INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS; 3. FAR EASTERN RELATIONS; FE/6118/A3/1; LENGTH: 447 words Referring to the accusation that Thai L-19 aircraft had violated the air space of the People's Republic of Kampuchea over the town of Poipet several times in the past two weeks and penetrated 9 km deep inside Kampuchean territory late last month, the Supreme Command information office wishes to make it known that this accusation is groundless. This is because the Thai armed forces not only always strictly adhere to their policy of avoiding any act which might lead the entire Thai nation into involvement in conflicts created by others, but also regard it as their duty to implement the government's policy of neutrality for the sake of national stability. To give a better understanding of events, the Supreme Command information office would like to inform the fraternal Thai people about the military operations as follows: (1) Because of the accusation, the Supreme Command Headquarters questioned the air force and the army on this matter. The air force reported that no L-19 aircraft had been sent to operate in the border areas during that period. Every flight made by air force pilots is monitored by the air force air traffic control system. All pilots have been instructed not to overfly the territory of other countries. The army also reported that no L-19 aircraft had operated along the border with Kampuchea during that period and that it would be impossible for an aircraft from another area to fly across the border areas without being detected. (2) According to the opinion of officials from various agencies, because part of Aranyaprathet District, Prachin Buri Province, protrudes into Kampuchean territory about 7 km south-east of Poipet, people in the area opposite Aranyaprathet District might get the wrong impression that aircraft flying in the area had violated Kampuchean air space. The fraternal Thai people are hereby informed. However, it may be added that Thailand has been facing very severe problems caused by the actions of its neighbouring countries without making any complaint or protest against anybody. This includes the influx of huge numbers of refugees and those who illegally enter the country along the border, the inestimable damage caused to crops by these people, as well as the open violations of Thai territory by Kampuchean soldiers belonging to different sides now well known to the whole world. The Thai authorities and people have exercised restraint in facing these problems and difficulties for the sake of friendship and peace. However, should any attempt be made to escalate the conflict, the Thai armed forces stand ready to defend the country's sovereignty and the Thai people's wellbeing.

While progress is being made in planning, prioritisation, and land release, the target of completing anti-personnel mine clearance by 2025 is highly ambitious and could only be achieved with significantly increased funding and capacity. Cambodia continued to make good progress during 2019 in its ongoing baseline re-survey to more accurately determine the extent of remaining contamination and expected to complete the survey in the course 2020. However, while release through survey in 2019 remained broadly the same as in 2018, clearance output fell significantly compared to previous year. Although not entirely clear, multiple factors are thought to account for the decrease in clearance, including tasking of a larger proportion of difficult-to-access mined areas with more challenging terrain, compared to previous years; clearance of more mixed contamination; and decreased funding to some operators.

From 2004 until now, we have documented 167 allegations of torture and/or ill treatment. Previously, CrCF has taken the lead in submitting shadow reports to various UN human rights bodies (UPR 2011, CRC 2011 CERD 2012, as well as the Committee for Convention against Torture (CAT-for 2013/2014), and submitted complaints to the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture and the UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances. Furthermore, CrCF has cooperated on various occasions with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in organizing and conducting trainings and workshops for Thai human rights organizations. 2) Until date, CrCF continues to receive reports of cases of violation of the right to life and prohibition of torture and ill treatment; deaths in custody, arbitrary detention and enforced disappearances. Thailand has yet to ratify OP-CAT. Currently, there is no mechanism to monitor human rights violations, to support victims in submitting complaints or to investigate these complaints.

  • Implications of Border Trade Between Thailand and Cambodia
    doi: 10.14456/jms.2017.4 The Truck Terminal Project in Sa Kaeo Province: Implications of Border Trade between Thailand and Cambodia Jirawat Jaroensathapornkul School of Economics and Public Policy Srinakharinwirot University, Bangkok, Thailand E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Thailand has recently put in place a logistics development plan for a network of road transport. Included among several projects is one for setting up truck terminals in border cities to act as centers for the pooling and distribution of goods. Sa Kaeo is considered a promising border city. This study investigates the impacts of a truck terminal project in Sa Kaeo province on border trade between Thailand and Cambodia using secondary data and in-depth interviews that are analyzed under the SWOT Matrix. The analytical results have led to several recommendations, as follows: The Thai government should complete the project at Ban Nong Ian as soon as possible by including it in the formation of a special economic zone in the province. The reason is that Aranyaprathet Customs House, the existing check point, is no longer able to serve the major increase in border trade. However, there are certain concerns about an insufficient distribution of benefits to the general public in the province. It is therefore suggested that investment in the animal feed industry should be promoted in Sa Kaeo for export to Cambodia. Also, there are some concerns that Cambodian enterprises may be reluctant to transfer their products to the new customs house as they may have to bear more expenses. In this regard, the Thai government may offer temporary remedies for Thai entrepreneurs within a certain limit of time through a subsidy against the margin to maintain export prices at competitive levels to motivate Cambodian entrepreneurs to adapt their operations.

