Surin: Senator Military Committee visited the Thai-Cambodian border area. The situation seemed to be improving but they could not be trusted. They asked their junior soldiers not to be complacent and to maintain the situation. They also gave them amulets as encouragement. Meanwhile, Gen. Sawat revealed that on 13 June, four experts will be invited to discuss the border issue. He said that there might be a resolution to invite security officials to explain.
According to Thai News Agency, General Sawat Tasana, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Military Affairs and State Security, along with the committee, visited the Thai-Cambodian border at the Suranaree Forces in Surin Province to acknowledge the report on the operations of the Suranaree Forces and visited the border to observe the facts in the area from the current situation at Prasat Ta Muen Thom and Prasat Ta Kwai. He gave amulets to the soldiers on duty at both castles to boost their morale and ensure safety in carrying out their missions.
General Sawat said that it seems that the situation has begun to improve. However, from the news that Cambodia reported that there was no withdrawal of troops and the filling of the kulet, we cannot fully trust the withdrawal. It may be for a while because it is easier for them to reinforce or travel back into the area than us, both in terms of route and distance. It is more convenient or closer than us. Therefore, the situation can change or change at any time. I have emphasized to my fellow soldiers that we can listen but should not trust or reduce our vigilance too much. We will have to be careful and maintain the situation for a while.
"We must be careful and cannot trust anything, especially since there has been a history in the past, so we should not let our guard down at this time. In terms of the readiness of the soldiers, we are confident that the brave soldiers who are on duty in this area are ready in terms of both morale and discipline. We must commend and be confident that these soldiers will be able to protect every inch of Thai land," said Gen. Sawat. When asked if the committee would include details from today's field visit into the agenda of the House Committee, General Sawat said that after we went to the field on June 13, there would be a meeting of the Military Committee, where there would be a discussion and four qualified persons were invited, all of whom had the knowledge and ability to follow the situation and had good knowledge of the Thai-Cambodian border. We did not block it just in the committee, but senators and the public could also join and listen.
As for whether there was any significance in organizing activities before the JBC meeting on June 14, General Sawat said that he had already been careful with the plan because the JBC meeting came later, and there had been constant news that the JBC meeting would not take place and that the meeting would go to the International Court of Justice. Most recently, the meeting would be held on the 14th, hosted by Cambodia. Therefore, we would have to watch the meeting, but what would be the outcome of the meeting or the discussion? And on June 13, when the Military Committee invited the four experts, it is expected that there would be a resolution to invite those involved in security to provide information.
