Welcome to Siam`s Termination of the 2001- MOU

With the overeaction against Cambodia, the Thai government has decided to terminate the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) 2001 with Cambodia on Cambodia-Thailand Agreement for common exploitation of hydrocarbons.

Practically, I would like to express my great pleasure upon hearing this and warmly welcome this decision of the Thai government. Why?

Because if this 2001-MOU is determinated, Cambodia will have the full rights to apply the Siamese-French treaties 1907 without obstruction. On the other hand, if the 2001-MON is still active and recognized, most of the Cambodian benefits will be lost to that of Thailand as stated by the Cambodia’s Border Committee (CBC) as follows:

STATEMENT of SAMRAINSY PARTY

Sam Rainsy, The President of Sam Rainsy Part

I am surprised to see my name associated with the name of Mr. Thaksin Shinawatra of Thailand on his appointment as an adviser to Cambodia’s government led by Mr. Hun Sen. It would never come to my mind to serve a foreign government that is at odds with my own country. All my time and resources are and will be exclusively devoted to serving and defending my sacred motherland Cambodia.

Elected representative of the people of Cambodia

Soy Sopheap: He Has Money, But Not Dignity

The Corrupt Hun Sen and Nhem Vandoeun

The news is about the who is “Responsible for NhemVandoeun“, the man who works extra at the department of public work and transportation in Phnom Penh responsible for licensing and releasing the number plates for transportation in the Capital City of Phnom Penh and was recently arrested on the alleged corruption committed with his extra job. Please read the full article in khmer at DAP.

In the news,  Soy Sopheap  proudly boasted the govt´s intolerable policy to abolish the corruption with  punishment wihout being biased with strong and strict law enforcement. The article continues to say that the case of Nhem Vandoeun will be extended to his brother, because wihout his brother´s support, Nhem Vandoeun cannot commit such a corruption which takes away millions of dollar of state´s income.

The Soy Sopheap also sensed the public´s point of views that, ” No mattter how rich Nhem Vandoeun is, he surely has no value, dignity, honor, and pride comparing to the poor-farmers“.

Is That How Hun Sen Rules the Country?

Cambodian workers at Poy Pet Border (DAP)

I just have read the news posted on DAP  today related to Hun Sen´s order to stop corruption committed by the border authority at Poy Pet International border gate efter he has just started to wake up that such an action would  suffer the Cambodian people who make their daily living at the border through carrying out goods from Thailand.

Please read the news in Khmer and think about it. Then you may come to a conlusion as follow:

Thai Arguments to Claim Khmer Preah Vihear Temple and the Surrounding Land

Extremist yellow PAD demonstration near Khmer Preah Vihear Temple

Since the conflicts have flared up between the two countries which caused by the reclaim of its right over the Preah Vihear temple and the land surroundings by Thailnd, the Thais always base their valid arguments on as the  followings:

1. The only accessible gate way to the Khmer Preah Vihear temple is made on the Thai soil. So the temple must be joint-listed.
2. To make the temple really becomes the World Heritage site, the temple must be listed with all other sunbordinates that are now exist in the Thai soil and the temple must be co-managed between Thailand and Cambodia.
3. The verdict of International Court of Justice (ICJ) in 1962 gives Cambodia only the temple, but not the surounding land.
4. The ICJ did not demarcate the border line between the two countries, so the orderline is not known and the 4.6km square is not clear to which country it belongs.
5. The Frencch made-map has a problem, because the map has its basis on the wathershed of the two countries as the borderlines, but the case of Preah Vihear temple it does not follow the wathershed at all, so Thailand must disagree with it.
6. The wathershed of the two countries has been changed gradually due to the geographical change caused by the environment, so the new agreement to redemarcate of the two countries´s borderlines must be set by the Thais to reasured its rights according to the watershed basis.
7. The map made by the France that controlled Cambodia is considered as biased and unfair. With this, Thailand must reject it.

These are the arguments that I have collected on many forums argued by the Thais. So please all beloved Cambodians voice your words  to counterargue with the Thais.  Your counterarguments will become invaluable contributions of knowledge for our compatriot to equip themselves with effetive information.

In Sodarity 

Notice: My counterargument will be posted later.

Is Cambodia a Province of Thailand or Is Thailand a Province of Cambodia?

Cambodia is not Province of Thailand

Sovannaphumi is just a name of an airport

July, 2009

By Eisel Mazard

§1.

“Suvaṇṇabhūmi” is not just the name of an airport: it has been an important part of Thai propaganda for over 100 years. Today, the myth of “Suvaṇṇabhūmi” is used to claim that all of Cambodia, Laos and even Vietnam were formerly part of Thailand, but were later “lost” in a series of wars. This article presents a series of facts about the real history of Southeast Asia. The original text was written in simplified English, intended for translation.

Many Thai people alive today heard about “Suvaṇṇabhūmi” from their grandparents, so they assume this is a very old idea. Many Thai people grew up hearing propaganda that their ancient homeland was in Yunnan (a province in China, north of Laos) –but then the message changed. Sometimes the government tells them the ancient homeland is “here” in this ancient kingdom called “Suvaṇṇabhūmi”, sometimes they say it is in Shan State (now part of Burma), sometimes in Southern China or even further north than China, in Mongolia. Sometimes the government tells them to hate the Burmese, sometimes the Chinese, sometimes Cambodians. They told their people to hate and fear Communists, but (at the same time) they supported the Khmer Rouge. The result is that Thai people are genuinely confused about their own history.

