On 14 Dec 2010, Vietnamese border troops banned a group of about 18 opposition SRP MPs and other party officials – right inside Cambodian territories – from visiting the location where stakes are installed for a border post delimiting Cambodia and Vietnam in Memot district, Kampong Cham province.

The scuffle took place between the Cambodian border post in Daun Roath zone and the location for border post 103 located inside Daun Roath village, Roung commune, Memot district, Kampong Cham province.

The SRP MPs asked the Cambodian border police to contact with the Viet border troops so that they may travel to visit the location of border post 103, however the request was not successful.
