NO TALK HAS BEEN recently held between de facto Pheu Thai boss-cum-convict on parole Thaksin Shinawatra and former Cambodian prime minister Hun Sen about unsolved dispute between Thailand and Cambodia over overlapping maritime boundaries and undersea natural resources off both countries’ shores, said Pheu Thai MP Noppadon Pattama today (Feb. 27).

 

Noppadon, a former foreign minister, categorically dismissed as “groundless” the criticism that the two former prime ministers had recently held a tete-a-tete talk about ways and means to settle the decade-long dispute over the overlapping maritime boundaries around Koh Koot island in the Gulf of Thailand which is officially held as Thai territory and joint Thai-Cambodian development projects on untapped natural resources undersea.

 

The former foreign minister said such “groundless” hearsay would merely confuse the public and spoil future negotiations between the two neighbouring countries.

 

Hun Sen paid an informal visit to Thaksin who wore soft splints around his neck and right arm at the latter’s Chan Song Lah residence last Wednesday and expressed admiration for a 32-year-long friendship between the two of them.

Thaksin is a civilian... why should he be meddling in politics at all.

Srettha should keep him quiet or lock him up.

how long before the dog collar comes off, this was a man who needed to stay in hospital before he suddenly got better and didn't need it 

I hope the powers-that-be here know what they're doing making this deal with the Devil.

 

They did all they could to prevent a Hun-like familial dynasty here which in Cambodia dominates the Norodom dynasty.

They are always making deals with 'Devils' Putin, China, Myanmar, and others.

I was suggesting the "deal" the Thai establishment has made with Thaksin. 

I thought Tony was seriously ill or has he made a miracle recovery since leaving his hospital bed

The charade continues.

I wonder if Thaksin's set up his office at home yet, or if he's taking calls pool-side?
