Vietnam planted border posts between 5 and 50 metres inside Cambodian territory during the late 1980s, researchers from the Royal Academy of Cambodia said yesterday. Sok Touch, the director of border research at the academy, said there are three distinct sets of border posts – those planted during the French colonial period; those planted during the People’s Republic of Kampuchea (1985 – 1987); and those planted during the current regime.

Of those planted during the People’s Republic, most were planted by Vietnam, and many of these are deeper inside Cambodia than they ought to be, according to Touch. “It is not fair; most posts were planted 5 metres, some 10 metres, and others about 20 to 50 metres inside Cambodia,” he said.

Big deal! The Cambodians should be thankful the Vietnamese liberated them from Pol Pot who rushed into the welcoming and protective arms of the Thais.
