Merci khmerization de publier , ces évènements !
Les siems sont des lâches !
Après l'usage des bombes à fragmentation , maintenant des gaz inertes .Ils faut qu'on fasse attention à ces agresseurs ! pour eux tous les moyens sont bons !
Les khmers à l'étranger doivent organiser une grande manifestation , en Europe ( Paris par ex.) ,aux Etats-Unis ...et dans les autres grands villes pour sensibiliser l'opinion international .
Je participe à des souffrances de nos compatriotes à la frontière !

If the Thai frontline troops lost control of their position, the Cambodian troops should step up their attack and take control over the positions that ah Thai lost. Cambodian troops should carry camera with them and record all the dead Thai soldiers for proof so the world can see. Don't let the Thai retrieve the dead soldier bodies because Thailand never tell the truth to the world. Making claim without proof no one will believe you.

“We completely rejected the rumors and reports that 11 Khmer commanders asked to negotiate with Thailand, and no military commander died at the border areas during the fighting, Phay Siphan, spokesman said.

“The rumor is Thai intention to spoil the information,” he stresses.
