Malaysia ready to host Thai–Cambodian talks in Kuala Lumpur
Malaysia signals readiness to host Thai–Cambodian talks to keep the ceasefire on track after the latest flare-up along the border.
Malaysia’s national news agency Bernama reported that Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan has confirmed Kuala Lumpur’s readiness to host upcoming talks between Thailand and Cambodia, following fresh tensions along the border.
He said discussions are expected to take place soon, adding that Malaysia stands prepared to facilitate a peaceful resolution for both sides.
“If the meeting takes place, it will be held in Malaysia, as the two countries currently lack mutual trust,” Mohamad Hasan said.
Earlier, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim contacted his Thai and Cambodian counterparts – Anutin Charnvirakul and Hun Manet – to discuss the latest developments.
In a Facebook post, he reaffirmed Malaysia’s commitment to acting as a facilitator in easing tensions.
Anwar expressed hope that both nations would demonstrate the resolve needed to restore stability along the frontier, ensuring lasting peace in the region and safeguarding the wellbeing of their people.
