BANGKOK: Any deal on overlapping continental shelf claims between Thailand and Cambodia in the Gulf of Thailand must be acceptable to the people of the two countries, Minister of Foreign Affairs Maris Sangiampongsa (pic) said on Wednesday (Nov 6).
The parliaments of both countries must approve the outcome of the negotiations, based on proposals from their respective cabinets, and must act as representatives of the people to decide whether to endorse the agreement. Additionally, the agreement must comply with international and relevant laws.
