What is the dispute between Thailand and Cambodia?
Thailand and Cambodia have fought over sovereignty at various undemarcated points along their 817 km border. The border was first mapped by France in 1907. In 2000, both nations established a Joint Border Commission. In 2008, tension rose after Cambodia tried to get the temple Preah Vihear, also called Khao Phra Viharn in Thailand, listed as a UNESCO heritage site.
