Thai border patrol police and Cambodian soldiers negotiate over farmland in Sa Kaeo province, 11 June 2015.
SA KAEO — A small-scale territory dispute broke out along the Thai-Cambodian border today over a plot of land that currently belongs to a Thai farmer.
The 61-year-old rice farmer, Subin Thiangsan, said Cambodian soldiers arrived on her fields in Sa Kaeo province today and claimed the land is Cambodian territory.
A group of Thai officials and Border Patrol Police later arrived and negotiated with the Cambodian troops. Both sides were unarmed.
Pol.Col. Rerk Panitcharoen, a local commander of the Thai Border Patrol Police, said he instructed Subin to stop working on her plot of land for one week while the two sides negotiate a solution.
Suhari Channok, a local administrator, told reporters that Cambodian authorities have been installing new border markings in recent months, and have been encroaching deeper into Khok Soong district, which borders Cambodia.
He said a barbed wire fence had been placed near the border by Thai authorities many years ago, but does mark the exact border, and was only constructed to prevent illegal border crossings.
“So, as days go by, the Cambodians have claimed that the area beyond the barbed wire is their own territory,” Suhari said, adding that some Cambodians had entered Subin’s farmland and tried to plant rice in her fields.

Mrs Subin Thiangsan may had documents to prove that she legal owner but those documents were drawn up by Siam local official ILLEGALLY STEALING CAMBODIA TERRITORIES. As always Khmer armed forces do not dare to intrude into Siam territories. Khmer armed forces most of the times CAN'T even defend Cambodia territories let along intrude into Thailand. Lol.
Just look at the cases around Prasat Preah Vihear & Prasat Ta Moan and Prasat Ta Krabey. Siam troops still occupied those areas along side Khmer troops. ICJ court ruled November 2011 that areas immediately surrounding Preah Vihear is Cambodia territories and ordered ALL Siam to leave. Up until today Siam thieves troop still there. Lol. These Siam farmers should asked Thai governments to give them compensations land ON THAI TERRITORIES NOT CAMBODIA LAND IDIOTS.
This is why a real independent nation MUST have a strong good government. A strong government lead to a strong armed forces. Cambodia really needed to cut down corruptions and foreign influenced
to start rebuild our armed forces into a strong, professional equips for defensive capabilities. Every nation on Earth needed an adequate military to deterred others from violating her territories. Cambodia has the rights as any others to defend herself.
