Parliament, "Senator Khamnoon" issues a strong warning. "Seththa Government" does not choose to follow the path. 'MoU 2001' during the era of General Maeo, may cause 3 locks, 2 risks being stolen and lost 'Koh Kood' to Cambodia. Suggest to do it at the same time. Discussing the use of undersea treasures - Negotiating borders along the entire length In the Senate meeting with General Singsuek Singprai, 1st Vice President of the Senate, acting as the meeting chairman. Consider an urgent motion to open a general debate in the Senate. To allow the Cabinet (Cabinet) to state facts or clarify important problems regarding government administration. without voting According to Section 153 of the Constitution, Mr. Khamnoon Sitthisaman, a member of the Senate (Senator), discussed the issue of negotiations over overlapping areas in the Gulf of Thailand between Thailand and Cambodia. At one point, he said that he was concerned after listening to Mr. Settha Thavisin, the Prime Minister, speak. Speech on the turning poin t of Thai energy towards sustainability while opening the Thailand energy exclusive forum and stated that the most important issue is OCA, which is an overlapping area that has enormous value. It depends on which numbers are being talked about. If the value is higher than 20 trillion baht But we have problems with borders, borders, which are delicate matters. Please divide it into 2 parts. is a matter of complex space and the story of the treasure under the sea That needs to be discussed. We assure you that we give this matter our highest priority. to try to put this asset to use quickly During the transition from Brown Energy to Green Energy, please rest assured that we will continue this matter. It will distinguish between problems of overlapping areas and problems of benefit sharing. that must be transparent and verifiable Mr. Khamnoon further said that what he was worried about was that when the senators protested about this matter, the Prime Minister assigned Mr. Chakkraphong Saengmanee, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, to answer and clarify. Mr. Chakkraphong explained that he would not divide the negotiations, with 3 options: 1. Hold. According to the MOU in 2001, the area was divided into 2 parts. By drawing a line from the 73rd subduction pillar or point A down into the continental shelf sea. Using the line of latitude 11 degrees north, demarcate the upper and lower boundaries. Ready to emphasize that there will be negotiations at the same time both at the top and at the bottom, the negotiations cannot be separated. 2. Will there be additional amendments to the 2001 MOU or will a new 2024 MOU be made to share national benefits by fast By putting the boundary matter on hold for now and 3. Negotiating and agreeing on the boundary successfully along the line before dividing maritime benefits. On July 1, 1972, the Lon Nol government seized power and overthrew the Cambodian monarchy. and announced the boundary line of the continental shelf bisecting Koh Kood, Trat Province, Thailand, covering half of the is land's territory. Even though Koh Kood has been Thai for over 150 years. Since the reign of King Rama 5 Mr. Khamnoon further said that later the Thai authorities responded in 1973. By issuing a royal command on 18 May 1973, published in the Royal Gazette. Based on the Geneva Convention Drawing the line separating Koh Kood and returning it to Thailand as before. by allowing the navy to seize and maintain this boundary and lifted the Siam-France Agreement of 1907, Section 2, dated March 23, 1907, in the case where the French government agreed to cede the territory of Dan Sai and Trat. with the islands Which is under Laem Sing to Koh Kood belongs to Siam. And in the past, Cambodia has never contested these rights before. What is worrying is when the Thai Rak Thai Party government comes in. And there was an MOU in 2001, causing 3 locks, 2 risks, 3 locks, namely 1. to divide the territory in specific areas 2. to set a fixed area of ??interest in the parts that have not yet been divided. 3. Unable to negotiate in other ways, while 2 risks are 1. Loss of benefits. (immediately upon agreement) and 2. losing the boundary (immediately upon agreement and in the future) Mr. Khamnoon also said that while the disadvantage is that Thailand has no issues to negotiate over ownership of Koh Kood. Acknowledging the existence of Cambodia's continental shelf boundary and recording it in the MOU in 2001 is just a matter of bringing conflicts to the table for negotiations. Or it may be considered tacit acceptance. or falls into the nature of estoppel If it has to be a matter before the International Court of Justice in the future Therefore, if Thailand abandons its advantage The upper and lower boundary lines go. It will put us at a disadvantage to Cambodia. However, how will the Cabinet decide on this matter? He believes in loyalty. In reverence for the ancestors There are 2 cases when making a decision: 1. Must be responsible for one's ancestors that preserves Thai territory and has passed it on to our generation and 2. must be res ponsible for our children and grandchildren that any decision You must leave an inheritance for your children and grandchildren. 'So will the government choose to follow the guidelines as per the 2001 MOU or not? Or will the government have a new direction to choose? By taking the treasure under the sea and using it first. and not talking about boundaries at the same time I don't agree. I saw that we had to do it together. And we have to negotiate the border along the lines of both countries,' Mr. Khamnoon said. Source: Thai News Agency
