Thaksin to visit Cambodia this Friday : Hun Sen

Former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra will make his visit to Cambodia this Friday to join the Asian Economic Future Conference, not to negotiate with Cambodia on oil and gas issues, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Monday.

 

"Thaksin's visit plan to Cambodia was scheduled before the official visit plan of the newly elected Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, who will visit Cambodia on Sept. 15," he said during a graduation ceremony of 4,100 students at the National University of Management.

"But the visit of Thaksin on Sept. 16 and stay until Sept. 24 is to join Asian Economic Future Conference, organized by the Royal Academy of Cambodia, not to talk with Cambodia on oil and gas issues," Hun Sen was quoted by China's state-owned Xinhua news agency.
