Foreign Affairs Minister Kasit Piromya on Monday will have a bilateral meeting with his Cambodian counterpart Hor Namhong on Monday.
Mr Kasit will use this opportunity to thank Cambodia for agreeing to join the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) summit, scheduled to be held in Hua Hin between February 27 and March 1.
During the meeting, both ministers would discuss the plan to open a permanent Thai-Cambodian border checkpoint in Sakaeo province. They would discuss tourism and cultural exchanges between the two countries.
Mr Kasit may also ask for pardons for two Thai-Muslims who were sentenced to a life imprisonment by the Cambodian court on charges of being involved with the terrorist group Jemaah Islamiyah (JI).
However, the ongoing border dispute around Preah Vihear temple in Si Sa Ket province would not be raised during this time.

bilateral issue shouldn't have anything to do with cambodia's preah vihear temple and the 1907 border treaty map as they is the real violation by thailand against this treaty and the icj verdict that had used this very treaty to come to a verdict at the time in 1962. so, stop dreaming, siem thugs!
