Bangkok (The Nation/ANN) - The Thailand-Cambodia Regional Border Committee (RBC) ended its oneday meeting Wednesday with a mutual agreement to strengthen cooperation between the military forces on both sides in order to maintain border security, Thailand's Second Army Region Commander LtGeneral Thawatchai Samutsakorn said.

The two sides also discussed the issue of withdrawing troops in line with the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling and allowing a team of observers from Indonesia to be stationed at the borders, but did not make any decisions because they are policy matters.

"We touched on the issue of troop withdrawal and the observers, but it is up to the governments to make the decision," he said.

The question of withdrawing troops from the area adjacent to Preah Vihear Temple, which the ICJ has said is a demilitarised zone, will be discussed again at a meeting of the General Border Committee (GBC) due in Phnom Penh next month, he said.

Actually shame on Cambodia for not competing in Miss.Universe. No wonder our land and culture is being stolen since no one in the world knows who Cambodia is and none cares if they invaded and robbed this unknown country.
