The Preah Vihear temple was listed as a World Heritage site in 2008 |
BBC news - 9 November 2013
The chief of Cambodia's
military forces on the Thailand border has called an emergency meeting
after Thai aircraft were seen flying low around disputed land near the
Preah Vihear temple.
A helicopter and small spotter plane were seen early on Saturday.
Tension on the border is high ahead of a verdict due on
Monday by the UN's highest court on where the border lies around the
ancient temple.
Fighting in the area in 2011 left 18 people dead and thousands displaced.
The BBC's Jonathan Head in Bangkok says Cambodian troops have
dug trenches and bunkers near the temple and similar fortifications are
visible on the Thai side.
However, Cambodian regional commander General Srey Deuk told
the BBC on Saturday he expected no problems with the Thai military after
Monday's verdict.
He said no troop reinforcements had been brought up to the temple.
A 1962 verdict by the International Court of Justice (ICJ)
declared the temple to be Cambodian but did not rule on the area around
it.
Cambodia sought a clarification of the ruling in 2011 after fighting broke out.
Both countries have agreed to abide by the ICJ ruling but
fears remain that nationalist groups may stir up violence in border
villages.
Thai nationalist group the Thai Patriotic Network has already
said it will reject any judgement from the ICJ, The Nation newspaper
reported.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has ordered troops along the border to stay calm.
"I'd like to appeal to all armed forces who are on duty to
defend the border to keep calm, exercise utmost restraint and avoid any
activities that could lead to tension or clashes," he said in a
televised broadcast on Thursday.
He said he and Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra had
agreed that their two countries "have to comply with this decision and
try to maintain peace and stability along the border at any cost".

thailand's claim line was siem's unilateral line. cambodia's line was siem-franco treaty line which one you think the icj will rule in favor? the illegal line or the treaty line? keep in mind, the court of law is lawful, siem's disrespect is not lawful! so, who do you think the court finds justice for? think! yes, the court is the court of law,not the court of bribery!

That is undemocratic action by school of vice for deleting free speech. You can delete their free expressions from the board buf you can not kill their souls.
4:40am, free speech without ethical code of conduct and self-restraint is called abuse of that rights. people can have freedom speech, but think open you open your mouth. sometimes, people use the freedom of speech to complicate the matter, not supporting it. in all public services and professional jobs, to prevent the abuse from freedom, etc, the organization usually put in place a disclaimer or a ethical code of conduct to protect itself and other's rights as well. cambodian people should practice this more.
comes monday, the border line around cambodia's preah vihear temple will be clear to everybody!
5:59am/School of Vice,
The public readers have observed that you have deleted so many posts neither they abused nor they insulted you. They, many only expressed their anger toward Yuo, but you are the one who abuse others' free speech. KI created by my uncle under a fake name Moan Preuk (MP), he had never made rules, he loved to read Khmers learned how to express themselves. It is just a Khmer Blog to colect Khmers around the world if they are able to enter KI. Khmer people from all walk of life will learn from one another how to debate as civilized people, they dont need you to be a policeman or
policewoman.
If you keep deleting their posts without offering your arguments, how are you going to help some Khmers to know or ever understand what they have expressed were right or wrong?
Your behavior make you a very negative nasty cruel dictator just like Hun Sen and those evils in CPP.
You are very Irrational nasty being looking down on Khmer people and to you they are just nothing.
There are No righteousness among us, but we can learn from each others for a better Khmer society.
PEACE

Excellent argument.
NO Righteous Not even 10 000 Buddhas including the last Buddha, except Christ the living God (Preah Rouss or Preah Se Art Metrey).
It's Communist style, everyone are wrong except themselves.
No such thing. If the Viet can come and go as they please, so can the Thai.
I would like to invite the Laotian as well.
Lets not discriminate....Hun Sen.
