Ministry wants end to Preah Vihear resolutions

The move aims to clear the Cabinet's docket, since the resolutions allowing former foreign minister Noppadon Pattama to sign a joint communiqué supporting Cambodia were already nullified.

Also, Phnom Penh did not use the joint communiqué when applying for the listing.

The ministry hopes that the termination of the resolutions might encourage the Administrative Court to drop the case, especially since the subject no longer exists, an official said.

The Administrative Court issued a contemporary injunction barring the Cabinet from using the resolution to support Cambodia, but it still has to issue a final decision on the subject.
