Chavanond: Other items to be discussed
Bangkok Post
Thailand has successfully lobbied Cambodia to attend Joint Boundary Commission talks in Bogor, Indonesia, on April 7-8, despite the Thai parliament failing to approve three minutes on border demarcation.
The minutes arose from JBC meetings in 2008 and 2009.
"Phnom Penh softened its position after Thailand [successfully] lobbied it over the past week," Chavanond Intarakomalyasut, secretary to the foreign minister, said yesterday.
The parliament last week adjourned approval of the JBC documents due to a lack of a quorum.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen had previously threatened that his country would no longer negotiate with Bangkok on border demarcation if the Thai parliament did not pass the three JBC documents.
