Army chief Prayuth Chan-ocha has expressed concern over Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen's plan to build a nuclear power plant in Cambodia's Koh Kong province adjacent to Thailand's Trat province.
Gen Prayuth said he wanted Cambodia to discuss the plan with other Asean members first.
He was speaking after Hun Sen raised the matter at the 30th Asean Ministers Meeting on Energy in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, last month.
The meeting, themed Asean Green Connectivity, aimed to boost co-operation in the energy sector among the bloc's members and promote the efficient use of energy, green energy and an integrated Asean power grid.
Hun Sen said during the meeting that he was interested in building a nuclear power plant in Koh Kong province to pave the way for economic expansion in the country.
Energy Minister Arak Chonlatanon, who also attended the meeting, said he was worried about the plan as Thailand would surely be affected by it.
A Foreign Ministry official said Hun Sen's plan was too ambitious as the area still lacked proper public infrastructure systems for construction of a nuclear power plant. He said Cambodia was only conducting a feasibility study to build a coal power plant in Koh Kong province and was inviting Thai companies to invest in the construction.

well cambodia is very small and is very vulnerable and therefore it is good we have a nuclear plan in place. Doing so, for its own protection. Cambodia is not far from losing everything right now because of the whole system is being controlled by the outsiders and it is about to be ruined in the few years if there is no intervention from the democratic of the west. We need new plan, first hun and his clan must quite secondly, we need to be independent (none interfering from outsiders)...but still need support in an honest way in term of policy making, providing effective rule of law to rule the nation. No one is above the law that is, no robbing, stealling and killing the poor but more infrastures, expanding in agriculture for trade and share commonality being " human existence" etc.
Having nuclear power plant would not protect Cambodia from outside's influence but it could wipe out Cambodia from the map.
Nuclear energy is cheap to produce electric city but very dangerous. Just look at what happened to Japan.
It needs huge resources, well management and experties to get the job done right and Cambodia has none of these.

DUMB Hun Sen accuses Mom Sonando of creating an anti-government state using villagers who cant even afford to have chicken feed and pig feed for the Chicken and Pigs.
Now DUMB Hun Sen discusses plan for nuclear in ASEAN Meeting? How DUMB is Hun Sen? Is he one step away from being the dumbest person alive?
I don't know what they will do. But recently VN gov't have signed with Japan gov't and Russian gov't to build nuke power in VN. What I worry is experience of Thai's company.
Ah Pler Hun Sen, what the F*** is he thinking... Japan whom is a well develop country through out still can bearly handle the nuclear problem how the F*** does he think his corrupted CPP can manage. Just imagine while build a facility Hun Sen say it cost $1B where is that money coming from? and when building since for 30 years he have not contribute to skilling the Khmer population, illegal Vietnamese in Cambodia may be yes...but in a disaster the hold souther east asia will be wipe out...good on you stupid Prime Minster Hun Sen....
Hun Sen was a killer 30 years ago. Hun Sen joined Khmer Rogue to kill the Khmer and became a Khmer Rogue Commander but the Vietnamese trusted Hun Sen. So they gave Hun Sen the power to kill more Khmer in te K5 Planning after the Vietnamese invasion in 1980s. Hun Sen is a killer of Khmer people risen to kill Khmer.
Current Deputy Prime Minister is Hor Nam Hong. Also a Khmer Rogue Cheif officer in charge of the camp killings, signing away many Khmer to die.
CPP were all former Khmer Rogue who still uses the same policy as his boss. Kill Khmer.
The same here in USA, I have a friend who borrows me money but he is driving better and newer SUV.
But he saves quarter and penny for gasoline.
Some people here can eat egg and prahok and go hungry for few days as long as they have a nicer, bigger, newer SUV parking in the parking lot.
Back home, Cambodian people can tighten their belt for the nuke.
khmer people share similiar ideology with North Korean, just kidding...
IT'S OKAY TO BE KVACK, BUT TO BE KVACK AND LORP, THERE'S NO EXCUSE WHATSOEVER.
