Kasit labels Cambodian PM as bully boy, expresses suspicion Russia, India, China behind Cambodia's aggressiveness

Thai Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya (pictured) Wednesday called Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen a bully boy who launched attacks against Thailand with hope to seize control of the disputed plot near Preah Vihear Temple. (Khmerization: In 2008 Kasit called Hun Sen 'a nakleng' (gangster) and declared publicly that he wants to use Hun Sen's blood to clean his feet).

Kasit was speaking at a seminar on Thai-Cambodian relationship at Parliament held by the Senate committee on foreign affairs.

Kasit told the seminar that the conflicts between the two countries happened because the Cambodian government incited hatred among its people towards Thailand.


Kasit said the Cambodian government told its people that Thailand had been bullying Cambodia during the past 600 and 700 years.

"Cambodian people were told that Thailand has been hitting Cambodians' head throughout 600 or 700 years," Kasit said.

Kasit said Thailand should have learnt a lesson from Cambodia winning the world court's ruling related to the Preah Vihear temple.

He added that although Cambodia may seek another ruling of the world court over the disputed 4.5 kilometre plot near the temple, the problem would not end "because Cambodia is using Thailand as a political tool".

Kasit said Cambodia now aimed only at completing the world heritage registration process of the ancient Hindu temple and seeking ownership of the 4.6 square km plot.

"But he may think that the Thai government is too slow to act on the dispute because the Thai government must first win approval from Parliament before carrying out any action. He may think that the prime minister is collaborating with Parliament to drag feet on the issue," Kasit said.

"So a way to push for what he wants fast is to start a severe battle like what happened on 4 February. And he did it successfully probably with help from other countries like Russia, India and China. Then, Cambodia filed a complaint with the UN Security Council," Kasit said, adding that he will travel to explain the issue to the council on February 14.

"I am ready to defend Thailand in all venues. We should not forget that we have the US a true friend.

"Although Cambodia created perception that it was harassed by Thailand and tried to win sympathy from the International Community, Thailand would not allow Hun Sen, a bully boy, to bully Thailand," Kasit said.

"Now, we have a bully boy harassing us near our house but we are a kind-hearted adult and allow Cambodians to enter our country without the need to get visa first."

This foreign prime minister is a gangster himself. He was the one that went on ASTV and called Hun Sen name such as nakleng and wanted to use Hun Sen blood to wash his feet. Cambodia never incite its people to hate Thais but it is the other way around. Watch ASTV and you Thais are cursing at Cambodians every day.

Kasit wants the US to help to fight against Cambodia by telling the press about his suspicion on Russia, China, and India are behind Cambodia.
In fact, what the US government do is to respect the International Law only. The US does not degrade his reputation of justice and freedom. The US only respects humanity and the law.

I wonder what the American govt is thinking right now since Kasit openly announced that Thai got the support of the American govt. I wonder if the UN will cancel the meeting with Thai and Cambodia after Kasit's visit. If so, PM Hun Sen and the Cambodia people should know that the American and the UN is 100% with the Thai govt regardless of their aggressiveness and bad intention toward Cambodia. Unless Cambodia has OIL in every corner, I think the American Federal govt will reconsider.

These two are the same- gangsters. Hun Sen speaks like a gangster and Kasit, who is a Thai top diplomat, also speaks like a gangster.
