BANGKOK: Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to construct a border fence in the Chanthaburi–Trat area after both sides signed technical documents for demarcation.
On Saturday (Nov 8), progress was reported in the border fence construction project under the supervision of the Chanthaburi–Trat Border Defence Command.
Both foreign ministries have now completed the signing and approval of the Technical Instruction (TI) for surveying and installing temporary boundary markers between boundary posts No. 52–59, marking completion of Steps 1 and 2 of the process.
Next, both sides will proceed with Step 3 — joint field surveys and installation of temporary markers, which is expected to take place soon following mutual agreement.
