Good that your general Prayuth give priority to your nation and its people. We Cambodians know that every deal will benefit Hun Sen and his cronies only, while most Thais should know that your fugitive and his friends will be the only ones benefitting on your side.

where is the 4.6 square kilometers?. Mr Prayuth must meant the one that legally in side the Cambodian territory. check the map 1:200000. ANNEX I. please don't make an issue any more worse than the previous administration. I just hope Mr. Prayuth tries not to make thing complicate for YingLuck's government, because he is a PAD general. both Thailand and Cambodia rest assure on the ICJ clarification. just wait patiently not being rushed that day will come.

I think the best thing the MSM could do for the country is to refuse to print a single article coming directly from any military leader. Only the government should have a say and decision-making power.

The more the military is allowed so time attention the more they claim for themselves. It is time to remind them they are here to serve the people, not rule over them.
