Cambodge Soir29-08-2008
Meeting between the two countries Friday, August 29, cancelled due to unrest in Thailand.
So the soldiers will enjoy a bit more sightseeing in Preah Vihear. On Friday August 29, a Cambodian delegation headed by Neang Phat, the Secretary of State for Defence was to meet with the Thailand Regional Borders Committee. On the agenda was the redeployment of the remaining soldiers still on the Preah Vihear site.
But the meeting was cancelled due to a new surge in the anti-government demonstrations troubling Thailand. On Wednesday August 27 at 2:00 pm, the Thai advisory team—although it arrived earlier to finalise the last details of the meeting—was asked to return home.
The Thais informed Neang Phat that they would like to postpone Friday’s meeting to discuss the outcome of the last encounter between Hor Nam Hong, the head of the Cambodian delegation and his Thai counterpart Tej Bunnag in the Thai resort of Hua Hin on August 19, at a later date.
