The government should make it clear whether the Thai-Cambodia border checkpoints would be closed, as traders and local residents on the border were worried, Pramote Ruamsuk, chairman of Chanthaburi Provincial Chamber of Commerce, said on Tuesday.
Mr Pramote was responding to a report saying that the border checkpoints would be shut down to prevent the red-shirts from going to see ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra who is now in Phnom Penh.
“There are altogether five checkpoints in Chanthaburi and the value of the province’s border trade is more than 100 million baht a day,” he said.
He said border trade was not being affected by the latest dispute between Bangkok and Phnom Penh at the moment.

Why should anyone allow them in? Are you that stupid Socheata?
What if the fake red shirts like PAD try to kill Thaskin?
One could be sure why the boder trade is not affected just look at the figure quoted below from the Fiancial Time.
"Thailand exported $1bn worth of goods to Cambodia in the first eight months of this year, compared with Cambodian exports of just $39m to Thailand."
