Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva is confident that the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation will postpone consideration of Cambodia's management plan for the disputed border area around the Preah Vihear temple ruins.
"We keep talking with Unesco. If they don't postpone it [as we have proposed], they should know that we can no longer work with them," Mr Abhisit said.
The premier's remarks came as the Thai delegation, headed by Natural Resources and Environment Minister Suwit Khunkitti, takes part in the annual Unesco meeting in France which began on Sunday and lasts until June 29.
Mr Abhisit said Cambodia was the only country that had opposed Thailand's proposal to delay consideration of the management plan.
Cambodia's proposed plan, which sets measures to manage the 11th-century Hindu ruins and nearby disputed area of 4.6 sq km, is opposed by Thailand. Bangkok wants the WHC to delay consideration of the plan until border demarcation work is completed.
Mr Suwit also expressed confidence that the World Heritage Committee would agree to postpone the plan.
Unesco director-general Irina Bokova understands the problem and wants Thailand and Cambodia to jointly seek a solution before seeking consensus from the committee, he said.
Thailand yesterday hosted a dinner for the WHC members to seek support to become the host of the annual meeting next year. Cambodia and Russia are also competing to be the host.

Stupid Thai, one day, they talk about 4.6km2 around the temple, the other day, they talk about Preah Vihear it self .They just can't make up their mind.
Cambodia should just boycott the UNESCO for now and just go with other institutions out there. There are plenty of other organization that will provide funding to help manage the temple.
Ahbishit, it should be the other way around! Since Cambodia and UNESCO can't work with you, why the UNESCO feel the heat from you?
UNESCO will let you walk. They can't let you keep on threatening Cambodia and UNESCO anymore.
Go ahead walk!!!!
BYE!!!!
WELCOME TO THE LAND OF DENIAL!
UNESCO should just stop working with Thailand and those stupid dumb Siem's and de list all of Thai's world heritage temples since none of their crappy burnt ugly temples isn't as famous or memorable and even known to the world as Khmer temples. UNESCO should know by now Siem's love to steal, loot and invade they were born that way and they shouldn't work for criminals.
If I were UNESCO committee, I'd show the Thai (That way is the door). Please walk out!!
Garcia, Italy.
Thailand is interfering with the UNESCO by threatening them with violence and now not working with the UNESCO. Thailand has no business to interfering in the business of the UNESCO. They cannot just claiming hot air because of jealousy.
it's like a thief threaten the home owner to give up the home to the thief or else the thief will come and rob them again. it's siem's threat! i hope unesco tells siem to back off, enough is enough, either you respect the law or the world will not hear siem's tantrum at all, really!
U know child always cry when it wants something which is not belong to. Dont worry about that. Cambodia will be accepted by UNESCO mgt plan. Because UNESCO make decision based on global human and not refer to political issue. 21 committee will be voted for this temple to be protected. if not, this temple will be further damage, so UNESCO has to protect and conservation for human being because it is not only for Cambodia people but also for world human.
Someone or unesco needs to arrest abshit and put his thief ass in jail.
Idiot Abhicrab only knows how to threat.
He thinks he can use threat in the international just like he threat his own people.
