Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva on Thursday ordered an review of two road construction projects with Cambodia which involved loans of more than Bt1.4 bn to Phnom Penh.
The review is a further move of his government to protest Cambodia's appointment of convicted ex-Thai PM Thaksin Shinawatra as economic adviser to Khmer PM Hun Sen and his government.
Deputy Finance Minister Pruetichai Damrongrat told reporters that the No 68 road will link Chong Chom checkpoint in Surin province to Cambodia.
Meanwhile Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban said that the cabinet will not consider an financial assistance of Bt31 million to Cambodia in its meeting next week.
The proposal is put on hold as a measure of Thailand to protest Cambodia.
In a separate interview, Abhisit said he was considering further measures against Cambodia, but vowed that his government would not seal off checkpoints on the border and said that the rift with Phnom Pen would not lead to violence.
"I don't want the situation going out of control," he said.

You all follow these event from day one since Abullshit administration took office?
Here in order.
1-Abullshit object Hun Sen government to join ASEAN in 1997 or 98. And Abullshit lost.
2-Kasit want HUN SEN's blood to wash his feet. Then Kasit sorry.
This is a serious insulting matter toward HUN SEN. Now HUN SEN will make Abullshit feel more humiliate and sorry and ashame.
Abullshit will be removed from office soon. My prediction will be soon. And Monkey king Ahdulyadet will die soon too.
Considering the current situation between Cambodia and Thailand, I think Abhisit has a good cause to object Hun Sen since 1970s, if what you've written is true.
1970s Abullshit is still a kid running around naked.
