During the ceremony to launch the installation of the Cambodian-Vietnamese land border markers at the Bavet-Moc Bai frontier pass in the morning of 27 September 2006 both Prime Minister Hun Sen, head of the Cambodian Government, and Vietnamese PM Nguyen Tan Dung publicly declared that they would complete installing border markers at six other main border passes by the end of December 2006. And we are now almost at the end of January 2007 but the border installation at the other six main border passes is far from being completed as planned. Moreover, Va Kimhong, chairman of the government's border commission, has never said anything about all of that although all circles are generally waiting to learn from him with great interest.
As the time for the planting of border markers at the main frontier passes is being extended like a rubber band, the Vietnamese suddenly resumed their acts of encroachment on and aggression against Cambodia's territory at a border pass in O Yadav district, Rotanakiri province without a trace of hesitation or fear. The Vietnamese authorities refused to respect the agreement between the governments of the two countries and did not care about the complementary treaty signed as a supplement to the 1985 state border delimitation treaty. This probably is because the Vietnamese authorities know that the leaders of the current Cambodian Government are indebted to Vietnam and would not dare to say anything when Vietnam infringes on Cambodia's sovereignty and conduct aggressive acts against Cambodia along the common border.
According to border defense officials in Rotanakiri province, the Vietnamese recently made preparations to build a bridge in Cambodian territory regarded as the white zone adjacent to Lom village, O Yadav district, Rotanakiri province. A source who asked to remain anonymous said that last week the Vietnamese brought in iron rods, cement, and crushed stone as part of materials for their project to build the O Kuma Bridge, which is near the advanced outpost of the Cambodian border police, in violation of the agreement jointly signed by the border authorities of the two countries.
Hor Ang, deputy police inspector of Rotanakiri province, acknowledged that the above report was correct and that the Vietnamese side did not give the Cambodian counterpart any prior notice.
An official of the Cambodian border police in O Yadav district said that the O Kuma Bridge in Lom village, Pak Nhai commune, O Yadav district is 6 meters wide adjacent to the Vietnamese border in the so-called white zone, which is under the negotiation of the border affairs authorities of the two countries.
The commander of the military border defense battalion of Rotanakiri province, Li Sovannara, on Thursday 18 January affirmed that the Vietnamese side did not suspend the bridge-building activities as promised, while Cambodians living near the area where the Vietnamese authorities were building the bridge said that the Vietnamese side conducted the construction work without postponing it as requested by the Rotanakiri provincial authorities.
Concerning this issue, Va Kimhong, chairman of Cambodia's National Committee for Resolving Border Problems [NCRBP], admitted that he had told the Vietnamese side to suspend the construction activities and had ordered the Rotanakiri provincial authorities to send him a report as soon as possible.
Nevertheless, the Cambodian people of Lom village, Pak Nhai commune claimed that the Vietnamese side continues to carry on the construction activities with arrogance, refusing to suspend the work as requested by Va Kimhong.
As for the Rotanakiri provincial authorities, they have not made any remarkable reaction to the acts of aggression of the Vietnamese authorities because they know that the Vietnamese are the benefactors of the ruling Cambodian People's Party [CPP].
It should be noted that in 2005 the Vietnamese side encroached on Cambodian territory when it graded land to build a road and logged trees along both sides of the road that extended 2 km from the white zone linking Vietnam's inspection post No. 724 with the post at the Cambodian frontier gate. In April 2006 the Vietnamese side again encroached on Cambodian territory when it built an asphalted road into the white zone and flew Vietnamese flags there.
The NCRBP headed by Va Kimhong has never been seen taking any measure to deal with the afore-mentioned activities of the Vietnamese authorities who have violated the so-called agreement between the two sides.
Border activists and independent observers said that after the start of the installation of the land border markers at the Bavet-Moc Bai frontier pass on 27 September 2006, the Vietnamese side should have ended all its acts of encroachment on and aggression against Cambodian territory along the border; but the truth is that the Vietnamese side has not done so. This shows that the treaty supplemental to the 1985 state border delimitation treaty that PM Hun Sen signed with former Vietnamese PM Phan Van Khai on 10 October 2005 could not stop the aggressive acts of the Vietnamese side although PM Hun Sen boasted that this complementary treaty would be beneficial to Cambodia.
