Cambodian and Thai territory

Cambodian and Thai territory is a central feature once again amid the rise of Thai nationalism. Cambodians burned down the Thai embassy in 2003 after an alleged remark by a Thai actress that Angkor Wat belonged to Thailand. Thai nationalists were arrested after encroaching on the Cambodian border to put down territorial markers in 2011. To understand Thailand’s current political landscape, it is worth taking a step back to evaluate the damage that the yellow shirts and Thai nationalists caused the last time they took to the streets. The Preah Vihear Temple issue became an international one when Cambodia filed a complaint with the International Court of Justice (ICJ), objecting to Thai military occupation of the temple and its grounds in 1954. On 15 June 1962, the ICJ ruled that the temple was on the Cambodian side of the border and was the property of the Kingdom of Cambodia สล็อตเว็บตรง
