BANGKOK, Nov. 11 (Xinhua) -- It is sad that Cambodia has refused to extradite ousted former Thai premier Thaksin Shinawatra to Thailand, Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said Wednesday.
"Cambodia has not followed international principle," the Thai prime minister was quoted by Thai News Agency as saying.
Hence, the Thai government has planned to review aid projects for Cambodia, Abhisit announced.
However, the diplomatic standoff between the two neighboring governments will not affect the relationships between the people of the two countries as there is no policy to close the Thai-Cambodian border, Abhisit said.
Also, the Thai government will not use any military force to deal with this bilateral problem, he said.
But, the Thai government will be stricter for Thais who will travel for gambling in Cambodia, Abhisit said.
Meanwhile, Abhisit has not been convinced after Thaksin claimed earlier he can be mediation for Thailand and Cambodia to solve the problem.
Abhisit said he has doubted over Thaksin's announcement since Thaksin himself is the origin of the ongoing bilateral problem.
Thailand and Cambodia have downgraded their diplomatic relations due to conflict over an appointment of Thaksin as an economic advisor to Cambodia's government on Nov. 4.
A day after the appointment of Thaksin, the Cambodian government announced recall of its ambassador to Thailand in a move to respond to the Thai government's recall of its ambassador to Cambodia.
Thaksin, who arrived in Cambodia on Tuesday, will on Thursday hold a briefing with over 300 Cambodian economics experts at the Ministry of Economy and Finance, Hun Sen said earlier.
Thaksin was ousted by the military coup in September 2006, in accusation of corruption, and has been kept in exile since then.
He returned to Thailand in February 2008 to face corruption charges, but he later fled into exile again and was convicted in absentia.

Dear Abhisit Ah Hun Sen Sen do not know how to drink the sweet wine,what ever Thai has just give to that mother fucker Hun Sen tastes it own medicine,or ah Hun Sen need more ask the States they might has more advances toys.
I wonder why all media report "Thailand and Cambodia have downgraded their diplomatic relations"?
Actually, it was Siem who started and Cambodia only followed the step.
No matter how Siem (the yellow shirt) people feel the pain right now, but I can assure you that it is far less than how Khmer people feel about the invasion of Siem soldiar to areas around Preah Vihear.
Thank Mr. Hun Sen for this. But this is the least in my heart that the RGC should have done. We now should re-submit our request for international intevention regarding Preah Vihear issue caused by Siem Abhisit.
Dear Abisit,
You should start fighting Cambodia now otherwise your Thailand will lose your reputation to this big world !!! How the face your Hero King now ????????????? I think your king and your self very scare to Hun Sen Power and Also the spirit of the Hero king of Cambodia Norodom Sihanouk!!!! If I were you or your king I will not let Cambodia standing and point to me like this !!!
Come on Abisit, please be stronger otherwise your thai people will lost trust on your Govt.
I agree with 3:59 For your face,dignity,and for your country the land of smile. Dont let hun sen to continouse to look down on your goverment make war with him now.
Oh, don't forget to target the Tuol Krasaing compound.
stop it, Vietnamese! people know what your comments mean
Whatever Thailand try to do, they will lose its face. Right now the world is rebuilding Cambodia, if Thailand dare touch it; you will have problem not just Cambodian but the whole world. Preah Vichear is Cambodian's heart; you are not going to get it back.
Just give the Angkor Wat and Preah Vihear temples back to the Thai, then we will not encounter problems or trouble now or in the future. I believe it is a very wise decision.
If Abhullshit is not being the GREED or not overreacting there shouldn't be a problem.
There was a former Pervian president name Fuji Alberto Mori which he is Japanese descent was charged with corruption and killing he escaped to Japan and Peru request the Japan to send him back to Peru and Japan declined the request. Peru had extradition with the two countries and Japan ignore that.
Hahaaa....Thailand can you look at this prime example????
Now you're showing your true colors.
Since when Angkor Wat and Preah Vihear is belong to Thai??
Tell me you moron!!
That's what happened in Thailand for learning fake history. All Thai younger and old generation is learning the fake and twisted history.
95% of Thailand belong to Khmer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With the way Hun Sen leading Cambodia now, I don't see how the world will support us in time of war. Arrest critics, murdered his own people, no freedom of expression, demonstration, threatening U.N. representative on Human Righs, intimidating NGO, uncivilized speech by Khmer leader, and not to mention rude behavior by Hun Sen.
