BANGKOK, 1 June 2011 – The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has ensured that the Thai legal team did the best to elaborate with the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on the Preah Vihear Temple dispute after Cambodia sought an interpretation of the ICJ’s 1962 ruling on the temple case.

According to Secretary to the Foreign Minister Chavanond Intarakomalyasut, the Thai delegation, led by Thai Ambassador to the Netherlands Virachai Plasai, told the ICJ that Cambodia has hidden agenda in this temple row, especially in regard to Thai-Cambodian border skirmishes.

As for the Cambodian request asking the ICJ to issue a temporary injunction ordering Thailand to withdraw troops from the disputed zone while the verdict interpretation is in process, the Thai side insisted that the ICJ has no authority to do so, and the request should be dropped.

The result of the request will be concluded in the next three to four weeks. For the time being, both Thailand and Cambodia must present written information about detailed losses from border clashes such as fatalities and evacuation plans, to the ICJ within 18.00 hrs of 7 June 2011.

The ICJ then will forward the submitted information to both conflicting countries for acknowledgement, after which it will allow both sides to make objections in writing and return clarifications within 18.00 hrs of 14 June 2011. The ICJ then will issue the date to read the court’s verdict which will be informed via the Thai embassy.

After elaborating the details, Mr Chavanond stressed that the Thai delegation has performed the best in explaining the temple row with the ICJ. He believed that Cambodia will not be able to take any further action once the ICJ has pronounced the verdict.

Thailand claimed how kind and how supportive toward Cambodia is baseless since the history recorded Thailand only oppose Cambodia annex Cambodia land by force killing innocent Cambodian refugees in the last 3 decades Thailand at least killed 10,000 Cambodian that what Thailand claiming helping Cambodia is totally wrong and just the vice versa .

What did Thai support Cambodia lately is encroaching Cambodian land and oppose Cambodia in the register Preah Vihear temple as the world heritage, Thailand bullying days are numbers in the 21th century and it not playing well, openly claim something that not belong to them at the first place only the shameless people that able to do that what is Thailand do right now .

The current Thai government put the brave face is to hide criminal act for the future government of Thailand won't be able to charge them in the article of dragging Thailand into war and losing territory , all the current Abhisit gov may spend their twilight years in the cages .
