Border Talks End in Stalemate

TNA reports that "hopes of securing a Cambodian commitment to re-opening the Preah Vihear border crossing were dashed today after a marathon discussion with the deputy governor of Cambodian Preah Vihear Province, in which the Cambodian authorities emerged refusing to make any promises."

Apparently earlier claims about re-opening the border were premature.

The deputy governor of Preah Vihear Province insisted that the agreement to re-open the border on 20 May was one made between Thai and Cambodian soldiers, and that the provincial governor – the only person with the authority to order the re-opening – had not been informed.
