29 February 2024 – In Parliament, Mr Noppadon Pattama, MP from the Pheu Thai Party list, gave an interview on the case of Ms Paethongthan Shinawatra, leader of the Pheu Thai Party. Preparing to travel to Cambodia in March this year, you said that you heard about the Cambodian People’s Party. You invited the executive committee of the Pheu Thai Party to travel. This is probably a discussion about party issues rather than government issues. . There will probably be no negotiations on the overlapping of areas by sea. But it’s probably more about strengthening the relationship. And the leader of the Pheu Thai Party has just taken office. Therefore, cooperation with various political parties in Asia must already exist.
The reporter asked: Whether or not His Royal Highness Prince Decho Hun Sen or King Hun Sen Chairman of the Privy Council of the Kingdom of Cambodia Former Prime Minister of Cambodia Traveling to meet Mr. Thaksin Shinawatra, former Prime Minister, will influence the negotiations on the overlapping areas of Thailand and Cambodia? Mr Noppadon said the two are old friends, having respected each other for 30 years, and their relationship is quite close. The implication is probably just this. There is no courtship between the two political families, but it is better to be friends than enemies. Personal diplomacy is still important. But we must also respect the interests of the country.
When asked about the relationship between Mr. Thaksin and King Hun Sen. Will this make the negotiations easier or not? Mr Noppadon said the relationship between Mr Settha Thavisin, prime minister and finance minister, and Hun Manet, prime minister of Cambodia, is quite good. He does not want to be associated with Mr Thaksin. Because it is first a matter of negotiation in the government with which General Prawit Wongsuwan, former deputy prime minister, had negotiated. This issue has been continuously implemented by every government for 23 years and is a difficult issue. We must continue to negotiate. and must pass the JTC committee. Therefore, we confirm that there is no ambiguity.
Mr Noppadon added that let’s tell each other the truth. Because this issue is in the national interest. and energy security Anything you don’t agree with is submitted to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. But don’t say Thailand has lost Koh Kood. not true Don’t box below the belt. Let’s talk about the law.
When asked about the relationship between the Thai and Cambodian governments. Will this make the negotiation results good? Mr. Noppadol said: “When people love each other, trust each other. You will be able to talk easily, as if you had a boyfriend or girlfriend. If you are paranoid and constantly looking at other people’s phones, it will be difficult. Building trust is important. If the relationship is good If the chemicals match, it is easy to negotiate. I will say we can’t flirt with each other.”
