The situation around the Thai-Cambodian border near Preah Vihear temple was still normal, Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwon said on Sunday.

He said Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen met on Saturday and both of them agreed to ease the tension around the disputed border.

The Thai and Cambodian army officials would have to negotiate on the withdrawal of troops along the border, Gen Prawit said.

Meanwhile, trading activities at Rong Kluea Market in Sa Kaeo province had returned to normal after the meeting between officials from both sides went well.
