Ex-Thai Leader Embraces Cambodian PM

Thailand’s former prime minister appeared in neighboring Cambodia Saturday for high level talks with that country’s leadership.

Thaksin Shinawatra publicly embraced Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen during a meeting in Phnom Penh. Officials said the two were scheduled to discuss a variety of issues, including trade, an ongoing border dispute and the release of two Thai prisoners.

Mr. Thaksin’s visit comes just days after his sister, current Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, traveled to Phnom Penh for high level talks.
