openly sharing the audio conversation with Paetongtarn. This incident has already had major political repercussions,

Paetongtarn's severe ethical breaches concerning the Thai-Cambodian border dispute.

 

so...  they shoud give Hun Sen a medal for the expose !

I would agree... Everyone is always so afraid to go against the Thaksin family. It is about time someone spilled the beans on them all... I hope they issue a warrant and push Hun Sen to release the details of more damning evidence against the Thaksins. I think making charges is about the stupidest thing Thailand has ever done knowing Hun Sen has already threatened to release more evidence against the Thaksin family. They are pushing the limit in this one.

  • Well, Hun Sen is guilty of being a Khmer Rouge district commander and should be in jail for his misdeeds.

  • Crazy.   Interpol will never touch this case.

I'm not so sure about that. My ex-wife was a real piece of work.

Uh, he's Cambodian. I don't think Thai police have jurisdiction there.

 

Although I think this guy should have been executed for war crimes decades ago.

"Should there be sufficient grounds, an arrest warrant will be issued, and Interpol notified to issue a Red Notice," stupid childish comment...he was not in Thailand, so broke no Thai laws... Also, who actually leaked to conversation... 

They should persue the Red Bull guy with such eagerness.

Maj. Gen. Siriwat explained, "The Attorney General will now assess whether the evidence warrants further legal action. Should there be sufficient grounds, an arrest warrant will be issued, and Interpol notified to issue a Red Notice."

Dear Interpol,

We would like you to enter Cambodia, arrest Hun Sen, the Prime Minister of the sovereign nation of Cambodia, and ship him back to Thailand to stand trial on charges of breaching Thailand's "national security" for disclosing a telephone call made to Thailand's then PM, Paetongtarn Shinawatra.

We expect Interpol to get on this chop-chop.

Signed, 
Thailand

Dear Thailand,

We'd like to inform you that Cambodia is not a vassal-state of Thailand and as such, Thailand has no jurisdiction over the sovereign state of Cambodia.  Like your Red Notice for the heir of powerful billionaires which Interpol ignores, we will be ignoring your Red Notice for the arrest of Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen as well.  We suggest that if you have further issues with Cambodia to take them up with representatives of the United Nations. 

Signed,
Interpol

He's head of a state for another nation

President of the Senate of Cambodia - not Head of State
Monineath is the fourth Monarch of Cambodia, thus Head of State.

Thai police are set to submit a case against Cambodian leader Hun Sen to the Attorney-General's Office on Monday.

Thailand has no jurisdiction over a Cambodia's President of the Senate or Monarch any more than does Cambodia have jurisdiction over Thailand's President of the National Assembly or its Monarch. 

Thai police are acting very unaware what national sovereignty is as they seemingly attempt to protect Thailand's sovereignty.

 
 

To protect your national security how about asking your leaders not to bad mouth your own comrades to foreign leaders. 

The flour smuggler was immune because his crimes were not committed in Thailand.

Did Hun Sen visit Thailand to release the recorded phone call ?

Doesn’t seem like a particularly significant turn of events to me. More like a waste of time.

 

Quite likely simply a case of the higher echelons of police currying favour with the Thaksin family. So purely for domestic posturing purposes

What war crimes? Surely you are not harking back to the Khmer Rouge regime at which time Hun Sen was a random teenager

Do any of you at all recognize political theater when you see it? doesn't sound like it. that's the way the world works

Legally there is absolutely nothing to be done by any authority. The whole hoohaa serves as a smoke screen only, apart from the biggest loss of face for the sweetheart of Thaksin. 

Hun Sen's action might be despicable and proves, once more, again the kind of character he is. 

What a joke; Thailand's economy is on fire, tourism is dead, investments are lagging far behind the most conservative estimations and all they care is the loss of face .......

Hun Sen is what you get the world screws up a country

IMO there are far worse leaders than Hun Sen - Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, Senior General Min Aung Hlaing (Burma), for starters!

Oh really! Personally I do not think so.

For reference (Google):-

 

Hun Sen played a significant role in the Cambodian conflict against the Khmer Rouge, both before and after the Vietnamese invasion. He initially fled to Vietnam with his battalion in 1977 due to disagreements with the Khmer Rouge regime and later became a leader in the Vietnamese-sponsored rebel army. Following the Vietnamese victory, he served in the government of the People's Republic of Kampuchea (PRK), which was supported by Vietnam. The Khmer Rouge continued to fight as insurgents against the PRK and later the Kingdom of Cambodia until their surrender in 1999.  (to Hun Sen)

Since when does Thai law apply to Cambodia?

 

Seems that the Thai ultra-nationalists are running the show.

In a significant turn of events, Thai police are set to submit a case against Cambodian leader Hun Sen to the Attorney-General's Office on Monday. The action stems from allegations of national security threats after Hun Sen released an audio clip of a phone call with suspended Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra.

 

What a laughable and ridiculous move, leaving aside that Cambodia won't extradite him to stand trial in Thailand anyway. 

 All a dog and pony show.. its a circus & we all have front row seats

 

 Methinks this will backfire & go away Amazingly Thailand quickly.... :coffee1:

Hun Sen was a Khmer Rouge commander, him and his family both part of a regime that committed horrendous crimes against humanity while serving under Pol Pot!! His family dynasty has partaken to this day in a watered down version of Pol Pots massacre!!

Not too much different from the current situation in Myanmar where an illegal regime is systematically murdering its people for their own personal gains and Thailand in a sense embraces that illegally instated Junta regime!

China also plays a huge part in all of these countries, there for its own financial gain at the expense of the people! Most of the scam centres in Cambodia, Laos, Thailand & Myanmar are Chinese operated ripping off citizens of the world.

With respect, are you suggesting he still has Killing Fields where many Cambodian citizens are being murdered, but to a lesser extent? I do not think so.

The Genocide Centres and Killing Fields have just been awarded UNESCO World Heritage Peace Sites listing.

 

Phnom Penh, CambodiaAP — 

Three locations used by Cambodia’s brutal Khmer Rouge regime as torture and execution sites 50 years ago have been added by UNESCO to its World Heritage List .  https://edition.cnn.com/2025/07/13/travel/cambodia-khmer-rouge-sites-unesco-list-intl-hnk

Like several other countries political adversaries or anti government voices seem to either disappear or are detained/imprisoned! Call it what you like but it happens!

I never even suggested he had killing fields!

Tensions here based on the news, are rising. This trend does not look good and there could be some level of war.

It's all looking very auspicious and ominous to me. A good psychic was recounting to me in early Jan or Feb about some kind of war with Cambo and TH. This person also had a dream last summer about a "building falling over" in Bangkok, which was a premonition because the earthquake proved the dream true. 

Things are getting tense between these two countries, the most in Asia it seems? What other nations in Asia are this tense?