The border activists and independent observers analyzed that the activities of the Vietnamese authorities in intruding into Cambodia to build a bridge on Cambodian soil regarded as the white zone in Lom village, Pak Nhai commune, O Yadav district, Rotanakiri province last week were proof testifying to the fact that the Vietnamese side did not respect the agreement between the governments of the two countries. On the contrary, the Vietnamese side has continued to nurture a brutal ambition to encroach on and commit aggression against Cambodian territory in spite of the official installation of the border markers launched on 27 September 2006 at the Bavet-Moc Bai frontier pass under the chairmanship of the Prime Ministers of the two countries.
Analysts have evaluated that so long as the CPP remains victorious at the polls and continues to rule Cambodia, Vietnam will always carry on its acts of encroachment on and aggression against Cambodian territory, just as it is doing now. This is because Vietnam is the benefactor of the CPP leadership. Therefore, when Vietnam infringes on Cambodia's sovereignty or conducts any acts of encroachment on and aggression against Cambodian territory, the CPP leadership certainly would not dare say a word. This is why the Vietnamese authorities recently were not reluctant to intrude into Cambodia and build a bridge in the border area of O Yadav district, Rotanakiri province. This is because they knew very well how the leaders of the Cambodian Government would react.

Huh? What Did I say about Yuan?
The Beast Hun Sen cannot caugh because he cannot read or write.
Yuan installed Hun Sen to power because Yuan knew Hun Sen is easy to be manipulated as long as give him power he will do the job like killing his own people without thinking twice. Yuan are always Yuan. Yuan Conspiracy by creating the genocide in Cambodia, making Khmers killed Khmers.
Oh, shove it. I can see the SRP
finger prints all over the article.
Just want to share with everyone that it is true that Ah Youn agression will never stop until they conquer the whole Cambodia, which they eventually will if the opposition will not win the election.
I went to this O Yadav in 2002 the border marks had been removed along time ago and Youn built a black top road inside Cambodian territory. I asked the soldiers and the border customs who worked there. They said,"Our boss told ask to work here, if anyone dared to question the border issue, he or she would be replaced to work some where else or fired from the job." It's ridiculous. From what the soldires told me it is true Ah Youn can do anything to Khmer, but Khmers have to listen to Youn, Ah Sen's boss. The soldiers and custom border patrols have been working for Ah Youn since January 1979. This is no racist for those who think I am biased. Visit the boder in, Yadav, Bavet, Ten Hann (Kampot), or Chantrea and talk to the powerless villagers who lost their land and ask them what happened to their land that they used to farm or grow crops before 1979. Do not just talk online and assume and then accuse those who are against Ah Sen and Ah Youn and those who try to protect the poor and save the Country.
Four years after I visited O Yadav Ah Youn is still encroaching the border. Imagine the border line that no one has ever check how many miles do Ah Youn move their border into Cambodia?
12:19 PM. Yuan will use all possibilities to frame Khmers. Yuan divide Khmers and Yuan killed Khmers and continue to kill Khmers by all means. Yuan will call Khmers Ethiopian, Extremists, Racist.. you name it. But folks, don't let these Yuan bother your mind. They go too low then don't you lower yourself with them.
Yeah right, we all know KK
extremists who abused khmers and
then blamed on Hanoi. What is a
bunch of fools?
It's very interesting that we've also got the Viet audience on the KI Media, such as Post@12:19PM and Post@1:21PM. That's good, because I always thought that my expressed concern about Cambodia's well-being only fell on deaf ears and blind eyes. Whatever your civilised views, the courageous Viet commentators, I wish to welcome your participation in this forum!
boy, you just know that? ah yuon n' mi yuon are everywhere even in your shit.
ah-jey-t'leak-teuk
Yeah, and all over your face too.
True Yuan are everywhere in Cambodia, many made themselves Khmers no surprised to Khmers because all the record were detroyed during Khmer Rouge regime.
Yeah, you can't blame anyone for
that when you and your backstabers
SISOWATT Sarimatakis people caused
the destruction of Cambodia. Can
you?
