Extremist Vera Somkvamkid gives Abhisit’s 24 hours ultimatum

Extremist Vera Somkvamkid

The yellow-shirt Network of Thai Patriots hasdemanded the government push Cambodian people out of the disputed area aroundPreah Vihear temple within 24 hours and immediately revoke the border memorandum of understanding signed in 2000 and the Joint Survey and Demarcation of Land Boundary accord signed in 2003.

Chaiwat Sinsuwong and Veera Somkwamkid, co-leaders of the yellow-shirt civil network, led a group of about 50 demonstrators to Government House on Wednesday to submit a complaint to Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva. The complaint was received by a Government House official.

“The government must quickly revoke all the Thai-Cambodian agreements that put Thailand at a disadvantage, expel the Cambodians from the Thai territory and fulfil former prime minister Sarit Thanarat’s desire to retain  ownership of Preah Vihear temple,” Mr Chaiwat said.

The network had pressed the government to follow its demand on Tuesday, but the government deceived  the public by saying it needed more time to solve the border issue, he said.

He said the border demarcation was unclear and at odds with the natural watershed.

“The network now demands the government drive the Cambodians away from the Thai border within 24 hours and cancel all agreements with Cambodia,” he said.

NOTE: I have previously  posted on “Abhisit’s dilemma” and now  what is Abhisit going to do now? War?Dream on you psychopath Vera Somvamkid!

Abhishit’s dilemma

The Son Of The Khmer Empire

Abhisit

The results of the General Border Committees’ meetings in 2008 and 2009 are now postponed to be debated and endorsed by the Siamese parliament again over the controversy of the MoU among the members of parliament.

Article 190 of the Constitution requires the ministry to submit any negotiation framework, which could lead to changes of borders or territory, so they are approved by Parliament.

The JBC was set up in accordance with a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed with Cambodia in 2000 to survey and demarcate the boundary line with officials from the neighbouring country.

Thai nationalists and some senators want the government to revoke the 2000 MoU because they fear losing territory to Cambodia, as the document recognises a French map that suggests areas adjacent to Preah Vihear temple on the border belong to Cambodia.

NOTE: If Hun Sen stands firm with what he said then Abhishit will be pushed to his dilemma:

• If Abhisit  doesn’t accept the 2000 MoU or if he revokes it as demanded by PAD and other Thai extremists, his govt’s protest against Cambodia must have been completely viewed as irrational, aggressive, unacceptable, groundless, illegitimate, and insincere. Then, Thailand’s objection absolutely would not be listened to and this would allow Cambodia to fulfill her  full rights as the owner according to the verdict of ICJ 1962 without objection which Thailand would forever LOSE  a chance to challenge Cambodia in the future over the claim for Prasat Preah Vihear and its surroundings to satisfy their pride.
