Now, real viewers of all fronts, on the other hand, you'd likely recall last year's brief border conflict between Thailand and Cambodia, which left hundreds dead and thousands displaced.

After multiple failed attempts at a ceasefire, the two sides finally signed a deal in late December that has so far managed to prevent any further fighting. But that doesn't mean the tensions between the two sides have calmed down.
