Thai - Cambodia Conflict US Again Urges Thailand to De-escalate Border Conflict with Cambodia

The United States has called on Thailand to immediately de-escalate tensions with Cambodia and agree to a ceasefire amid an ongoing border dispute between the two nations. In an official statement released by US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce, it was confirmed that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio held a telephone discussion with Thai Foreign Minister Maris Sengyempong earlier on 27 July. Secretary Rubio expressed deep concern over the escalating violence and stressed the urgent need for restraint. He urged the Thai government to reduce hostilities and commit to a ceasefire agreement with Cambodia to avoid further destabilisation in the region. The US diplomat also underscored President Trump’s strong desire for peace and reiterated Washington’s position that an immediate halt to the fighting is essential. “The United States stands ready to facilitate future discussions aimed at fostering peace and stability between Thailand and Cambodia,” the statement read. The border conflict between the two Southeast Asian neighbours has intensified in recent weeks, drawing concern from international observers. This latest intervention by Washington reflects growing international pressure on both sides to pursue diplomatic solutions. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-07-28 -

Crime Justice Minister Pushes Legal Reform to Ease Debt Burden on Citizens
Picture courtesy of Siam Rath The Minister of Justice, Pol Col Tawee Sodsong, has announced a major step forward in legal reform aimed at reducing the financial burden on debtors and creditors alike. On 23 July, the House of Representatives passed the second and third readings of a proposed amendment to the Civil Procedure Code, submitted by the Ministry of Justice. A key component of the reform is a significant reduction in enforcement fees, charges applied during the compulsory execution of court rulings in civil cases. The move is intended to promote fairer legal proceedings, reduce obstacles to debt repayment and improve the likelihood of successful mediation between disputing parties. “This legal amendment targets a long-standing issue where debt settlements have often failed because debtors simply couldn’t afford the enforcement fees,” said Minister Tawee. “By lowering these costs, we are creating a fairer system that encourages repayment and gives creditors a better chance of recovering their money.” The revised fee structure includes the following reductions: 1. Fee for auction or sale of seized property – reduced from 3% to 2%. 2. Fee for disbursing seized or garnished funds to creditors– reduced from 2% to 1%. 3. Fee for seizure of non-monetary assets without sale or disposal – waived entirely (previously 2%). 4. Fee for seizure or garnishment of money or assets without sale – waived entirely (previously 1%). 5. Fee for auction conducted directly between parties – reduced from 2% to 1%. These changes are expected to lower costs within the enforcement process, helping debtors to settle their obligations more quickly and allowing creditors to receive larger payments. Furthermore, it is hoped that the reforms will encourage more parties to enter mediation during enforcement proceedings, thereby reducing court backlogs and easing pressure on the judicial system. The government believes this amendment will provide much-needed relief for household debt, support long-term economic sustainability and foster greater balance within both the economy and society. Minister Tawee affirmed that the initiative reflects the government’s commitment to justice and fairness for all sectors of the population. Adapted by Asean Now from SiamNews 2025-07-28 -
