PHNOM PENH, Cambodia - Cambodia's prime minister
reiterated his call for a peaceful solution to a border dispute with
Thailand, warning Wednesday that both countries's economies would suffer
if the conflict erupts into a full-scale war. ADVERTISEMENT In his first
public speech since winning national elections last month, Prime Minister
Hun Sen said both countries must "narrow the conflict and expand
friendship and cooperation." Thai and Cambodian troops have been
facing off along their shared border for three weeks over disputed
territory — first near Preah Vihear temple and then at Ta Moan Thom
temple. Hun Sen's comments came as the confrontation at Ta Moan Thom
appeared to be easing, with both sides pulling back their soldiers.
