China to train and upgrade Cambodian army

They know us very well and aren't stupid like you.
You paid your money to Cambodian friends to facing with Philippine recently to "not internationalize" the disputes with China. What is the result from this idiot idea ? Philippine choose bring disputes to arbitration under the International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea.
Your money is useless.
Watch as we shoot down any motion from Philippines, just like we'll shoot you down when your country whine. Nothing gets passed in the UN without all Big Five approving, and we're one of them.

Hey, problem is the dispute became " The SCS dispute is internationalized on UN forum " China have to pay her comedian to show the role of big boy but one bad boy ". It's the Philippine achieved.
Turn back to topic, our Cambodian friends can take a relax now. The deal completed. Final Payment has been made by cash, I think so. China can't cheat them no furnish final payment.

They can cry as low as they like, but nobody will come to their aid. We control the disputed island now. This is also your future fate.
 
You can support them if you like. History shows that Cambodia tends to overestimate itself and used to be a ball played by ancient Vietnam and Siam (Thailand). Hopefully they have learned their mistakes.

During the decline of the Khmer Empire she was ripped apart by both Siam and Vietnam. At the height of her Empire she expanded and others were the ball. I wouldn't underestimate the Khmer people, a once great people that ruled over mainland southeast asia. I think the Cambodian people have learned the from her past mistakes.

Philippine don't cry, the big news last week was the filing of the Philippine Government’s “Notification and Statement of Claim” before the UN’s arbitration tribunal that challenges China’s 9-dash (or U) line claim to the entire West Philippine/South China Sea/East China Sea.
for that China has unlawfully claimed and unlawfully exploited the resources of Philippines’ continental shelf and EEZ; and that China has unlawfuly interfered with Philippines rights of navigation within and and beyond 200 miles of the Philippine’s archipelagic baseline. :tup:
 
I think the map is fake. Cambodia with his small population, couldn't controlled hug area with forest, jungle in same time with Tang Dynasty in China; and where were Laotians and Thai people ?

What's the time dept of the map?

Laotians and Thai were still at home in Guangxi/Guangdong around 112 BC and migrated no later than AD 420-589. Thai and Laotion migration coincide with Han Dynasty south of the tropics invasion.

PHNOM PENH--Cambodia will use part of a $195 million loan from China to buy 12 of its military helicopters and boost its tiny fleet, its defense minister said on Jan. 23, the latest deal underlining Beijing's tight alliance with the Southeast Asian country.

Tea Banh said the 12 Chinese-built Zhi-9 army utility helicopters would be for use mainly in humanitarian missions. He did not disclose the cost of the helicopters.

"Clearly, these will help our efficiency and capability," Tea Banh said during a ceremony in which the Deputy Chief of Staff of China's military, General Qi Jianguo, signed an agreement to help train Cambodia's armed forces.

China has played a key role in improving Cambodia's dilapidated military inventory over the past two years, as well as providing big loans and a slew of large-scale investments in construction, energy, transport and agriculture.

That influx of cash has earned China a small but significant ally in Southeast Asia as the United States seeks to boost its footprint in the region to capitalize on its growth and counter Beijing's growing influence.

Critics accuse China of using its economic muscle to ensure Cambodia works in its strategic interests within the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), which requires consensus on all decisions.

In the past year, Chinese companies have pledged to invest $8 billion in Cambodia, a figure equivalent to almost two-thirds of its entire economy. The $195 million loan was made in late 2012.

The alliance between the two countries expanded to defense support in 2010 when Beijing donated 250 jeeps, trucks and ambulances to Cambodia's army after the U.S. scrapped its plan to provide the military with 200 vehicles.

That was in response to Cambodia sending 20 ethnic minority Uighur asylum seekers back to China in 2009 at Bejing's request.

Much of Cambodia's military equipment is outdated and in need of repair, with only a few helicopters currently in use.

With China's assistance in its building and teaching, the Royal Cambodian Army Academy held the graduation ceremony of its first batch of cadets on January 24, 2013. Qi Jianguo, deputy chief of general staff of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA), and his party were invited to the ceremony.

In his speech, Hun Sen, Cambodia's prime minister, expressed that the Army Academy is a witness to the friendship between the two countries and also another highlight of the cooperation between the two countries. The first batch of cadets jointly trained by the two sides has graduated as scheduled, which has epoch-making significance. The Cambodian side is sincerely thankful to the Chinese side for its valuable assistance and is willing to seek closer cooperation to constantly develop the bilateral relations.

In his address, Qi Jianguo hoped that the cadets would make great contributions to the building of Cambodia and its military as well as the development of China-Cambodia friendship. China will, as always, support the building of the Cambodian military, strengthen pragmatic cooperation with the Cambodian military and make due contributions to promoting all-round development of the relations between the two countries and maintaining regional peace and stability.

Pan Guangxue, Chinese ambassador to Cambodia, Tea Banh, Cambodian deputy prime minister and defense minister, and Pol Saroeun, commander in chief of the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces (RCAF), were present at the ceremony.

As for Thailand, any upgrade to the Cambodian army will almost certainly result in both increasing hostility from the ultra-nationalist "patriots" involved in the dispute surrounding the Preah Vihear temple. There are likely to be calls from the military to upgrade Thai forces facing Cambodia, the only country with which Thailand has had armed conflicts in recent years.

On Thursday, top officials of the Chinese government's railways ministry signed a deal in Phnom Penh to design, fund and build a new seaport and 404km railway from Preah Vihear to Koh Kong, the island province just off the Thai coast. The railway will virtually shadow the the entire eastern border of Thailand with Cambodia.

China agreed to train, equip and upgrade the Royal Cambodian Armed Force (RCAF) after the United States considered, then rejected a request by Phnom Penh, a separate report by the Washington-based Radio Free Asia service.

"China has played a key role in improving Cambodia's dilapidated military inventory since 2010, when Beijing donated 250 jeeps (sic) and trucks to Cambodia's army after the US scrapped a similar plan," the RFA reported.

The US opposition to Cambodian military aid was a direct result of the decision by Cambodia to send 20 ethnic minority Uighur asylum seekers back to China for virtually certain imprisonment or worse.
