BANGKOK, Nov 19 (TNA) - The Thai government has extended every effort to help Thai engineer detained on espionage charges in Cambodia as close coordination carried out between legal officers at the Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh and his employer, affirmed Dr Panitan Wattanayakorn, deputy secretary-general to the prime minister.
Cambodia Air Traffic Services (CATS) employee Siwarak Chutipong, 31, was arrested in Phnom Penh on spying charges last week when he was discovered releasing Thaksin Shinawatra’s flight schedule to a Thai embassy official in Phnom Penh.
Dr Panitan, who is also acting government spokesman, told reporters that Thailand's agencies concerned had working together to help release Mr Siwarak.
As for the report that Cambodian soldiers raided the CATS office, Dr Panitan said he believed it was done under Cambodian legal procedures to find evidence to support the accusation.
He added that the incident was not serious to the extent that the Cambodian government would revoke the CATS contract.
CATS is wholly-owned by the Samart Corporation and received a concession from the Cambodian government to supply aeronautical radio and air traffic control services to Cambodia.
Asked whether convicted ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra posted gossip on twitter, a social networking website, that he would visit the Thai-Cambodian border, would cause more problem, Mr Panitan said the government did not want the relationship between Thailand and Cambodia to further deteriorated further.
However, the former premier would be arrested if he entered Thai soil and stayed at border line in the northeastern region, he said.
Meanwhile, Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva affirmed that the government would care for Thai investors in Cambodia.
The control of CATS by Cambodian authorities and Thai employees were not allowed to enter the company was considered the Cambodian security measure as the Thai engineer's charge involved its national security, he said.
He had asked to Ministry of Foreign Affairs to see the agreement on investor protection and CATS planned to later consult with the ministry on how to protect its concession in Cambodia.

i dont know what's wrong with abhisit policy or hidden agenda but since he took the power in thailand, he created conflict with Cambodia to allow yuons to expand more its market and power in Cambodia. Hun sen used this thai khmer issue to run his fake nationalist among xambodians to earn popularity and more power
If abhisit did that for power, shame on him. If he did that to help thais, he is a fool and no shit about policy. But he is conspire with yuons to help yuons to complete eating Cambodia then Thailand, he was a yuon clone, not a thai nationalist
