'Kasit Piromya' attends Mekong-Japan Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Cambodia

BANGKOK, Oct 3 (TNA) – Thai Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya and his diplomatic counterparts from Cambodia, Lao, Myanmar, and Vietnam, are meeting Saturday with newly-appointed Japanese Foreign Minister Katsuya Okada in the northwest Cambodian city of Siem Reap to review progress and set the direction for continued cooperation in regional development.

The Second Mekong-Japan Foreign Ministers’ Meeting is being chaired by Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Affairs Minister Hor Namhong and is being attended by Mr. Okada along with the foreign ministers of Lao, Myanmar, Vietnam and Thailand.

On the sidelines of the Mekong meeting, Mr. Hor Namhong will also chair the Second Foreign Ministers’ Meeting regarding Emerald Triangle Cooperation between Cambodia, Laos and Thailand.

Under the Second Mekong-Japan Foreign Ministers’ Meeting, Japan, which has actively assisted the Mekong region countries, is expected to offer continued commitment to regional development with its vision to create an ‘East Asian Community’.

The meeting is aimed at improving regional infrastructure and human resources, as well as reducing poverty, and will pave the way for a leaders’ summit later this year.

In the afternoon, the foreign ministers of Cambodia, Laos and Thailand will meet under the Emerald Triangle Cooperation umbrella in which they are expected to commit to expanded cooperation in tourism, infrastructure and trade.

The Emerald Triangle Cooperation framework consists of the three neighbouring countries joining together to utilise the combined tourism resources of the sub-region for the mutual benefit of the participating countries. The strengths in the tourism industry of each member country will enhance the combined potential in this sector and promote tourism in the sub-region.

It will also help generate growth and reduce income disparity in the three countries and enhance the well being of people at the grassroots level.

In the afternoon Mr Kasit will hold bilateral talks with the newly-appointed Japanese foreign minister over common interests and plans to develop the Mekong Sub-Region.

ส.ว.ของไทย 40 คน พยายามทำ และ คิดปิดบังสันดานของตนอยาก เปลี่ยนชื่อหมู่บ้านต่าง ๆ ตามชายแดนกัมพูชา-ไทยที่มีชื่อเป็นภาษา
กัมพูชาให้เป็นภาษาไทยให้หมด กูขอบอกมึงเลย ถึงแม้จะเปลี่ยนชื่อ เป็นภาษาอะไร ความจริงก็ยังคงอยู่ เหมือนที่พวกเองได้ขโมย ดินแดนของกัมพูชาเมื่อสมัยสุโขทัย แล้วมาพูดได้อย่างไรว่า คนเขมร ไว้ใจไม่ได้ บรรพบุรุษของชาติกัมพูชาไม่เคยเป็นโจร ขโมยดินแดน ของใคร....

some siem people need to stop being ignorant and being extremist. there are more to the world, ok. for your information, siem nation and people aren't the only race and nation on the planet, ok. there are cambodia, etc, as well, so you siem people must respect the international law and make cambodia and khmer people proud of you for setting good example for us and more. your siem gov't should be ablet to better control your extremist pad thugs and tell or educate them all that your nation have to respect the international law, ok. cambodia is a sovereigned nation with rich culture and tradition, etc; your siem people need to be educated about cambodia, ok! you either choose good karma or bad karma, it's your choice, but keep reminding your own people that like it or not cambodia is your eternal neighbor. so work with us or choose to remain our eternal enemies; it's your choice, really! god bless cambodia.

Every neighbour needs to respect each other’s boundary in order to keep its own citizen in place or otherwise if war occurs again, it will go into another chaos. We Asian nations need to find solutions for peace in order to protect our future generation from harm and finding ways to protect all individuals as well like; all for one and one for all and that everyone is equally important regardless who they are or where they come from. Asian nation needs to create an international security net to protect everyone who may travel to and from each other’s country. We Asian nation must reach a common ground, goal and common interest for the best of our society e.g. if one nation needs help the rest must come together as one. We also need to use the system like European nations, creating a one currency of "Euro" or maybe we can call our currency as "Asiano or "Asian-mono". Just remember, the power of love, compassion, share, and respect can be conquered.Aust
