17/07/2008 -- 5:15 PM

Bangkok (VNA) – A special session of Thailand and Cambodia’s General Border Committee (GBC) will be held on July 21 in the former's northeastern province of Sa Kaeo, local media reported.

The GBC, a bilateral mechanism co-chaired by the Thai and Cambodia ministers of defence, or their representatives, was set up to address issues related to disputed borders between the two countries. It was scheduled to hold its next session in August, according to the Bangkok Post.

However, the two sides have agreed to hold urgent talks sooner than scheduled as tensions over temple Pread Vihear on Thai-Cambodian border were raised. –Enditem
