Thank you for you previous posts. Reading them, I decided to drive our car from Bangkok to Preah Vihear, Koh Ker, Siem Reap and Battambang via Chong Jom and exited at Pailin-Ban Pakard. All went as smooth as silk for the car which was not even a SUV or 4X4, but the roads on that itinerary were all in very good condition. Immigration/Customs at both points very easy. We knew we would be traveling without insurance but that did not stop us and we enjoyed the trip very much.
Only sad part is that Thai people as of early December were still not allowed to go to Preah Vihear temple, but we had a plan B to visit Koh Ker.
This was before the meeting between the two Prime Ministers in mid-December. Hope this will change.
