruling.
However, Hun Sen said bilateral talks were "impossible" under the outgoing government of Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva.
"Tripartite negotiations between Cambodia, Thailand and Indonesia can be held anytime, anywhere, and at any levels," he said.
Hun Sen added he is looking forward to working with the new government which is expected to led by Pheu Thai's Yingluck Shinawatra.
Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton yesterday said Asean would be the best forum for Thailand and Cambodia to resolve their differences.
Both sides should refrain "from taking steps that would escalate into violence", she said during an Asean summit on the Indonesian resort island of Bali. In other news, the 2nd Army yesterday allowed residents and tourists to enter the disputed area around Preah Vihear, including the Pha Mor I Dang cliff, during weekends and public holidays, said Khao Phra Viharn national park chief Theerayut Wongpaisoet. The cliff is a major military base. The 2nd Army also allowed traders from Phum Srol village in Si Sa Ket's Kantharalak district to re-open outlets to sell souvenirs and other goods.

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 everyday.
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?
Smart Khmer girl, President Ms. Rattana Keo,
Why Hun Sen will not want to talk
with Abhisit ?Because he is his
friend;Thaksin or Yingluck that
what Hun Sen want to.
Hun Sen,Thaksin,and Yingluck will
share oil well at Cambodia-Thai
sea water coast.Three of them want
to be rich and famous.They are
Khmer and Thai bloodsuckers.
Hun Sen will wait to talk with
Yingluck and Thaksin cabinet.
