After two hours of official talks, Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to more negotiations to resolve a border land dispute.
Cambodian Foreign Minister, Hor Namhong, says this is another step forward in the show of restraint.
In November, the two countries agreed to pull their troops out from the disputed area near the 900-year-old Preah Vihear temple and to follow up with joint demarcation of the heavily mined frontier.
But the political turmoil in Thailand that led to the fall of the government delayed the implementation of the plan.
Mr Hor and his Thai counterpart, Kasit Piromya, also agreed on a joint committee, to meet in March, to look at a stretch of disputed sea in the Gulf of Thailand, believed to contain oil and natural gas.
