CAMBODIA and Thailand agreed to a key step in the resolution of the Preah Vihear border dispute – the redeployment of troops stationed in the contested area – on the final day of the General Border Committee yesterday.

But no timetable was set for the two sides to withdraw troops from a Provisional Demilitarised Zone established around the 11th-century Preah Vihear temple by an International Court of Justice ruling in July.

Cambodian Defence Minister Tea Banh told reporters after the meeting that both countries had agreed to implement the ICJ decision – which also orders the deployment of independent border observers from Indonesia, the current ASEAN chair, into the PDZ.
