Abhisit, wake up and accept Asean's help


When two neighbours quarrel to the extent of having to use firearms, common sense tells me that both parties cannot sit down and negotiate on their own.

One has to call police to resolve the issue. I give the benefit of the doubt to the Foreign Ministry and PM Abhisit Vejjajiva for knowing best in not giving importance to Cambodia internationally and regionally. But I now start to doubt the government's tactic in declining the offer of help from Asean when it should be beneficial to us to allow others to see the other side of our opponent.

Furthermore, I am also puzzled by a man who has called Hun Sen a ruffian, then having the audacity to shake his hand afterward. He is supposed to talk sense with Hun Sen. In this latest flare-up he called Hun Sen a delinquent and blamed Russia, France and India for taking sides. He is now still our representative in resolving our issues with Hun Sen. I have to admit that either I am in the wrong universe or PM Abhisit and the Foreign Ministry are outside this orbit.
