[PHNOM PENH POST]
BORDER clashes between Cambodia and Thailand will not prevent a Thai
trade fair from taking place in Phnom Penh in May, the Thai ambassador
said yesterday through a spokesman for Prime Minister Hun Sen.
Speaking
on behalf of both Hun Sen and Thai ambassador Prasas Prasasvinitchai
while they were in a meeting yesterday, Eang Sophallet told reporters
the Prime Minister fully supported the upcoming trade fair and that he
didn’t want the February clashes in Preah Vihear province to disrupt
business. The sentiment expressed by Hun Sen was a continuation of
statements he made in February when the clashes first broke out.
During
his farewell meeting with Prime Minister Hun Sen, outgoing Thai
ambassador Prasas Prasasvinitchai said that the Diamond Island expo from
May 19 to 22 would boost trade relations.
