Thai-Cambodia trade fair in Phnom Penh will go ahead: Hun Sen

A joint trade fair to be held in Cambodia this week will go ahead as scheduled despite military clashes at the border near Preah Vihear Temple, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Tuesday said Tuesday.

“Trades with Thailand are still normal,” he said during opening the construction of a 144-km road in Banteay Meanchey province which is adjacent to Sa Kaeo province of Thailand.

He said that a Thai deputy prime minister will come to Phnom Penh to open the trade fair to be held between Thursday and Sunday.

“We have to continue cooperation on all other sectors with Thailand. The area that has disputed, we resolve at that area and contain it from spreading further,” he said.
