Thai Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya, dispatched to Cambodia by Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva, failed to secure the release of an MP and his co-accused trespassers after the Cambodian government refused to intervene to the court to release them, saying that it cannot interfere in the legal process.
Thai MP Panich Vikitsreth, a former assistant to Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya, a prominent Thai ultra-nationalist Veera Somkwamkid and 5 others were arrested near O'Chrov town on Wednesday 29th December after they had trespassed into Cambodian territory illegally.
Thai PM Abhisit Vejjajiva immediately dispatched Mr. Kasit to Phnom Penh to secure their release, but after nearly an hour of meeting, Mr. Kasit emerged to tell reporters that both sides had agreed to leave the matter to the Cambodian legal system to decide first before any diplomatic solution can be negotiated. "We have travelled here to listen to the truth about the 7 Thai nationals. For us, we came here to tell the truth that the Thai side respects the Cambodian legal process. We asked that the Cambodian government to move this process forward as fast as can be done", he said.
Cambodian Foreign Minister Hor Namhong told reporters that this is not the first time, the Thai ultra-nationalists had entered Cambodian territory illegally, pointing out that Veera Somkwamkid had been briefly detained before for illegally entering Cambodian territory. "I want to say that this kind of trespassing into Cambodian territory is not the first time, but the third time. The first time took place in July and the second time happened in September, but they didn't enter too deep into Cambodian territory and we detained them briefly but sent them back to Thailand. But now they have entered too deep into Chok Chey village, about 400 to 500 metres from the border. The 7 Thai nationals did not walk a straight way directly 400 to 500 metres to the village, but they walked 1200 metres along border post No. 46 to reach the village", he said.
Mr. Hor Namhong added that Mr. Kasit had acknowledged that the 7 Thai nationals had trespassed too deep into Cambodian territory.
The two sides started their meeting at 4 p.m, half an hour after the Phnom Penh Court sent the 7 Thai nationals to Preysor Prison after its session ended at 3:30 p.m. They were charged under Article 473 of Criminal Code and Article 29 of Immigration Laws. If convicted under Article 29 0f Immigration Laws they could face between 3-6 months jail before being deported. However, if convicted under Criminal Code they could face up to 6 months to one year jail and fined from 1,000,000 ($250) to 2,000,000 riels ($500).
The 7 Thai nationals, including one MP from the ruling Democrat Party, were arrested at 10 a.m on Wednesday 29th December at Chok Chey village near border post No. 46 in O'Bei Choan commune, O'Chrov district in Banteay Meanchey province.

PLEASE KHMERIZATION HeLP ME POST MY ARTICLE IN ki BLOGE
This is the dirty stratergy from thai Game, It a Game, give ground to get ground, if we let them free next time thugs PAD will be in Preah Vihear or in Siem reap. no one want to have problem with Thai, and Thai MP they know laws, boundery very clearly, but they doese it to gain somethings. Hun sen he is more smarter than those who used to call him AH or idoit, chker, AH kwark, or Kbout Jeat, or Ah YORng YOun, or AH Phleor. any way stope call people AH AH AH. Interlected people they never call their son Ah Ah, so why so many smarts in KI call hun sen Ah, I doubt about thise people being braind wash? He who serve The Khmer rough and Kill millions of Khmer those are truthly Kbout Jeat and IDOit. Thise is result of flar up the boder whice is durring the our enemy Thai wage war, all Cambodia army prepared to defend our nation Sam Rainsy he go to Veit boder, it clearly mean that KEEP VEIT away from helping KHMer if Thai going to attack Khmer, We clearly, clearly, and clearly see Rainsy absulutely wrong, why not do it early or later but not durring Thai waging war agaist us. In war they wine the mind, mind, mind first, they fight our allians first and then they separete or divided our peopl or make us dis- united They make people Hate, Hate,and Hate their own leader or another words (leader HUN sen sould or must to, or have to surrounded with love and unity with people of all groung bottom to upper, all people not only love our leader but dare sacrify our life to die without regrete to win wars or to be stronger that what it take to survive), and kill the leader and next to fight five cities. Now we clearly see that Enermy Thai always, always and alway, using dirty trick to divide and make Khmer weaker, weaker , and weaker(creat advantage opportunity to attack) some Khmers are traped in that trick. We Hated HUn sen our leader, he is not 100 percent perfect, but he bring united,peace, democracy, and build more than 20000 schools, that produce 460,000 studen ayear, ten years it will be 4600,000 smarter students, what else leader should do?
Stop the (Ghost) those ghost are : hatred, divide, separete and anger, among Khmer any, any, and any Khmer.
Many thanks and best Regards to Khmerrization
I commend the Cambodian government for being tough with these Thai thugs who think they can do whatever they want inside Khmer territory. Many Cambodians have been killed like dogs by Thai soldiers for mistakenly entering Thai territory because they don't know where the border line lies. These Thais are very lucky that Cambodian soldiers didn't kill them.
8:13 AM, I am only a contributor to Ki-Media blog. I have been given a privilege by Ki-Media to post at their website, therefore I have to respect their editorial policy. I have posted your article at Ki-Media in the past. However, this one I leave the decision to Ki-Media whether to publish it or not. I have emailed your comment to them. So the decision whether to post it or not is up to them. Thank for your contributions. Good luck and happy new year.
8:13 AM, you're sounding like Youn or Khmer that had been brainwashed to become Youn. To me, the greater threat to Cambodia is Thailand, however; the GREATEST threat to Cambodia is Vietnam. Thailand may have been childishly playing political games with Cambodia since the issue of Preah Vihear, but how much did we actually lose to Thailand and Vietnam as far as territory since that Preah Vihear fiasco? According to Hun Sen, Cambodia didn't lose a centimeter of land to Thailand, but he didn't mention how much total kilometers Cambodia lost to Vietnam. This lost was not through war but through Hanoi political influencing Hun Sen to give up those lands. Vietnam may appear as a good neighbor to Cambodia only in the eyes of the international, but secretly, she's robbing and stealing off Cambodia.
When SRP opposition party lead by Sam Rainsy and his members stepped in to resolve this issue because of the number of complaints from Khmer farmers who losing their lands to Vietnamese encroachment, those SRP members were labeled as traitors and were stopped by Cambodian authority and Vietnamese border police. If you're Khmer, what are you seeing in this picture? Now why isn't Hun Sen all up in arms and rallying Khmer and his troops to defend against the Vietnamese border police who threaten to arrest or shoot those SRP members if they crossed those border posts which were illegally placed by Vietnamese authority? If and when there is war between Cambodia and Thailand, don't expect Vietnam to help Cambodia the way we all think. If Vietnam helped, Cambodia will only owe more to Vietnam. Does Vietnamese invasion in 1979 remind us of anything? Cambodia may lost some lands now to Vietnam, but just wait until next time, Cambodia might lose everything. The conflict between Thailand and Cambodia is actually a good thing for Vietnam. So don't ever think Hun Sen and Hanoi is a good thing for Cambodia and Vietnam. Vietnam will poke here and there to stir up opportunity in the name of its ambition of Nam Tien(southward expansion).
