KUALA LUMPUR, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- Thai and Cambodian officials discussed the ceasefire agreement and terms of reference (TOR) during the talks, a Malaysian official said here on Tuesday.
Both matters needed to be finalized first to ensure that both parties understand and abide by them, including in terms of monitoring implementation by the ASEAN Defence Attaché Monitoring Team (AMT), Chief of Defence Forces General Mohd Nizam Jaffar told local media at a press briefing.
The AMT would play a role in ensuring that Thailand and Cambodia comply with the ceasefire agreement reached by both nations' leaders on July 28, he said.
The secretariat-level meeting of the Thailand-Cambodia General Border Committee (GBC) began on Aug. 4 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and is scheduled to run until Aug. 6. The meeting serves as a preparatory session for the upcoming Extraordinary GBC meeting set for Aug. 7. ■
