		<description>Is this letter part of saying &quot;Thailand&#039;s-Cambodian Borders are drawn on the UN or universal Principle of Waterways and Mountains ( I don&#039;t know the correct term for it)&quot; as the Borderline and is supposed to be absolute, so does not open way for Inter-Country Dispute.  [Think of dispute between a to-be Father and Mother who wants to name their 1st offsring, and so agree that &#039;if its a boy, I get to name him&#039;, but if &#039;its a girl, you get to name her&#039;].  

For Khao Phra Viharn to suddenly be an exception to this rule (Anyone who has seen an areal photograph of the setting could see how obvious it is) from such an Official Body such as  UN or World Court,  is against this Right and will destabilize the 2 Nations, which would otherwise be quite settled by the Borderline Principle.  &quot;Human&quot; as a Nation or its residents are Human.

Perhaps that was the context? 

[Again, what is presented here are snippets and I&#039;ve not read this report, so I cannot say that it is &quot;ba!&quot; though I cannot claim it isn&#039;t either]</description>

		<description>Ah... angry Thais of every age - even the ajarn of AjarnSomsak... We all know the transition between &#039;anger&#039; and &#039;บ้า&#039; is a rather short one... the whole country needs some sort of anger management - a relative decided to take meditation very seriously (hours a day - and she now thinks of PMThaksin less)... For me, commenting in NM is rather therapeutic...</description>

		<description>That Saneh is a senile old man has been well known for many years. But the entire NHRC? One would like to know whether this letter had  passed through commission deliberations before it was sent.</description>

		<description>very apt headline! Yes บ้า indeed.

When I saw Saneh&#039;s statement, my reaction was:
&quot;If Saneh wants to become a political activist/supporter of the PAD, why does he not get up on their stage and give speech (a la Phuwadon)? Doing this is so pathetic&quot;

Let me add also that some former teacher and friend of mine who I never in a million years thought would jump on to the PAD&#039;s nationalistic bandwagon had done so. Being anti-Thaksin I can &quot;understand&quot; and &quot;accept&quot; and even expect - really. But joining this Preah Vihear campaign? This is very sad for me personally. 

I refer particularly to the case of &quot;พี่เนาว์&quot; (the famous poet Naowarat Phongphibun) and, especially shocking, my former teacher Prof Srisak Wanliphodom. The latter even suggested a few days ago that the Thai military should lay seize to the &quot;disputed area&quot; and the PV temple for a year to pressure Cambodia to be more receptive to the Thai demands (or something of this sort, sorry no text readily on hand.)</description>

		<description>Andrew--I had read this letter by the commission yesterday and appreciate you expressing your dismay.  It truly is crazy that the HUMAN RIGHTS commission is choosing this as their battle.
