Thailand Eager To Improve Ties With Cambodia

BANGKOK, Dec 29 (Bernama) -- The Government of Thailand wants to improve diplomatic relations with Cambodia but needs to protect its prestige and sovereignty, according to the Vietnam news agency's (VNA) report on Monday.
The statement was made by Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva in his speech delivered on the country's radio and television on December 27.
Abhisit pointed out that he had not regarded the speeches made by Cambodian counterpart Hun Sen of a coup de-tat in Cambodia as a hurdle to the building of bilateral diplomatic ties.
Thailand will consider appointing an ambassador to Phnom Penh if the Cambodian government withdraws their remarks on the Thai judiciary system and adjust their stance, the Thai PM said.
