Thailand has threatened to seal the border with Cambodia a day after both countries recalled their respective ambassadors over a dispute involving Thaksin Shinawatra, the former Thai prime minister.
The warning came amid an escalating diplomatic row triggered by Cambodia's appointment of Thaksin as economic adviser.
The Cambodian government made the announcement on state television late on Wednesday, almost two weeks after Hun Sen, the prime minister, first floated the idea at a summit of Asian leaders.
