BANGKOK, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Thailand's cabinet was reviewing aid to Cambodia on Tuesday, a government official said, the latest move in a diplomatic row triggered by a visit by fugitive former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra to the neighbouring country.
The cabinet will discuss various retaliatory measures, including freezing low-interest loans to build roads in Cambodia, during its weekly meeting, said Panitan Wattanayagorn, deputy secretary-general to Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva.
"Most of the projects discussed are aid and loans for infrastructure projects, which might be delayed or cancelled," Panitan said.
"The government will also look at all other projects with Cambodia and discuss appropriate measures, but we will make sure it does not hurt the public."
