A Khmer-language book about border disputes between Thailand and its neighbours has been compiled and published by the Institute of International Relations.

The book, titled "Border Disputes Between Thailand And Its Neighbours", has been researched and written by Prof. Sok Touch and 5 groups of historians and Ph.D students from Royal Academy of Cambodia.

The 282-page book was divided into 5 chapters with analyses on each chapter. The first chapter describes about Thailand's internal crisis and its analysis. The second chapter covers Thailand-Laos border disputes and analyses, the third chapter talks about Thailand-Malaysia border disputes and analyses, the fourth chapter describes about Thailand-Burma border disputes and analyses and the fifth chapter covers Khmer-Thai border disputes and analyses.

Prof. Sok Touch said the aim of the book is to show about Thailand's ill-intentions and its border disputes with neighbouring countries who are also fellow members of Asean just like Thailand. "The research also wants to show that all recent as well as past border disputes between Cambodia and Thailand were all caused by Thailand", he said.

You forgot to mention ah Youn Communist Yeak Cong. They enroached our land and Khmer Krom illegally. We want it back in the near future. Khmers are smart people. We built the Temples but we being plaqued by parasites from our neighbouring countries to break us apart so we cannot be united and strong as one whole country.

It's good that a book about the Khmer-Thai disputes is written from the Khmer perspective, but from what the proffesor said in this article, looks like he is not an objective writer, but sound very biased already. If so, how can we trust the historical details or perspective of this book.
