Cambodia-Thailand Border Tensions
October 22, 2008 – 11:55 am
The situation on at the border between Thailand and Cambodia, near the temple of Preah Vihear has remained unchanged, since violent clashes last week ended in a cease fire agreement.
Prime Minister Hun Sen, (the Prime Minister of Cambodia) and Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat of Thailand have confirmed that there will be a meeting in Bejing later this week to discuss border issues.
The travel situation in Cambodia has remained unafected by the tensions. All major airports are still operating as usual and bus systems are unaffected. Travel to Preah Vihear however, is not possible.
