Fighting broke out in Poipet between Khmer and Thai troops?


On reports which need to be confirmed regarding clashes at the Cambodian border district of Poi Pet, opposite Aranyaprathet, Mr Abhisit said he was only informed of heavy reinforcements in the area and would prefer the military and concerned units either confirm or deny it, as the Thai government’s policy is clear that the country would not invade others and that what it had done was to protect its sovereignty.

PM: Thailand welcomes ASEAN to help facilitate bilateral talks between Thailand and Cambodia

NAKHON PATHOM, Feb 12 -- Thailand welcomes any assistance to be given by members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in facilitating a border dispute settlement with Cambodia bilaterally, said Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva on Saturday.

Reacting to press reports quoting senior ASEAN officials as confirming that Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa, also ASEAN chairman, has proposed a meeting between Thai and Cambodian foreign ministers in Jakarta to find a solution to the border disputes which had caused renewed clashes between soldiers of the two countries late last week, Mr Abhisit said Thailand has no problem if Indonesia or other ASEAN members wanted to play a role in facilitating the meeting between Thailand and Cambodia.

The reports said the meeting was proposed to be held on February 22.

Cambodia, Indonesia and Thailand along with Brunei, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore and Vietnam are ASEAN members.

Mr Abhisit, however, stressed that all eyes are now focusing on the United Nations Security Council meeting due to be held in New York on Monday in which Thai Foreign Affairs Minister Kasit Piromya would participate and the border problem should become more clear.

Cambodian Foreign Minister Hor Namhong and Mr Natalegawa are also expected to attend a closed door meeting.

Mr Abhisit said he expected Asda Jayanama, chief of the Thai-Cambodian Joint commission on Demarcation for Land Boundary (JBC), would brief Mr Kasit on the outcome of his meeting with UNESCO director in Paris while the minister is on his way to New York.

The prime minister said he hoped that UNESCO would obtain a clearer picture and also help ease tension.

The International Court of Justice in 1962 ruled that the 11th century Preah Vihear temple belongs to Phnom Penh. UNESCO named it a World Heritage site in 2008 after Cambodia had applied for the status. The country submitted a management plan for the temple to UNESCO’s World Heritage Commission in 2010, which deferred a decision until this year.

On reports which need to be confirmed regarding clashes at the Cambodian border district of Poi Pet, opposite Aranyaprathet, Mr Abhisit said he was only informed of heavy reinforcements in the area and would prefer the military and concerned units either confirm or deny it, as the Thai government’s policy is clear that the country would not invade others and that what it had done was to protect its sovereignty.

Territorial dispute of 4.xxkm2 land with Thailand is a very small issue. In fact, it is no issue of such dispute. In fact, it is about business dealing that has something to do with Thaksin and HunSen on tourist business development in Preah Vihea area.

Thai groups (many Thai business groups including Abhisit, Yellow and Red Shirts) are for business dealing with Hun Sen. But the deal does not go through yet because some technical problems. Therefore, territorial dispute is just a cover up for both Bangkok and Phnom Penh regimes.

What happened last week was an additional feature to this cover up. Hun Sen felt he need to promote his son, Hun Manet, to top leadership. He let Manet take over command of troops at Preah Vihea, after Manet was appointed Deputy Army Chief and becoming a Major General.

Manet holds several positions. In addition to his job as a member of the NA, he is also the Commander of Anti-Terrorist Unit, Deputy Commander of Bodyguard Unit, and Deputy Commander of the Army. BUT HE DOES NOT HAVE MUCH CONTROL OF THE TROOPS!!!

Manet, at Preah Vihea area, could not get things done because lacking of effective control of troops. He therefore asked for bodyguards to come to border. Those bodyguards are the ones who did the shooting at the border last week.

The exchange of fire last week developed into new issue. Hun Sen did not expect Thai military to return fire with heavy cannons. It was first time that 155mm was used in several rounds that destroying a number of Cambodian tanks, APCs and BM-21 Multiple Rocket trucks, sending shock wave to the abusive corrupt bodyguards. There is unknown number of death and wounded. Manet was silenced and since then his voice is not heard on military radio.

The Thai military trickled Hun Sen by producing fake news about Manet get wounded. Finally, Hun Sen admitted that he has three sons in the armed forces. The Thai military is smiling at this admittance. Now Hun Sen says it is a real war.

Hun Sen was shocked at the blast on his son's "troops" and he becomes fearful of Thai power that he always thought is a weak coward one. This caused him to call on UNSC for help.

HUN SEN WANTS HE AND HIS SONS TO BE HEROES DEFENDING 4.xxkm2 of land while he gave up several thousands of square kilometers of land and sea to Vietnam, especially the approximately 10,000km2 of Khmer maritime territory (07/07/1982).

Dear Dr. Hun Sen and Ten Thousands stars Dr. Hun Manet,

Why do you and your relatives give Kos Trol, sea and lands to Vietnam? Why? and Why? Over 10 000 km2 have been given to Vitenam by Dr. Hun Sen treaty 1982. Why???

What is the difference from Khmer Rough and you, Sir?

If you are so good why do you block KI from Cambodians?

If you are so good, why do you steal all Cambodian life such as well being, health, cut down Cambodians life expectancy as well? But you and your small group are eat well, sleep well, exercise well, have oversea doctors and best medical treatment from high class private doctors from oversea. Most Cambodians that have no money, your healthcare system left Cambodians patients to die in front of your hospital. Why? Why?

If you are so good why more than 6 millions Vietnamese are living permanently in Cambodia, right now? Why, Dr. Hen Sen? And Why

Everywhere, I walk in Cambodia I see Vietnamese speak Vietnamese every where, why? Why?

Don't you and your families scare of hell for eternity?

Khmers victim of 1997 and K5, Khmer Girl Ms. Rattana Keo

PS

If Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet remove the tablet it is show they are extremely coward and his star are just joy stars given by his daddy not by patriotism. Dr. Hun Manet is very coward as his daddy they only aim to kill innocent Cambodians that all. Dr. Hun SEn and Dr. ten stars Hun Manet are very great at bullying Cambodians and killing Cambodians but cowardly toward Thai and Viet.

CPP are not just corrupted, CPP are extremely corrupt. They are even sell the country such as Kos Trol, Seas, lands, Cambodian people, Cambodian health and well being, all resources in the Cambodia…with lost count. You name it!

Seriously where is the win win policy of Dr. Hun Sen represent? The country is getting smaller and smaller and shame by Dr. Hun Sen and Dr. Hun Manet and his families, his relatives and friends.

Please do not shoot anyone here...this individual has the right to express his feeling. I do agree with this person show what. But maybe, just maybe PM Hun Sen and his gangs are fat enough by now and maybe, just maybe, he and his gangs are really TRUE to Khmer and its poor people right now. You know, if you get too fat, you will explode.
