Cambodia - Cambodia-Thai relations in an upswing


Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen announced yesterday an improvement in the diplomatic and economic relations between Cambodia and Thailand.

"Cambodia wanted peace, friendship, cooperation and development along the borders with its neighbours," he told a road inauguration ceremony in Siem Reap province.

"It achieved this with Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. Unfortunately, these goals were destroyed along the Cambodian-Thai border in 2008. The new government led by the Pheu Thai Party has been trying to restore the situation," he added.

"In recent days, I have talked with Thai Prime Minster Yingluck about increasing business at the border between the two countries. I also told her that some crossings at the Cambodian-Thai border were open for business only two or three days a week and asked if more days were possible.

"Exchanging goods is better than exchanging fire. We exchanged fire once in early February 2011 near Preah Vihear temple and it happened again near Ta Moan and Ta Krobei temples after Khmer New Year, harming the people of both countries. Now, however, the situation improved. People can exchange goods at the border."
