Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwon will meet his Cambodian counterpart Tea Banh to discuss border problems during the 5th Asean Defence Ministers Meeting (ADMM) in Jakarta, Col Thanathip Sawangsaeng said on Wednesday.

The defence spokesman said Gen Prawit would be accompanied by Gen Kittipong Ketkowit, the permanent secretary for defence, and a number of military officers in the trip to Indonesia.

The meeting is for the defence ministers of the 10 Asean member countries to exchange opinions concerning security and military affairs in the region.

Asean's role in solving international problems such as suppression of piracy in the Gulf of Aden off Somalia will also be discussed.

The defence ministers attending the meeting will consider the 3-year operational plan under an ADMM framework for the years 2011-2013 and sign a document on the establishment of the Asean Peace-keeping Networks Centre, a document on an initiative on cooperation on defence industries, and a joint declaration on promotion of cooperation for the defence of Asean against new forms of threats.

Gen Prawit will also hold a bilateral meeting with the defence ministers of five countries - Indonesia, Cambodia, Malaysia, Vietnam and Singapore - regarding military relations and cooperation, border security, strengthening of confidence in the region, military exchange programmes, and joint military training and exercises.

Col Thanathip said Gen Prawit and Gen Tea Banh of Cambodia will meet to discuss border problems on this occasion.

On the last day of the meeting Gen Prawit will pay a courtesy call on Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
