Somehow those Thai war ship are just junk from western world, where Angkor Wat is more than gold.

I think Thai military leaders want to scare Khmer military leaders with their fleet of warships, that's why they try to show them off to Khmer military leaders.

Dirty tricks.

Yep.... Thailand's so-called good gesture doesn't necessarily translates to good impression by Cambodian. Whatever Thailand's psychological game is with Cambodia, I think most of us can clealy see that. Maybe Cambodia need to show Thailand general Tul Sleng(S-21) torturing house, instead of Angkor Wat.
