Cambodia appealed its citizens not to travel to Thailand
Cambodia’s government has warned its citizens not to travel to Thailand before Thailand’s Supreme Court issue a decision on whether to seize $2.2 billion from former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.
Koy Kuong, spokesman for the ministry of foreign affair, was quoted by the VOA Khmer as saying that “those who live there should avoid demonstrations and gatherings, to avoid any danger.”
Most of the poor Cambodian people always cross the border in order to find work in Thailand every day, as estimated 200,000 Cambodians are employed in Thailand.
The diplomatic ties between Cambodia and Thailand were cut off after ousted premier Thaksin was appointed as adviser to Cambodia’s government and Prime Minister Hun Sen.
