BANGKOK, June 30 (TNA) -- Thailand and Cambodia will discuss troop reductions at their common border as neither side wishes to use force in settling the ongoing territorial dispute, Thai Army Commander-in-Chief Gen. Anupong Paochinda said on Tuesday.Gen. Anupong told journalists that both the Thai and Cambodian governments agreed that it would be futile to use force in settling the border dispute.
He said Thai troops deployed near the ancient Preah Vihear temple would be “reduced to an appropriate level” in accordance with the government’s policy.
Discussions with Cambodia will have to be made in detail regarding the number of soldiers to be cut, including the timing of the reduction, he said.
The exact timeframe has not yet been fixed as the reduction is up to the satisfaction level of both sides, he added.
Tensions along the two countries’ border, especially near Preah Vihear temple, have risen after the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Oganization (UNESCO) granted the historic temple World Heritage Site status in July 2008.

AnuPORNG Kdor is playing cool game again, he is trying to show the red shirt some things. I and all Khmer never truth you and your nation, never. You spent a lot of money for your army movement, your show off, you tactics all along Cambodia-Thai border and set up a strong base in the front line, and you told that the talk about reduce the army from both side, shit, is that so easy? Don't you need to get the approval from your parliment first? Do you think Khmer believe you any more?
Battambang man
That's right, what is the next step will this PORNG KDOR Siam army will do?
flip flop too much you will fale at the end.
And let Siam know too ,this is the first time ever I heard Hun Sen warning about your jet fighters not to cross border line or else (SAM) will or acidently shoot down your jets.
First time!!! wich is I supported this warning too.
Watch out Siam, Khmer poeple getting more and more up sad with you.
Khmer KK.
To all Khmer army at the front line, don't believe this bastard saying! this son of a bitch is buying time only! remembered Thailand wanted their troops to occupy 4.6km lands, they still cliams the lands is belong to them..?
Thai playing soft tricks still...
No one is buying this BS! Remember thais started this whole thing and they have been manipulating the issue to fit their agenda. Diplomacy talks and border negotiations have never worked, so it is time to use force to remove all thai troop s from Cambodia territory.
Thailand, be ready to prepare cofin for your troops if you violate border agreement with cambodia.
