BANGKOK: Malaysia's Defence Attaché to Thailand, Brigadier General Samsul Rizal Musa, has led an interim observer team to inspect the Thailand-Cambodia border to monitor the implementation of the ceasefire and ensure the process remains transparent and impartial. The three-day inspection, hosted by the Royal Thai Armed Forces from Monday to Aug 20, covered the Ubon Ratchathani, Si Sa Ket and Surin provinces. It involved 14 representatives from eight Asean member states namely Malaysia, Brunei, Laos, Indonesia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore and Vietnam. Samsul emphasised the team's commitment to maintaining transparency in ensuring both countries uphold the ceasefire agreement to restore peace and stability. He added that the observer team conducted on-site inspections in border areas that have recently been a flashpoint. "The observer team is tasked with observing the implementation of the ceasefire arrangement by both countries, and with gathering and compiling information, data, facts, and inputs to ensure a transparent and fair process without taking sides," he told Bernama when contacted on Tuesday.
