Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva should think carefully about the plan to revoke a memorandum of understanding on overlapping maritime boundaries in the Gulf of Thailand signed with Cambodia in 2001, ex-premier Somchai Wongsawat said on Saturday.
"The MOU revocation would damage the country and causes difficulties to Thai people”, Mr Somchai, a brother-in-law of ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra said.
Asked about Thaksin’s appointment as an economic advisor to the Cambodian government and personal advisor to Hun Sen, Mr Somchai said the appointment has not caused any damage to Thailand.
“It is an honour for Thaksin as he is accept by a foreign country. The government should not let personal feelings decide its foreign relation policy”, said Mr Somchai.
Foreign Affairs Minister Kasit Piromya had said on early this week said he would propose the MOU revocation plan to the cabinet meeting on upcoming Tuesday for approval.
