Cambodian and Thai officials have held talks to prevent more fighting on their border after months of tensions over land near an ancient temple flared up into deadly gunbattles.
A third Thai soldier died in hospital following Friday's clashes, which plunged relations between the neighbors to a new low.
Military officials from both sides met over lunch in disputed territory near the 11th century Preah Vihear temple yesterday, while Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen was arranging to meet Thai officials in Phnom Penh.
Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said he would raise the issue with Hun Sen at a Southeast Asian summit in Thailand this week.

Damn, Son! No wonder why Thai military was so quick to send in 1000 special forces, more tanks and personnel carriers. We fucked them up good and they got the fuck knocked out of them and try to get up eh. Our military didn't even blink and just stand there and say "wanna go again?"
