Veera leads villagers in border standoff with Cambodia

Veera leads villagers in border standoff with Cambodia . Human rights activist, Veera Somkwamkid led a group of nearly 200 Thai villagers from Ban Nong Chan and surrounding provinces to the Nong Chan checkpoint (Jor Sor 40) on Siphon Road, Non Mak Mun subdistrict, Khok Sung district, Sa Kaeo province. . The group, which included several landowners whose farmland has allegedly been occupied by Cambodia for over 40 years, gathered to demand that the military take action to remove Cambodian forces from the disputed area. . After giving the authorities a deadline to act, Veera and the villagers arrived with one excavator and four Kubota tractors equipped with blades and ploughs, declaring they were ready to enter what they said was Thai sovereign territory. . Meanwhile, Thai security forces including two companies of crowd control police and nearly 200 territorial defence volunteers, were deployed along Siphon Road, near the entrance to Ban Nong Chan opposite the Cambodian village of Jok Chey, where Cambodian forces are said to have encroached. Officers formed three to four defensive lines to prevent any unauthorised entry into the area. . The tense standoff reflects ongoing frustrations among local residents over unresolved border issues and the demand for decisive government action to reclaim disputed land. . #ThaiCambodianBorder #VeeraSomkwamkid #SaKaeo #BorderDispute
