On that occasion, ASEAN Observers Team inspected the actual situation regarding the unilateral construction of a border fence by the Thai military near Border Pillars No. 52 to No. 54, where they witnessed damage to temporary markers caused by this unilateral action. Following a briefing on the technical details of the joint survey and temporary demarcation efforts previously conducted by the joint survey teams of both countries, the ASEAN Observer Team – Cambodia (AOT-KH) inspected the sites where Thai citizens have encroached upon Cambodian territory for agricultural activities between Border Pillars No. 52 to No. 59. It should be noted that the Cambodian side has formally protested these actions via diplomatic notes, as they infringe upon existing bilateral procedures under the jurisdiction of the Joint Boundary Commission (JBC). In this regard, Cambodia has urged the prompt convening of the JBC to resolve these issues. The purpose of the visit was to provide the ASEAN Observer Team with a factual and comprehensive understanding of the situation on the ground through direct observation and supporting technical information. It also reaffirmed the position of the Royal Government of Cambodia that any border-related issues should be addressed peacefully through dialogue, in accordance with international law, existing bilateral Treaties and Agreements, and the established mechanisms of the Cambodia–Thailand Joint Boundary Commission (JBC).
