Cambodian civil society are disappointing at the behaviours of the Thai institutions for pointing fingers at each other when it comes to who has the powers to resolve border conflicts with Cambodia.

Mr. Heng Samrin reportedly told Mr. Chai Chidchob, who is an ethnic Khmer from Surin province, to withdraw Thai troops from Cambodian territories during a meeting at the parliament house on the afternoon of 23rd July, but the later can only promise to convey the message to the Thai government.

Mr. Rong Chhun, president of the Cambodian Independent Teachers Association, said that he is disappointed with answers of the visiting Thai Speaker of the Thai parliament.

In the past, Cambodian leaders had made the same request to the leaders of Thai government about troop withdrawals but they responded the withdrawals cannot be done until the agreements were ratified by the Thai parliament.

Cambodia and Thailand signed several agreements about troop withdrawals but the agreements are still awaiting approval from the Thai parliament, nearly a year of the agreements were signed.

Mr. Rong Chhun said the finger-pointing between the different branches of the Thai institutions is disappointing. Mr. Rong Chhun said this is a Thai tactics of blame games because they have no real intentions of withdrawing their troops from Cambodian territories.

Mr. Rong Chhun urged the Cambodian government to stop engaging in bilateral negotiations with Thailand because numerous talks in the past resulted in no solution. He said the Cambodian government should take the matter to the international mediation by using the Franco-Siamese Treaty of 1907 as base.

Mr. Rong Chhun is right. Thai leaders are playing games by shifting the blames to each other regarding border resolution with Cambodia.

When Cambodia talked to Thai government leaders they say they will convey the message to Thai parliament to ratify the agreements on troop withdrawals and when we talk to the Thai leader of parliament he said he will convey the message to Thai government leaders. This is a joke. They are playing a hide-and-seek game with Cambodia. They treated us like children because our leaders, like Mr. Hun Sen, are stupid.

9:46pm, true, the Thais are smart. They make Khmers fighting Khmers. Most frontline soldiers are Khmer Surin. Now they use a Khmer Surin for diplomacy- Khmers are killing Khmers.

YOUN HUNTER SAID, "

Why do I get the feeling that the imposters Youn or Siem is sneaking up, making smart-ass comment, and cowardly hidding as anonymous.

Talking about using Khmer to kill Khmer, this goes the same with the dog meat eating Youn. Youn hid their coward skins under Khmer Rouge and killed 1.7 millions Khmer. Pol Pot joined Viet Minh and with the blessing from Hanoi, Pol Pot became the Khmer Rouge leader. Pol Pot recruited Khmer, those Khmer trained by Hanoi Viet Cong to kill Cambodian.

Yea..the dog meat eating Youn are smart too..huh? And you've asked yourself why I call you the dog meat eating Youn. You're the dogs, that only bark in the dark. I dare you to come out of your hole, I got leash that's ready for your neck."
