A war of words on Cambodian-Vietnamese border issues

A senior official from the Council of Ministers' Press and Quick Reaction Unit has on Thursday dismissed the allegations by the opposition Sam Rainsy Party and the Cambodian Watchdog Council which said that a number of border posts along the Cambodian-Vietnamese borders were planted inside Cambodian territory.

A delegation of the Cambodian Watchdog Council led by Mr. Rong Chhun alleged that on their visit to the border posts in Memot district in Kampong Cham province on 5th December, they have witnessed a number of border posts, including post Nos. 108 and 109, have been planted at least 200 metres deep inside Khmer territory. And 18 MPs from Sam Rainsy Party, who visited the area on 14th December, also said that many border posts in the area were planted inside Khmer territory. They claimed that many Vietnamese police had entered Cambodian territory to stop them from visiting border post no. 103.

Mr. Tith Sothea (pictured), spokesman for the Press and Quick Reaction Unit, said the reason the Vietnamese police entered Cambodian territory to stop the opposition MPs from reaching border post No. 103 was because they were afraid that those MPs might uproot the border post. He said in the the past, MPs from the opposition party, including party leader Sam Rainsy, had uprooted border post No 184 in Chantrea district in Svay province on 25th October 2009 of which Mr. Sam Rainsy was sentenced in absentia to 12 years imprisonment. He said the opposition MPs and Mr. Rong Chhun have no expertise on border affairs and therefore their visits were just populist actions for political gains.

We are not talking about mutual agreement or investment by private companies. We are talk about the problem with border posts. This is what the article is all about. Let not sway out line. There are differences between investment and encroachment. We must not let that confuse ourself.
