Thursday to prevent more fighting as their governments sought to quell tensions
after a border row boiled over into a deadly shoot-out.
THE THAI WHO USED TO CONQUER CAMBODIA AFTER 1431 , ARE MUCH MORE THAI CHINESE
than Siamese with Buddhist culture.

>the Cambodian people.
It's so sad . Where are the Khmer to defend their own interests ?
1. Siam in 1431-1863.After Jayavarman VII's death, Kambuja entered a long
period of decline that led to its eventual disintegration.
The Thai (from China )were a growing menace on the empire's western borders..
There were few Chinese in that period.
2. Thailand from 1863-2008 has over 6 millions Thai Chineses that have total
control over the Thai social fabric.
What has happened to the original Siam ?
The composition of the Siam population has changed in the advantages of the
Thai Chinese.

CAMBODIA TODAY IS UNDER TOTAL CONTROLE OF VIETNAM .
CAMBODIA : Historical Background
The Time of Greatness, A.D. 802-1431
Period of Decline, 1431-1863
The French Protectorate, 1863-1954
The Japanese Occupation, 1941-45
The First Indochina War, 1945-54
The Second Indochina War, 1954-75
Military Developments Under the Khmer Rouge
Khmer Rouge Armed Forces
Khmer-Vietnamese Border Tensions
Vietnamese Invasion of Cambodia
CAUSES OF DELCINE :
After Jayavarman VII's death, Kambuja entered a long period of decline that led
to its eventual disintegration.
A. The Thai were a growing menace on the empire's western borders.
B. The spread of Theravada Buddhism, which came to Kambuja from Sri Lanka by
way of the Mon kingdoms, challenged the royal Hindu and Mahayana Buddhist
cults.
Preaching austerity and the salvation of the individual through his or own her
efforts, Theravada Buddhism did not lend doctrinal support to a society ruled
by an opulent royal establishment maintained through the virtual slavery of the
masses. (from Library of Congress Country Studies)

Border dispute may hurt trade: Cambodian official
www.chinaview.cn 2008-10-16 11:53:38
PHNOM PENH, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) -- With violence erupting on the
Cambodia-Thai border, government officials and investors warned that the
dispute could affect bilateral trade, tourism and investment between the
two countries, the Phnom Penh Post reported Thursday.
"Imports of Thai goods have declined lately because many Thai
business people fear they will not be able to collect payment from
Cambodian whole sellers should the situation on the border deteriorate,"
Mao Thora, secretary of state at the Cambodian Ministry of Commerce, was
quoted by the Phnom Penh Post as saying.
Kong Bunly, the trade director for Banteay Meanchey province, said
cross-border with Thailand has remained largely unaffected by the
dispute over territory around Preah Vihear, but that Thai tourists have
stopped crossing into Cambodia.
Meanwhile, an employee at the Thai Plastic Company who asked not to
be identified said she is concerned that any armed confrontation between
the two countries could affect her company.
"I'm really worried about this because Cambodian people could stop
buying Thai products if fighting breaks out," she told the Post.
"This crisis absolutely impacts Thai business in Cambodia and
Cambodian employees employed by Thai companies," she said, adding that
her manager had already returned to Thailand because of the border crisis.
Two Cambodian soldiers were killed and several Cambodian and Thai
troops were wounded during Wednesday's gunfire exchange between the two
neighbors.
