(Phnom Penh): Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet expressed hope that Thailand will continue to fully implement the agreements reached in the Joint Statement of the 3rd Special General Border Committee (GBC) between the two countries.

In a message posted on his social media on Saturday night (Apr. 11), Samdech Thipadei reaffirmed that since ceasefire in December, both Cambodia and Thailand have always declared respect and adherence to the agreements reached in the Joint Statement (JS) of the 3rd Special General Border Committee (GBC) between the Kingdom of Cambodia and the Kingdom of Thailand on 27 December 2025.

“For this reason, Cambodia hopes that Thailand will continue to adhere to the implementations of the JS agreement, in particular Point 3 which states that:

Both sides agree that all arrangements under this Joint Statement are without prejudice to the border demarcation and international boundary between the two countries. Both sides agree to refer to the Joint Boundary Commission to resume, at the earliest, the survey and demarcation works, in accordance with existing agreements between the two countries to achieve lasting peace along the border. Both sides agree to utilize Joint Boundary Commission’s existing mechanisms to ensure safety and security of the joint survey team on the ground, including its safety from landmines. Both sides agree that the Joint Boundary Commission will accord the first and foremost priority for the immediate survey and demarcation works in the affected border areas where the civilians resided,” he added.

Samdech Thipadei also underlined Cambodia’s strong hope that the Joint Border Commissions of both countries can begin implementing works, as agreed in JS (Point 3), quickly and with sincerity, so that the two sides can properly and clearly demarcate border in a peaceful manner. This will be foundation for long-lasting peace that would allow the people living a long shared border to live peacefully.

“Cambodia is fully ready,” he affirmed.
