Kasit: Cambodian-Thai conflict should be kept within the ASEAN family

Anonymous said...

Shame on Kasit Piromya. He feels the trouble between Cambodia and Thailand should be kept within ASEAN family? Then why the hell doesn't he do his part and let Thailand resolves its issue with ASEAN? All along Thailand wants to go BILATERAL, meaning only within Cambodia and Thailand, no third party is allowed to get involved. Then during this ASEAN meeting, he said to keep the problem within the Asean family. What a slippery and sliding snake, always trying to find an escape route. Thailand is constantly changing its message and flip flopping to make itself look good and clean. If Thailand wanted to deal with this conflict within the ASEAN family, well.. come on, what does Thailand have to be concerned about? Let the Indonesian observers come in at wherever they wanted to go, so they can see for themselves who is stirring up the fight. Since Thailand has always accused Cambodia of starting the fight first, then let outsiders see it with their own eyes.

ASEAN is a spineless body of organization that is indecisive and unorganized. When there is problem, they turn and look the other way. ASEAN wants to promote peace and unity but choose to do little or nothing in the face of conflict within its members. This is the test of unity, obviously ASEAN had failed. If ASEAN clearly stood by its own principles, who cares if Thailand allowed Indonesian observers or not, just come in anyway for the sake of creating peace and unity. ASEAN should create the ASEAN peace keeping forces made up of member states. When problem is getting hot in anywhere within the region of ASEAN, they would be immediately deployed as peace-keepers. There is no such thing as unity and strong ASEAN when there is a member state like Thailand who ignores the rules and principles of the organization. Thailand is acting as though it doesn't have to listen to anyone. Its arrogance is the weakest link of ASEAN. And for this reason, Thailand is unwilling to have peace and unity amongst the ASEAN member states.
