Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwon has made a U-turn by agreeing to attend next month’s General Border Committee meeting on the dispute with Cambodia – on the condition that host nation Indonesia does not get directly involved in the talks.
Gen Prawit had originally vowed to stay away from the talks, set for Bogor, Indonesia, on April 7 and 8, as he objected to the involvement of a third country in an issue which he says can still be resolved bilaterally.
However yesterday he said he had “no problem” with the location, so long as Indonesia did not take part in the forum.
Gen Prawit and Cambodian Defence Minister Teah Banh will co-chair the meeting.
