In 1962, the International Court of Justice awarded the temple and the land it occupies to Cambodia. The decision still rankles many Thais even though the temple is Cambodian, sharing the Hindu-influenced architectural style of the more famous Angkor complex in northwestern Cambodia.
Could any of you briefly explain what is the nature of this dispute? Another national pride? Why would the Thai military deployed its troop ahead of any political resolution?
Doesn’t look like anybody is giving in? Seemed like both side just mass their soldier near the border.
I simply can’t imagine Asean is going to solve this one when they are still trying to get Myanmar issue resolved?
