PHNOM PENH, Cambodia — Thailand and Cambodia said Tuesday they are sending their ambassadors back to each other's country in hopes of easing a nine-month diplomatic spat between the neighbours.
The step to normalizing ties came after Thailand's divisive former leader Thaksin Shinawatra quit his job as an adviser to the Cambodian government Monday, citing time constraints. Thaksin's acceptance of the post in November had fueled a diplomatic brouhaha.
Thai Ambassador to Cambodia Prasas Prasasvinitcha arrived in Phnom Penh on Tuesday evening but did not speak to reporters. Cambodia's envoy will return to Bangkok on Wednesday, the foreign ministry spokesman said.
