Cambodia, Thailand To Conduct Joint Border Patrols

[churchill]

The armies of Cambodia and Thailand have agreed to conduct joint patrols along the two countries common border following their recent meeting.

Cambodian newspapers said on August 4 that the meeting took place immediately after Thailand had appointed General Srey Duk as the new commander of the areas where Thailand borders with Cambodia.

According to General Srey Duk, both parties have agreed to maintain friendship between military units stationed on the border and increase bilateral meetings to nurture a better understanding

Must be a typo on that website in your link.. General Srey Doek (not Srey Duk) is a Cambodian so how can he be appointed by Thailand?

I haven't seen this anywhere but in different Vietnam news pages..

Hello, it is so much better that the two countries can cooperate and not try to use force. Peace is a better alternative in a civilized world, and I hope no more people will be killed or hurt in this conflict. Cheers.
