Constructive dialogue the way forward to resolve Thai–Cambodian maritime dispute
Today 06:38Key points summarised by AI
Thailand and Cambodia reached a significant agreement on confidence-building measures, signaling a potential breakthrough in their protracted maritime dispute in the Gulf of Thailand.
Thailand shifted its hardline stance, now endorsing constructive dialogue and refraining from confrontational statements to improve the atmosphere for negotiations.
The agreed measures emphasize positive public communication, combating misinformation, and restoring high-level diplomatic presence to foster an environment conducive to a settlement.
While non-binding, adherence to these measures is crucial for both countries to maintain credibility with the Conciliation Commission and ensure progress in the dispute resolution process.
Son of Myanmar's Aung San Suu Kyi says had first call in five years
Yesterday 17:18Key points summarised by AI
Kim Aris, son of Myanmar's detained former leader Aung San Suu Kyi, spoke with his mother for the first time in over five years, expressing immense relief but underscoring her ongoing unjust detention.
Suu Kyi, 81, has been under house arrest since the 2021 military coup, with her son emphasizing that a single conversation does not constitute regular family access.
This rare contact follows recent, limited relaxations of her detention by Myanmar authorities, including public appearances and receiving a package from King Charles III, which analysts suggest may be an attempt to court international legitimacy for the military regime.
