PHNOM PENH: Former Prime Minister Hun Sen has reiterated that the “Emerald Triangle” is Cambodian land and invited both countries, Thailand and Cambodia, to bring internationally recognised maps to The International Court of Justice in The Hague to end the dispute.

Cambodia and Thailand have both dispatched additional troops to the border, following a brief May 28 clash at the at Mum Bei area, in Preah Vihear province’s Choam Ksan district. The short exchange of fire left one Cambodian soldier dead.
