Tensions over border disputes had sharply escalated in July during a five-day conflict between the neighbouring countries.
Thailand’s Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has announced plans for a referendum to address an ongoing border dispute with Cambodia, following a significant conflict in July that resulted in at least 48 fatalities. He aims to clarify public sentiment towards the existing agreements, which have faced scrutiny, while also focusing on economic issues and a push for a new constitution.
