PRIME Minister Hun Sen met yesterday with Thailand’s ambassador to Cambodia, Prasas Prasasvinitchai, about a month after his return to the Kingdom. Eang Sophalleth, a personal assistant to Hun Sen, said that the meeting between the premier and Prasas aimed to strengthen cooperation between the two neighbouring countries. The ambassador returned to Phnom Penh in late August, nine months after Bangkok withdrew him during a diplomatic row.
