The Thai military and security agencies had lodged a protest with Cambodia seeking an explanation of the incident, which would determine how Thailand responds, Mr Anutin said. “The government of Cambodia reiterates their firm, sincere commitment to respect and implement the terms of the peace accords between Cambodia and Thailand, signed last year in July and October and the last one on Dec 27,” the Cambodian statement said.
