By Thai PBS

 

 

Thailand and Cambodia has agreed at the 3rd Joint Cabinet Retreat in Phnom Penh today (Sept 7) to go ahead with the opening of four more border crossings as Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha promised to take a good care of all legal Cambodian migrant workers.

 

Gen Prayut and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Thursday (Sept 7) co-chaired the 3rd Joint Cabinet Retreat (JCR) in Phnom Penh to exchange opinions on various issues and promote partnership for peace and prosperity, according to a Government House release.

 

The two sides agreed that the Thai-Cambodian relations and constructive cooperation have increased on every level. Thailand has placed importance on border development, especially to connect the two countries both by land and sea, with an aim to enhance economic growth along the border through cross-border trade and tourism.

Little surprise that the two countries get on so well now that democracy has virtually died in Cambodia as well

Suppose that mentioning where, would be a bit much for the Thai Visa report.

Maybe to make it easier for fleeing Politicians and others who upset the Government.

There are a lot of small local Immigration check points already, update them to International ones, I hear these announcements since ages. Just do it, takes less than 3-4 month.

All current crossings have casinos.  All future crossings will have casinos.  Casinos are money spinners for the elite.  Tons of Chinese who use to go to Macao are going to Cambodia.