    The study of an Impact of immigrant-workers on Public Health: A Case Study in SaKaeo Province, Thailand. NawasananWongprasit, Rajabhat Rajanagarindra University, Thailand. The Asian Conference on the Social Sciences 2016 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract This qualitative research aimed to study impact of immigrant-workers on public health in SaKaeo, and to propose strategies to improve it. In-depth interview was used for collecting data. The data were analyzed by content analysis. This study was conducted in the 20 immigrant-workers in 200 communities and 5 Tambon Health Promoting directors in Aranyaprathet district Sakaeo province, Thailand. It was found that: the impacts of immigrant-worker on public health were more infectious diseases transmitted by them. The respiratory tract infection disease was found. All of them had not been registered officially, thus they had not gone through a physical check-up process. They lived together in crowded and unhygienic surroundings. The children born from these women were not vaccinated and lacked immunity. It was found one diphtheria case in boy. The impact of immigrant-workers on health professionals and government budget was increased work load for health professionals and government budget requirement to take care of them. The researcher proposes some strategies to reduce the health problems caused were employing strong measures upon illegal workers and building employers’ awareness of their obligations in hiring them, also requiring immigrant-workers to register with health service providers for screening diseases and to have medical insurance, cooperation among government and private units with responsibility for immigrant- workers health. The immigrant children should be got vaccinated and immunity the same as Thai children in order to reduced the emerging infectious disease in the future.

  • 230 Natural Ventilation Design for the Indochina Market in Aranyaprathet, Thailand
    RSU International Research Conference 2018 4 May 2018 Natural Ventilation Design for the Indochina Market in Aranyaprathet, Thailand Songpol Atthakorn Faculty of Architecture, Rangsit University, Thailand e-mail: [email protected] Abstract This research investigates the cause of the ventilation problems of border markets in Aranyaprathet district, Thailand and shows how the new design of market prototype designed by the author can solve the problems by natural ventilation. In this study, the Indochina market is the new design outcome. The Rong Kluea market in Aranyaprathet is well known as the country’s largest border market. There are 5 other giant markets built gradually around the old market for several decades. The major problem of these border markets is that they lack wind blowing into the shopping arcade. The inside still air makes people feel hot and muggy. The survey of several existing markets around the Rong Kluea market area shows that most of the building cases are very hot and humid. Even though, these older buildings are full of shaded roofs and openings above the roof throughout the market walkways, there is little air movement in most buildings in the market. Literatures explain what the thermal comfort zone is, how to comfort people in such a hot place, how the wind can reduce the heat in tropical environments and how to bring the effective wind into buildings. The methodology in this research is done in 5 steps. Firstly, the research teams start collecting data of the existing markets. Secondly, the data are analyzed to identify the problems of the existing markets.

    2nd Mekong Climate Change Forum Adaptation to Climate Change in the Transboundary Context 6-8 October 2014 Siem Reap, Cambodia Forum Book of Abstracts 6-8 October 2014 | Siem Reap | Cambodia 1 FORUM BRIEF Home to about 60 million people, the Lower Mekong River Basin (LMB) has experienced rapid development, urbanisation and population growth which have adverse effects on the Mekong resources and populations who depend on them. Climate change has increasingly placed burdens on the environment and the people. For example, rising temperatures and unpredictable rainfall are bringing drought to some areas and flooding to others. The Mekong Delta is experiencing sea level rise and increasing saltwater intrusion to its ecosystems and farmland. Extreme weather events such as typhoons are increasing in frequency and severity, destroying homes, infrastructure, livestock and crops. Adaptation measures can help vulnerable communities and governments to better deal with such changing climate conditions and thus reduce consequences on people’s livelihoods, ecosystems and the economy. The Mekong River Commission (MRC) is holding a three-day forum for all stakeholders, including government officials, academics, experts, representatives from river basin organisations, the Development Partners of the MRC, development agencies, civil society and the private sector, to share and exchange their knowledge, experience and progress in undertaking measures to adapt to changing climate. This is the second MRC regional platform on climate change following the first forum held in February 2009 in Bangkok, Thailand. This 2nd Mekong Climate Change Forum will explore the following topics: • State of knowledge on climate change and climate change impacts and vulnerability in the Lower Mekong Basin; • Climate change adaptationin the Lower Mekong Basin: Policies, strategies and actions on the ground; • Transboundary adaptation needs and approaches in the Lower Mekong Basin; and, • A synergy between the national and transboundary adaptation.
