rbu Cambodia Can Claim Its Former Territories

CAMBODIA CAN CLAIM FORMER KHMER TERRITORIES IN THAILAND AND VIETNAM ONLY IF ...

International Attorney Ek Savatthey, living in Australia, commented on Radio Australia broadcasting October 5, 2013 that the former Khmer territories [in northeastern Thailand and Kampuchea Krom] now respectively occupied by Thai and Vietnamese governments can be claimed back as parts of Cambodia – the initial owners of the areas above – only if Khmer leaders proclaim that Cambodia does still claim them and won't give up the claiming rights when the people of Khmer origin in those territories explicitly express their strong wish for the territorial re-annexation to Cambodia.

The lawyer did recall, to his vivid memory, that former King Norodom Sihanouk of Cambodia stated clearly in his response to Thai government's questions before his repatriation to Cambodia after his decades-long' absence from his fatherland that: "Preah Vihear Temple is left for Cambodia to decide (sic)" He said this replying to Thai questions of them what his view on Preah Vihear temple issues.

The lawyer also reiterated His Late Majesty Sihanouk's stance about Kampuchea Krom territories that He and His Cambodia never give up the rights as legitimate owner of the territories.

God bless you and justice-and-peace-loving people for reading this article.

You can see Koh Tral, the biggest island on the map attached herewith -- (Koh [= Island] + Tral [= Navel] is its initial and historical Khmer name meaning the Island of Navel and called Phu Quóc by Vietnam.) Twenty-one Khmer provinces -- Koh Tral, included -- now in Southern parts of vertebra-shaped Vietnam since prehistoric times had been territories of the Great Khmer/Cambodian Empire which the present Kingdom of Cambodia is heir, The French Protectorate did annex them to Vietnam on June 4th, 1949. Koh Tral is just some twelve kilometers (or 7 miles) off the coast of Cambodia and 45 km (some 30 miles) from the coast of Kampuchea Krom (= Netherlands of Cambodia), now in Vietnam.

Vietnam with its national and historical cradle in the far north invaded and swallowed the Kingdom of Champa centuries ago to be now with no name on the world maps and continued its annexation of Kampuchea Krom (Khmer/Cambodian territories with historic and cultural heritage ...) just after WW II. Nowadays, about 15 millions of Khmer native people live there.
