Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva and his Cambodian counter-part Hun Sen will meet on the sidelines of the Asean-US summit in New York late this month, government spokesman Panitan Wattanayagorn said yesterday.
Officials from the foreign ministries of the two countries were working closely to tee up a bilateral meeting between Abhisit and Hun Sen when they are in New York, Panitan said.
"It will be an informal and friendly meeting to discuss only cooperation, not issues of conflict," he said.
Thailand and Cambodia normalised diplomatic relations last month after former PM Thaksin Shinawatra stood down as an adviser to Hun Sen. However, problems remain over Preah Vihear. The Thai government has opposed moves to list the border temple as a World Heritage site due to a dispute over areas adjacent to the temple.
