The Foreign Ministry will recheck a news report that ousted former prime minister Thaksin Shnawatra has been given a Cambodian nationality since 2008, secretary-general to the foreign minister Chavanont Intharakomalsuth said on Friday afternoon.
“The ministry had already made an initial double-check with the Cambodian authority but has received no response. A serious recheck will be further carried out”, Mr Chavanont said.
Buranat Samutrak, spokesman of the Democrat Party, earlier this after noon claimed that the Intelligent News [Khmer Intelligence News], a Cambodian news agency, had on Feb 1 reported that Thaksin has received Cambodian nationality since March 2008.
King Norodom Sihamoni of Cambodia had directed relevant Cambodian officials to keep this matter a top secret, he added.
