Thailand on Friday welcomed Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen's wills to peacefully resolve the border conflict around Preah Vihear temple through existing bilateral mechanisms.
Hun Sen expressed the wishes on Wednesday to end the border disputes with Thailand on bilateral basis and through peaceful means following the military stand off since the mid of last month.
Thai Foreign Ministry issued a statement on Friday to welcome Hun Sen's stance, saying it also wished to find a solution to the issue of the Temple of Preah Vihear in a peaceful and amicable manner.
The statement said the issue should make full use of the existing bilateral mechanisms, including meetings between the two Foreign Ministers, the Thai-Cambodian Joint Boundary Commission (JBC) and the General Border Committee (GBC).
Foreign ministers of the two countries would hold their second meeting on border dispute in the third week of this month in resort beach of Hua Hin.
Both countries agreed to redeploy troops around the areas following the fist meeting between foreign minister Tej Bunnag and his Cambodia counterpart Hor Namhong in Siem Reap late last month.
Differences of views on boundary issues between two neighbouring countries are not unusual, the Thai foreign ministry's statement said.
This issue is just one small part of the overall relations between Thailand and Cambodia. The two countries have a myriad of common interests and wide-ranging cooperation in the economic, political, social and other dimensions, it said.
