The Cambodian military claimed that, according to the 1904-1908 treaty maps, Chak Chreng is located in Cambodian territory. About a week ago, it was occupied by about 30 Thai soldiers and so far they have resisted Cambodia's request for them to withdraw from the area.

Gen. Srey Doek (pictured), commander of the Preah Vihear precinct, told Reaksmei Kampuchea that, during the meeting with Thai commanders at Wat Sekha Kirisvarak, he demanded a Thai total withdrawal from Chak Chreng, but the Thai commanders said that their troops were based in the areas shortly after Thai troops occupied Preah Vihear 0n 15th July 2008, not just a week ago. The Thai side proposed both sides go to inspect the area.
Cambodian military sources claimed that, in the last few days, Thailand had sent more troops to the border areas along Surin, Sisaket and Ubon provinces. They added that the Thai military had also increased military reconnaissance flights over the areas.

What are u waiting for, General? If u claimed that Chak Chreng is located in Cambodian territory and u always said that Hun Xen policy would not let Thais occupy Cambodia territory even 1 mm. R u afraid of Thais?
Khmer Kids..........
The starting point of this problem because last year when cambodia asked UNESCO to register preah vihear temple, cambodia agree with thai FM to registered only preah vihear body temple only to UNESCO.
Now we can hear thai official in bangkok warned to UNESCO, cambodia land has only preah vihear body temple.
When it going to finish this problem? it takes hundred year.
Because our govt, hun sen govt, is bad in this issue. We are khmer, we have bad leader like this.
Come on, Wake up all khmer people, stop think that we are winner because we can register Preah vihear body temple only. At reality, we are loser. Since cambodia govt agree to registered only body temple. Thailand side start to used their own (before they never talk about their own map). they used their own map to violated any previous siam-france treaty or ICJ decision 1962. From this, thailand start to come to cambodia by said this part is their .......
Khmer is loser because of agreement with thailand to register only preah vihear body temple only.
Very sad to see our territories being raped and violated by our neighbors everyday. Khmer troops should be more tough than that. They should be ordered to open fires, to the air first, whenever Thai troops encroached into our territories. Thai troops would do the same if we encroached on their territories.
