Beside the historical path of Phra Vihaan

The debris of a crashed Thai chopper and falgs killing machines still lie beside the ancient place. Its wasn't the only war weapons which we found along the debrises at Khao Preah Vihear. The result of a senseless dispute between two neighbor coutries.
Thailand's political opposition launched an attack on this revised plan, claiming the inclusion of Preah Vihear could nevertheless "consume" the overlapping disputed area near the temple. In response to the political pressure at home, the Thai government withdrew its formal support for the listing of Preah Vihear Temple as a World Heritage site.
Everybody can make his own opinion, most of the visitors of the great temple premise are standing on the side of the Khmers and Cambodia.
