Natural Resources and Environment Minister Suwit Khunkitti has decided to stay on as head of the Thai delegation to a World Heritage Committee meeting in Paris in June.
Mr Suwit had a change of heart after a meeting with Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva, Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban and Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya yesterday.
Speaking after the meeting, Mr Suwit said the meeting agreed to set up an ad-hoc committee to solve the border conflict with Cambodia.
The prime minister wanted him to lead the committee to ensure that there is policy unity in handling the issue, said Mr Suwit.
“The prime minister wants me to head the ad-hoc panel. I am willing to carry out the task to protect the country’s sovereignty and create a better understanding between Thailand and Cambodia,” said Mr Suwit.