Opinion: Bangkok Post Needs a Reality Check

In view of Siam quarrel over Cambodia rights to speak for and defend its property, apparently Bangkok Post misspoke and mischaracterized Khmer nation. Two wrongs can’t be right.

I agree with Bangkok Post and find Hun Sen words are intolerable and unnecessary in dealing with so called modern Siam country. As human endowed with rights to express true feeling, Hun Sen appears to speak his mind in full graphic. But Hun Sen wasn’t highly educated and rooted out from noble clans.

Translated from Khmer by Socheata

PM Hun Xen praised General Pol Saroeun, the RCAF chief of staff, for tearing up the map unilateral drawn by Thailand in the past. During a speech given at the inauguration of the new building for the ministry of Tourism on Monday, Hun Xen said that he personally praised General Pol Saroeun who took the map unilaterally drawn up by Thailand and tore it down at the negotiation table. Hun Xen said: “I praised him, let him tear up any map that is not internationally recognized. If the Thai PM put this map in front of me, I will tear it down in front of the Thai PM also.” Hun Xen indicated that he does not allow any Cambodian official to negotiate based in Thailand’s unilateral map, and he said that any negotiation should be based on maps left over from France.

Another Siamese Thieft: Veera Somkwamkid vows to uphold Thai sovereignty over disputed aera

By The Nation
Published on September 21, 2009

Yellow-shirt activist Veera Somkwamkid yesterday vowed to uphold Thai sovereignty over 4.6 square kilometres of terrain near Preah Vihear Temple claimed by Cambodia. Veera also threatened to take legal action against officials condoning the encroachment

Veera also threatened to take legal action against officials condoning the encroachment.

Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said his government was trying to resolve border problems via the legal process and not force.

Former premier Thaksin Shinawatra said on Twitter that Preah Vihear actually does belong to Cambodia by a decision of the International Court of Justice.

Thaksin has the right thinking related to Preah Vihear issue. I think all  of Thai people should listen to him for the sake of peace and development in the region.

Prets of the Year

It is supprising for me today that I got the new ideas from our people in the country after I have made some calls to greet and wish some relatives and friends in our motherland on this auspecious occassion of Bon Pjum Ben.

Who Will Be Struck by Lightning?

Cambodian people were shot, wounded and burned alive by Siam brutal soldiers after they entered Thailand for logging for their survival because of poverty.  The news really shocks my heart.

If we remember this month about the curse of the gangster leader Hun Sen who warned his critics  that they would be struck by lightning if they dared to suggest his leadership was plunging the country into poverty. 

“[They] say Cambodia is getting poorer and poorer, but aren’t they
afraid of being struck by lightning?” he said and adding that, “If you dare to say it and be struck by lightning, go ahead.”

Hun Sen´s Son Really Gets Scholarship?

 

It is another cheating news posted by Dap News which aimed to boost Hun Sen´s credit by his sycophant – Soy Sopheap. I think Hun Sen´s son ís not that smart. I mean he is not recieving a scholarship from the USA military university, but instead he gets the FS -Family Scholarship, to study at that university. Well, Hun Sen can send his sons or daughters to study anywhere on earth if he wants, as we know about his richness.  

Where Does Bun Rany Get the Money From?

It is not new about the news of high ranking Cambodian leaders or Chhumteav handing out gifts or alm to poor people or soldiers.

This one seems interesting like before but so unusual and I can´t help writing to enlight it to the public.

Well, the news is posted on the Deam Ampil News today about  “Chhum Teav Bun Rany Hun Sen to donate 7000 mosquito nets and 130000 rain coats to Cambodian soldiers stationing at Preah Vihear and at region 4.

Gasoline Price in Cambodia is Cheaper Than in France: Stupid Hun Sen

It is laughable to listen to the news on RFA about what Hun Sen said on gasoline price comparing the gasoline price between Cambodia and France. He said that Cambodia really has a cheaper gasoline price than that of France. In Cambodia, a litter of gasoline cost only $ 1, whearas in France it costs from $1.70 to $1.80.  With this, Hun Sen lauded his  admiration to the local gasoline companies which are able to maintain the stable price for the market, claiming as better than those of foriegner companies.  

Who Rules Thailand?

As the border conflicts with Cambodia continue, the official meetings have been conducted many times between the  two countries´s top leaders ranging from top national leaders to regional leaders, head of the exeutive body, head of the legislative body, and local commanders, in order to peacify the border conflicts, however, all of the meetings have become just a political  show-off and completely a waste of time. Why?

Tim Sakhorn in Sweden

Former Ven. Tim Sakhorn arrived in Sweden in 3 July 2009 at 3pm at Örnsköldsvik airport. He now lives in Örnsköldsvik city.  He feels homesick and of course the weather is still cold even though it is summer. It is hard for him to stand with such a cold weather in Sweden. Our Khmer people here welcomed his arrival and everyone is happy to see him.  He is not alone here.
