Cambodian commaners claimed that Thai troops continue to attack Cambodian troops everyday, despite meeting and reaching a ceasefire agreement on a daily basis.

Cambodian troops claimed that as on Sunday 1st May, at 9pm Thai troops have thrown hand grenades at Cambodian troops and shelled Cambodian positions at Ta Krabey temple, but the Cambodian side had shown the utmost restraint and did not respond.

Cambodian commanders claimed that 9pm on Sunday, Thai troops began throwing hand grenades and shelling the Cambodian positions despite a ceasefire agreement reached between Cambodian and Thai commanders in the area. The Cambodian commanders, however, said that Cambodian troops did not fight back as they don't want to fall into Thai trap and provocation.

CEN reported that both Cambodian and Thai commanders had met in Ta Krabey and Thmor Daun areas on Sunday 1st May and had reached a ceasefire agreement. Both sides had agreed to meet again today, Monday 2nd May.

According to the report, both side had agreed to station two unarmed soldiers at Ta Moan Thom temple in order to liaise between the two sides to avoid further armed clashes. Similar agreement was reached during talk at Thmor Daun. The report further said that a similar meeting will be held today at Ta Krabey temple with a view to reach the same agreement as in Ta Moan Thom temple as Thai troops in the area continue to attack Cambodian troops despite there was no response from the Cambodian side.

The Cambodian side had also accused Thai troops of deliberate targetting the temples, causing damages to the two temples, notably the Ta Krabey temple where the temple tower has reportedly collapsed after being hit by Thai rockets.

Thanks for the nice suggestions, what you do not know is Khmer soldiers fight without food to eat, the CPP said it's the job of the people to raise money through donations to buy for the soldiers.

Nobody is talking about cold blood toward anybody. It's just the war that is exposing the flaws, corruptions and cold blood in everything about the CPP in Cambodia.

CPP is making progress. It takes a little time. There are things that can not be done as fast as one would like. Premier Hun Sen has a clear vision for the country. It will be a prosperous one. CPP's philosophy is a toad's movement, little by little we'll get there. This war with Thailand make Premier Hun Sen as a legend. He'll make Cambodia as a kingdom once again.

Cambodian troops are in high moral, well fed, and the injures are well medically treated. This is a war every Cambodian and all of the branch of government support. It would be the last thing for the Cambodian troops to go hungry or lack of support. I don't know whose fucking idea it was to say that Cambodian troops have no food to eat to have strength to fight. What a bunch of balone. Food supply are being donated to the Cambodian military by the people as a symbolic gesture of support for the troops. I bet if people can donate guns, grenades, or RPG, one or two dumbass are going to say that Cambodian military lack guns, grenades, or RPG? Don't try to make everything nagative of Cambodia. Those people generalize too much.

Fighting at the boarder will only kill Khmers on both side. Khmer Surin needs to join force with Khmer's forces in order not to get kill by Khmer on the other side. The fighting needs to move toward Bangkok in order not to kill Khmer in Surin and at the boarder. If this goes on, there will less Khmer and Thai can take Cambodia easily.

The mission statement was created during the 1975s, that killed nearly two millions people and they used it again which is slowing terrorizing and poisoning the whole populations of Cambodia except the viet illegal settlers.

You have been a sleep, three Khmer Surin were caught in Thailand buying food for the Khmer soldiers. It's clearly showed that they fight without food and has been relying on food from Thailand to survive.

1:32, how stupid are you? You believe in Bangcock post? If you do you are one stupid Khmer. Just because someone get food across the border doesn't mean they don't have anything to eat.

It is not about the shortage of food, but it is Bout Khmer surin' heart. They still have Khmer blood.

Cambodia must get serious, strengthen Cambodian military and looks after our soldiers very well. If our soldiers are well-fed and well-paid, they will have high morale and are willing to sacrifice their life to protect our territory. If they have low morale, because their commanders are corrupt band never come to the frontline, our soldiers will not fight hard. Thai soldiers are not brave, they are stronger because they are bigger in numbers and have more modern weapons and planes and tanks to support them from the air and from behind. Without these sophisticated weapons, Thai soldiers will never defeat Cambodian soldiers, who are battle-hardened and very experienced.
